See Maintaining Tire Pressures on page 243 for detailed information on where to find the recommended cold
pressure (RCP) for your vehicle's tires, how to check tire pressures, and how to keep your tires properly inflated.
This alert may appear in cold weather because the air in your tires naturally contracts when it becomes cold,
decreasing tire pressures.
What to do:
Add air to maintain the recommended cold tire pressure. Although drops in tire pressure are expected in colder
weather, the recommended cold tire pressure should be maintained at all times.
The alert may clear as the vehicle is driven. This is because the tires will warm up and the tire pressure will increase.
Even if the alert clears, the tires should still be refilled with air once they have cooled.
The alert will clear once the Tire Pressure Monitoring System detects that each of your tires is inflated to the
recommended cold pressure.
• The alert and Tire Pressure indicator light may still be present immediately after you have filled your tires to the
recommended cold pressure, but both should clear once you have driven a short distance.
• You may need to drive over 15 mph (25 km/h) for at least 10 minutes for the Tire Pressure Monitoring System to
measure and report your updated tire pressures.
If you repeatedly see this alert for the same tire, have the tire inspected for a slow leak. You can visit a local tire shop
or schedule service using your Tesla Mobile App.
For more information on tire pressure and inflation, see Tire Care and Maintenance on page 243.

Disclaimers
Event Data Recorder (EDR)
Model 3 is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR). The main purpose of an EDR is to record, in certain crash or
near crash-like situations, data such as an airbag deployment or hitting a road obstacle, to better understand how
the vehicle's systems performed. The EDR is designed to record data related to vehicle dynamics and safety systems
for a short period of time, typically 30 seconds or less. The EDR in Model 3 is designed to record data such as:
• How various systems in your vehicle were operating;
• Whether or not the driver and passenger safety belts were buckled/fastened;
• How far (if at all) the driver was pressing the accelerator and/or brake pedal; and,
• How fast the vehicle was traveling.
The data can help provide a better understanding of the circumstances in which crashes and injuries occur.
NOTE: EDR data is recorded by your vehicle only if a non-trivial crash situation occurs; no data is recorded by the
EDR under normal driving conditions and no personal data (for example, name, gender, age, and crash location) is
recorded. However, other parties, such as law enforcement, could combine the EDR data with person identifying
data they routinely acquire during a crash investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and access to the vehicle or the EDR is needed. In
addition to the vehicle manufacturer, other parties, such as law enforcement, that have this special equipment, can
read the information if they have access to the vehicle or the EDR. Tesla may also access the EDR remotely in some
crash circumstances.
Vehicle Telematics
Model 3 is equipped with electronic modules that monitor and record data from various vehicle systems, including
the motor, Autopilot components, Battery, braking and electrical systems. The electronic modules record information
about various driving and vehicle conditions, including braking, acceleration, trip and other related information
regarding your vehicle. These modules also record information about the vehicle’s features such as charging events
and status, the enabling/disabling of various systems, diagnostic trouble codes, VIN, speed, direction and location.
The data is stored by the vehicle and may be accessed, used and stored by Tesla service technicians during vehicle
servicing or periodically transmitted to Tesla wirelessly through the vehicle’s telematics system. This data may be
used by Tesla for various purposes, including, but not limited to: providing you with Tesla telematics services;
troubleshooting; evaluation of your vehicle’s quality, functionality and performance; analysis and research by Tesla
and its partners for the improvement and design of our vehicles and systems; to defend Tesla; and as otherwise may
be required by law. In servicing your vehicle, Tesla can potentially resolve issues remotely simply by reviewing your
vehicle’s data log.
Tesla’s telematics system wirelessly transmits vehicle information to Tesla on a periodic basis. The data is used as
previously described and helps ensure the proper maintenance of your vehicle. Additional Model 3 features may use
your vehicle’s telematics system and the information provided, including features such as charging reminders,
software updates, and remote access to, and control of, various systems of your vehicle.
Tesla does not disclose the data recorded in your vehicle to any third party except when:
• An agreement or consent from the vehicle’s owner (or the leasing company for a leased vehicle) is obtained.
• Officially requested by the police or other authorities.
• Used as a defense for Tesla.
• Ordered by a court of law.
• Used for research purposes without disclosing details of the vehicle owner or identification information.
• Disclosed to a Tesla affiliated company, including their successors or assigns, or our information systems and data
management providers.

Data Sharing
For quality assurance and to support the continuous improvement of advanced features such as Autopilot, your
Model 3 may collect analytics, road segment, diagnostic, and vehicle usage data and send to Tesla for analysis. This
analysis helps Tesla improve products and services by learning from the experience of billions of miles that Tesla
vehicles have driven. Although Tesla shares this data with partners that contribute similar data, the collected
information does not identify you personally and can be sent to Tesla only with your explicit consent. In order to
protect your privacy, personal information is either not logged at all, is subject to privacy preserving techniques, or is
removed from any reports before being sent to Tesla. You have control over what data you share by touching
Controls > Software > Data Sharing.
For additional information regarding how Tesla processes data collected from your vehicle, please review Tesla's
Privacy Notice at http://www.tesla.com/about/legal.
NOTE: Although Model 3 uses GPS in connection with driving and operation, as discussed in this document, Tesla
does not record or store vehicle-specific GPS information, except the location where a crash occurred. Consequently,
Tesla is unable to provide historical information about a vehicle's location (for example, Tesla is unable to tell you
where Model 3 was parked/traveling at a particular date/time).
Quality Control
You might notice a few miles/km on the odometer when you take delivery of your Model 3. This is a result of a
comprehensive testing process that ensures the quality of your Model 3.
The testing process includes extensive inspections during and after production. The final inspection takes place at
Tesla and includes a road test conducted by a technician.
