Cold Weather Best Practices
• Slow down your driving and avoid frequent and rapid
acceleration.
Regenerative Braking
Regenerative braking can be limited if the Battery is too
cold. As you continue to drive, the Battery warms up
and regenerative power increases (see
Braking on page 88).
NOTE: Limited regenerative braking can be avoided if
you allow enough time to precondition your vehicle or if
you use Schedule to precondition Cybertruck before
your departure time (see
page 171).
Cold Battery
A blue snowflake icon appears on your
touchscreen when some of the stored energy in
the Battery is unavailable because the Battery is
cold. This portion of unavailable energy displays
in blue on the Battery meter. Regenerative
braking, acceleration, and charging rates may be
limited. The snowflake icon no longer displays
when the Battery is sufficiently warm.
After Driving
Leave Cybertruck plugged in when not in use. This uses
the charging system, rather than the Battery itself, to
keep the Battery warm (see
Information on page 167).
Scheduled Departure
When parked, plug in Cybertruck and use the Schedule
settings, available on both the charging and climate
control screens, to set a time when you want to
precondition Cybertruck (see
on page 171). You can also use Schedule to prevent the
charge port latch freezing in place. Your vehicle
determines the appropriate time to begin charging so it
is complete during off-peak hours and the cabin and
Battery are warm by your set departure time.
Storage
If you leave Cybertruck parked for an extended period
of time, plug the vehicle into a charger to prevent
normal range loss and to keep the Battery at an optimal
temperature. Your vehicle is safe to stay plugged in for
any length of time.
When not in use, Cybertruck enters a sleep mode to
conserve energy. Reduce the number of times you check
your vehicle's status on the mobile app, as this
automatically wakes up your vehicle and starts normal
energy consumption.
