Maintaining Tire Pressures
Keep tires inflated to the pressures shown on the Tire
and Loading Information label, even if it
differs from the
pressure printed on the tire itself. The Tire and Loading
Information label is located on the center door pillar and
is visible when the front door is open.
NOTE: If your Model 3 is fitted with Tesla accessory
wheels or tires, some information may be
different from
the labels on the vehicle.
See Accessory Wheels and
Tires on page 174.
The Tire Pressure indicator light on the
touchscreen alerts you if one or more tires
is under-
or over-inflated.
The Tire Pressure indicator light does not immediately
turn off when you adjust tire pressure. After inflating the
tire to the recommended pressure, you must drive over
15 mph (25 km/h) for more than 10 minutes to activate
the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), which turns
off the Tire Pressure indicator light.
If the indicator light flashes for one minute whenever
you power on
Model 3, a fault with the TPMS is detected
(see
TPMS Malfunction on page 165).
NOTE: Display tire pressures in the "Cards" area, located
toward the bottom on the left side of the touchscreen
,
as described in Touchscreen Overview on page 4. You
can also choose whether you want to display tire pressures using Bar or PSI by touching
Controls >
Display > Tire Pressure.
WARNING: Under-inflation is the most common
cause of tire failures and can cause a tire to
overheat, resulting in severe tire cracking, tread
separation, or blowout, which causes unexpected
loss of vehicle control and increased risk of injury.
Under-inflation also reduces the vehicle
