How to Operate Tesla Model 3 / Y Mini Screen Display ?

by JULIET YU on Mar 14, 2023

As a Tesla Model 3/Model Y owner, you've probably noticed the inconvenience of having to take your eyes off the road to view your speed and other important driving information on the center display. Installing the Tesla Mini screen display also solves the problem of inconvenient dashboard placement in the Tesla Model 3/Y. The dashboard is placed in the center of the car, which means you have to take your eyes off the road to view it. By projecting dashboard information directly onto the windshield in front of the driver, the Tesla Mini HUD projects all the necessary information on a compact 4.6-inch display right in front of your eyes, ensuring that you keep your eyes on the road at all times.

Impressive Features

Industry engineers refer to the flat-screen display as the window to the soul of the car. It is the most important window into human-vehicle interaction, a device that projects essential driving information onto the windshield or a dedicated screen. This display makes driving safer and reduces driving risk by reducing the need to frequently turn your eyes and head to view the main display. Once installed, your eyes will always be looking straight ahead and you will not have to turn your head to your display to see your speed and other information on the main display.

Driving Experience - Improve safety and convenience while driving

With the Tesla Mini HUD, you can easily view your speed, navigation directions and other essential information, plus display vehicle health and warning information with all the important information at eye level - a convenience that makes driving on the road feel safer and more confident. This feature not only adds convenience and allows drivers to see the condition of their vehicle at a glance, but it also improves driving safety.

Perfect size - won't block your view or vents

The Tesla Model 3 Model Y flat-screen display is designed with an ultra-mini screen that's just the right size at 4.6 inches and won't block any air conditioning. The mini screen is mounted parallel to the air vents when the steering wheel is adjusted to its highest position, and at other angles below the vents.
