Tesla Model 3: Loading New Software
Tesla updates your vehicle's software
wirelessly, constantly providing new features.
Tesla recommends you install software
updates as soon as they are available on your
vehicle. To ensure the fastest and most reliable
delivery of software updates, leave Wi-Fi
turned on and connected whenever possible.
In most cases, your vehicle must be connected
to Wi-Fi to start an update
Note: On an as-needed basis, Tesla also sends
software updates using a cellular connection.
Note: Software updates are not performed
when Keep Climate On, Dog Mode, or Camp
Mode is active.
Warning: Do not attempt to use the
vehicle while the software is being
updated. Vehicle functions, including
some safety systems, may be limited or
disabled when a software update is in
progress and you could damage the
vehicle.
When a software update is available, a yellow
clock icon appears at the top of the
touchscreen. There are three ways you can
install software updates:
- Touch the yellow clock icon to display the
scheduling window, which prompts you to
select a time to install the update (SET
FOR THIS TIME) or install it now (INSTALL
NOW). Once scheduled, the yellow clock
icon changes to a white clock icon until
the update begins. At any time before the
update begins, you can touch this clock
icon to reschedule the update.
- Go to Controls > Software to determine if
an update is available for your vehicle. If
available, touch Software Update Available
to navigate to the scheduling window, as
mentioned above.
- Start updates using the Tesla mobile app.
Note: Some software updates can take up to
three hours to complete. Model 3 must be in
Park while the software is being updated. To
ensure the fastest and most reliable delivery of
software updates, leave the Wi-Fi turned on
and connected whenever possible
The yellow clock icon becomes a green
download icon when a software update is
downloading. If a yellow download icon
displays, a software update is available but
your vehicle is not connected to Wi-Fi.
Connect your vehicle to Wi-Fi to start the
download.
