Is it necessary to enable Tesla's Overheat Protection?
1 Answers
It is recommended to enable it. Below is relevant information about the Cabin Overheat Protection system: 1. Introduction: Tesla's "Cabin Overheat Protection System" introduced in the 8.0 update utilizes the powerful battery as an energy source. When sensors detect excessively high temperatures inside the vehicle, the system automatically activates, using the onboard air conditioning to maintain a comfortable temperature level. 2. Child protection: When a child is accidentally left in the car, this system prevents life-threatening heat exposure. However, considering energy efficiency, Tesla vehicles will deactivate this function after 12 hours of inactivity - in such an enclosed environment for extended periods, even with air conditioning, a child's chances of survival would be extremely low.
