NOTE: Hazard warning flashers operate even without a key nearby.
When parking in low light, exterior lights temporarily remain on. They turn off after one minute or when you lock Cybertruck, whichever comes first. Enable/disable via Controls > Lights > Headlights After Exit. When off, headlights turn off immediately when you engage Park and open a door.
Condensation may accumulate due to weather, humidity, or water exposure. This is normal and usually disappears as weather warms. If condensation affects visibility, schedule a service appointment via the mobile app.

Slows vehicle when foot off accelerator and feeds power back to battery. Deceleration varies with battery state. Option to apply regular brakes automatically when regenerative braking is limited: Controls > Dynamics > Apply Brakes When Regenerative Braking is Limited.
Power meter displays power usage and regenerative power. Winter tires may temporarily reduce regenerative braking.
