Summary
Tesla
does not provide physical owner's manual copies. Instead, all available owner?s manual content is integrated into the vehicle software, and only the content relevant for a given vehicle, based on vehicle configuration and software version installed, is displayed on its touchscreen. This file contains all available owner?s manual content for Model Y vehicles converted to PDF format, and given the distribution method and NHTSA?s submission format requirements, it is the best available representative copy of owner?s manual content. However, a customer who accesses the owner?s manual via their vehicle?s touchscreen would only see the parts of this PDF file that are relevant to their vehicle.
Acceleration and charging performance reduced
What this alert means:
Your vehicle has detected a condition internal to the high voltage battery
that is limiting the battery’s performance.
You may notice that your vehicle's top speed is reduced and it responds slower than previously to acceleration
requests.
Your vehicle's maximum range may be reduced, and your vehicle may take longer to charge than before. Maximum
charge rate varies, as always, based on location, power source, and charging equipment.
Service is required to restore full performance.
What to do:
Your vehicle is OK to drive.
It is recommended that you schedule service at your earliest opportunity. Without service, your vehicle may continue
to show reduced power, acceleration, range, and charging performance.
While this alert remains present, keep your vehicle charged to 30% capacity or higher to avoid any discrepancy
between the estimated range displayed on your vehicle's touchscreen and the actual high voltage battery
charge
level.
For more information on the high voltage battery
, see High Voltage Battery
Information on page 238.
BMS_a069
Battery charge level low
Charge now
What this alert means:
Your vehicle has detected that the high voltage battery
does not have enough energy remaining to support driving.
This alert is usually present because your vehicle's high voltage battery
charge level has been reduced through
normal operation.
Your vehicle will be unable to drive or continue driving until charged.
If this alert is present while you are driving, your vehicle needs to shut down. A separate vehicle alert should be
present to indicate this condition. It is also possible your vehicle may shut down unexpectedly.
If this alert is present when your vehicle is parked, you may be unable to drive.
What to do:
319
Owners Manual
Charge your vehicle immediately. Charging your vehicle should restore your vehicle's ability to drive.
If this alert occurs during subsequent drives, despite a displayed battery charge level of 5% or higher, schedule
service at your earliest convenience.

CP_a004
Charging equipment not recognized
Try again or try different equipment
What this alert means:
The charge port is unable to detect whether a charge cable is inserted, or the type of charge cable connected.
This alert is usually specific to external charging equipment and power sources and does not typically indicate an
issue with your vehicle that can be resolved by scheduling service.
What to do:
If this alert appears while a charge cable is connected, determine whether the issue is caused by the charging
equipment or the vehicle. Try charging the vehicle using different external charging equipment (including charge
cable, charging station, or charging stall).
• If the vehicle begins charging, the issue was likely with the equipment.
330
Owners Manual
• If the vehicle still does not charge, the issue may be with the vehicle.
If this alert appears while a charge cable is not connected or if the issue is suspected to be with the vehicle, inspect
the charge port inlet and the charge cable connector for any obstructions, such as debris, moisture, and/or foreign
objects. Make sure any charge port inlet obstruction has been removed and any moisture has been allowed to dry,
then try re-inserting the cable into the charge port.
You can also try charging your vehicle using a Tesla Supercharger
or Destination Charging location, all of which can
be located through the map on your vehicle's touchscreen display. See Maps and Navigation on page 224 for more

Charging equipment communication error
Try again or try different equipment
What this alert means:
Your vehicle is unable to charge because it cannot communicate effectively with the external charging equipment. It
cannot sense a valid control pilot signal coming from the charging equipment.
This alert is usually specific to external charging equipment and power sources and does not typically indicate an
issue with your vehicle that can be resolved by scheduling service.
What to do:
First, confirm the lack of effective communication is caused by the external charging equipment rather than an issue
with your vehicle. This is usually the case.
Try charging the vehicle using different external charging equipment (including charge cable, charging station, or
charging stall).
• If the vehicle begins charging, the issue was likely with the equipment.
• If the vehicle still does not charge, the issue may be with the vehicle.
If the issue is suspected to be with the vehicle, inspect the charge port inlet and the charge cable connector for any
obstructions, such as debris, moisture, and/or foreign objects. Make sure any charge port inlet obstruction has been
removed and any moisture has been allowed to dry, then try re-inserting the cable into the charge port.

CP_a046
Charging equipment communication lost
Check power source and charging equipment
What this alert means:
Charging stopped because communication between the vehicle and the external charging equipment was
interrupted.
This alert is usually specific to external charging equipment and power sources and does not typically indicate an
issue with your vehicle that can be resolved by scheduling service.
What to do:
Confirm whether the external charging equipment is powered by looking for any status lights, displays, or other
indicators on the equipment.
If the equipment is not powered, try to restore the external charging equipment’s power source.
• If attempting to charge at a public station and power is unable to be restored, contact the station operator.
• If attempting to charge at a private station (for example: charging at home) and power is unable to be restored,
contact an electrician.
If the equipment is powered, try charging the vehicle using different external charging equipment.
• If the vehicle begins charging, the issue was likely with the equipment.
• If the vehicle still does not charge, the issue may be with the vehicle.
