Charging Instructions
Charging Status and
Settings
The charging screen displays on the
touchscreen whenever the charge port door
is open. To display the charging screen at any
time:
Touch the charging icon
on the "Cards" area on the
touchscreen.
The charging screen displays a representative
image of the status of the Battery and
information about your charging session
including:
• Charging rate (in kilowatt hours, miles per
hour, or kilometers per hour, depending on
your display setting).
• Added energy or estimated increase in
driving distance achieved so far in this
charging session (in kilowatt hours, miles
per hour, or kilometers per hour, depending
on your display setting).
• Current supplied/available from the
connected power supply.
• Voltage supplied by the charge cable.
NOTE: To change how energy units are
displayed, touch Controls > Display > Energy
Display.
NOTE: The following illustration is provided
for demonstration purposes only and may

1. Charge status messages (such as
Charging, Charging Scheduled) display
here. While charging, the estimated time
remaining to achieve your set limit is also
displayed.
2. Adjust the charge limit by touching Set
Limit, and drag the arrow to move the
charge limit setting. The setting you choose
applies to immediate and scheduled
charging sessions.
3. The current automatically sets to the
maximum current available from the
attached charge cable, unless it was
previously reduced to a lower level. If
needed, touch - or + to change the current
(for example, you may want to reduce the
current if you are concerned about
overloading a domestic wiring circuit
shared by other equipment). It is not
possible to set the charging current to a
level that exceeds the maximum available
from the attached charge cable. When you
change the current, Model 3 remembers the
location. If you charge at the same location,
you do not need to change it again.
