Once inside, power up Model 3 by pressing the

the unlock button on the key fob (see Starting
and Powering Off on page 54). If you wait
longer than two minutes, you must press the
unlock button again, or place the key fob near
the card reader located behind the cup holders on the center console. When your key
fob is detected, the two minute authentication period restarts.
When approaching or leaving Model 3
carrying the key fob, you do not need to point the key fob at Model 3 as you press a button,
but you must be within operating range.
Radio equipment on a similar frequency can
affect the key. If this happens, move the key at
least one foot (30 cm) away from other electronic devices (phone, laptop, etc.).
If the key fob does not work (for example, its
battery is dead), you can touch its

mobile app installed and connected to the
vehicle’s Tesla account.
1. While sitting in the vehicle, open the Tesla
mobile app and select the appropriate
vehicle (if there are multiple vehicles
associated with the account), then touch
Phone Key > Start .
2. Scan an already-authenticated key card or
key fob on the key reader behind the cup
holders on the top of the center console.
3. When the mobile app notifies you that the
pairing was successful, touch Done. The
key list on the touchscreen ( Controls >
Locks ) displays the new phone key. The
name of the phone key is determined by
the name used in the phone’s settings.
Removing a key:
When you no longer want a key to access your
vehicle (for example, you lost your phone or key card, etc.), you can remove the key.
1. On the touchscreen, touch Controls >
Locks .
2. Find the key that you would like to delete
in the key list, then touch the key’s
associated trash icon.
3. When prompted, scan an already-
authenticated key card or key fob on the
key reader behind the cup holders on the
top of the center console to confirm the
deletion. When complete, the key list no
longer includes the deleted key.
Note: Your vehicle requires at least one
authenticated key card or key fob at all times.
If only one key card is included on the key list,
this key cannot be deleted.

as your Model 3 key, you can use the mobile
app to communicate with Model 3 remotely

Note: Power is available whenever the vehicle
is considered "awake". The vehicle may be
awake for many reasons. For example, when
using features such as Summon, or when features such as Cabin Overheat Protection,Keep Climate On, Dog Mode, Sentry Mode,
etc. are enabled. The vehicle is also awake
whenever the 12V battery is being charged or
is in use, during HV charging, when the vehicle
is communicating with the mobile app, etc. Leaving an accessory plugged in does notdeplete the 12V battery.
Note: Always use USB 2.0 compliant cables
when connecting devices to the USB ports.
Using non-compliant cables can result in
slower charging and, if plugged into either of the front two ports, can result in potential connection problems or degraded
performance when trying to access media files
on the device.
Note: Do not connect multiple devices using a
USB hub. This can prevent connected devices from charging or from being recognized by
Media Player, Sentry Mode, Dashcam, etc.
Installing Phone Charging Cable To make it easy to connect your phone while
keeping the console free of clutter, you can install a phone charging cable in Model 3.
Note: The phone dock supports two phones
side-by-side.
