Warning icon? Too cold?

[captainfrisket]

When I start driving in the cold, I usually get the yellow and black restriction indicator to show that limited regen is available. Sometimes I also get a little warning triangle (see image). I can get one, or the other, or both - so they seem to be independent. There is no explanation or error on the dash or center display. Is this also related to a cold battery pack - or some other issue?

Energy graph warning symbol?

I got this for the first time ever. Was quite scary how little brakes it felt like it had...

Captainfrisket, I saw the same thing for first time after the 50.2 software update when I started to drive in the morning with the car charged at 90%. Overnight temperatures were in the low 50's. It is puzzling. The warning sign seems to go away after driving a while but the color of the meter indicator (curve bar) now tends to be more orange vs green even after driving for 20 minutes. I assume it's a software glitch, but it would be great to know for sure. Car seems to drive fine.

welcome to "cold" weather... that's the least severe regen limit. You're probably in the 40F range. Nothing to worry about. You don't even have any dotted lines limiting regen at that temperature.

That graph seems confusing. Are you saying that braking is less when this occurs? Asking so I will know if it happens to me.
