Driver ProfilesDriver Profiles
4.2MODEL S OWNERS MANUAL
DRIVING
Driver ProfilesCreating a Driver Profile
If Model S is equipped with the optional tech
package, you only need to adjust Model S once.
When you first adjust the driver’s seat, steering
wheel, or driver’s side mirror, the touchscreen
prompts you to create a driver profile. Your
profile saves the position of the seat, steering
wheel, and driver’s side mirror, as well as several
other preferences you make using the
touchscreen’s Settings window (Controls >
Settings).
You can also add a driver profile by touching
Controls > Settings > Driver Profiles. Then
enter the name of the driver and touch Create
Profile.
If you change the position of the steering
wheel, driver’s seat, or driver’s side mirror after
you have saved a profile, the touchscreen
prompts you to save the new position or
restore the previously saved position (other
preferences are automatically saved). To use a
setting without saving or restoring, just ignore
the prompt.
Restoring a Driver’s Profile
To adjust Model S based on a driver’s
profile, touch the driver profile icon,
located to the left side of the Tesla “T”
on the touchscreen’s status bar. Then
choose the driver and the saved
adjustments are automatically made.
Saved Driver Settings
To see what settings are associated with your
driver profile, touch Controls > Settings >
Driver Profiles. Then touch the See what’s
saved link. A popup window displays the
settings that are associated with a driver
profile. These settings vary depending on the
version of software currently running in
Model S.

Mirrors
DRIVING4.5
MirrorsAdjusting Exterior Side Mirrors
Press the button associated with the mirror you
want to adjust (left or right), then press the dial
to move the mirror to the desired position.
Repeat for the other side mirror. Touch SAVE on
the touchscreen to save the mirror adjustment
in your driver profile.
To fold an exterior mirror, place your hand on
the back of it and push it toward the door.
If Model S is equipped with the optional tech
package, the driver’s side mirror automatically
dims in proportion to the level of glare from the
headlights of a vehicle behind you (except
when in Reverse gear). Also, both exterior side
mirrors have heaters that turn on and off with
the rear window heater.
Mirror Auto-tilt When Reversing
If Model S is equipped with the optional tech
package, both exterior mirrors can
automatically tilt downward when backing up.
To adjust the auto-tilt position, shift into
Reverse, then adjust the mirrors as described
above (press the button associated with the
mirror you want to adjust, then press the dial to
move the mirror to the desired position). Touch
SAVE on the touchscreen to save the mirror
adjustment in your driver profile.
When you shift back into Drive, the mirrors tilt
back to their normal (upward) position. But
now that you have adjusted them for backing
up, they automatically tilt to the selected
downward position whenever you shift into
Reverse.
You can turn the auto-tilt feature on or off using
the touchscreen, Touch Controls > Settings >
Mirror Auto-Tilt.
Rear View Mirror
Except when in Reverse gear, the rear view
mirror automatically dims in proportion to the
level of glare from the headlights of a vehicle
behind you.

Wipers and Washers
DRIVING4.15
Wipers and WashersWipers
To wipe the windshield, rotate the end of the
left-hand steering column lever away from you.
You can choose from four levels:
•1st: Auto with low rain sensitivity.*
•2nd: Auto with high rain sensitivity.*
•3rd: Continuous, slow.
•4th: Continuous, high.
For a single wipe, press and release the end of
the lever.
If the wipers are set to Auto and the sensor
detects no water, the wipers do not wipe.
When you operate the wipers, headlights
automatically turn on (if they are not on
already).
*Model S has a rain sensor located on the inside
of the windshield at the base of the interior
mirror. When wipers are set to Auto, the
frequency at which they wipe depends on how
much water the sensor detects. When wipers
are set to the 2nd level, the sensor is more
sensitive.
To extend the life of wiper blades, remove ice
from the windshield before turning wipers on.
Ice has sharp edges that can damage the
rubber on the blades.
Periodically check and clean the edge of the
wiper blade. If damaged, replace the blade
immediately. For details on checking replacing
wiper blades, see page 7.15.
CAUTION: In harsh climates, ensure that
the wiper blades are not frozen or
adhered to the windshield.
De-icing Wipers
If Model S is equipped with the cold weather
option, you can de-ice wipers by touching
Controls > Cold Weather > Heated Wipers.
This control heats the wipers for 15 minutes and
then automatically turns off.
Washers
Press and hold the button on the end of the
left-hand steering column lever to spray washer
fluid onto the windshield. The wipers turn on.
When you release, the wipers turn off after
wiping the windshield a couple more times.
Periodically top up washer fluid (see page 7.18).
De-icing Washer Nozzles
If Model S is equipped with the cold weather
option, washer nozzles have de-icers that turn
on whenever the ambient temperature nears
freezing, or when you turn on the heated wipers
(Controls > Cold Weather > Heated Wipers).
The washer de-icers turn off when the heated
wipers turn off (after 15 minutes), provided the
temperature is warm enough to prevent
freezing.

Climate ControlsClimate Controls
5.8MODEL S OWNERS MANUAL
Climate ControlsOverview of Climate Controls
The climate controls are always available at the bottom of the touchscreen. By default, climate
control is set to Auto On, which maintains optimum comfort in all but the most severe weather
conditions. When you adjust the temperature, the system automatically adjusts the heating, air
conditioning, air distribution, air circulation, and fan speed to maintain your selected temperature.
To override these settings, touch Auto On (see page 5.9).
The fan, heating, and air conditioning systems are powered by the Battery. Therefore, prolonged use
decreases driving range.
NOTE: The following illustration is provided for demonstration purposes only. Depending on vehicle
options, software version, and settings, the information displayed may be slightly different.
1.The front seats are equipped with heating
pads that operate at three levels from 3
(highest) to 1 (lowest).
When operating, the indicator turns red and
displays the setting number.
NOTE: If Model S is equipped with the cold
weather option, the three rear seats also
have seat heaters and all seat heaters can
be controlled by touching Controls > Cold
We a t h e r.
NOTE: Seat heaters use less Battery energy
than the climate control system.
2.Touch the up or down arrow to set the cabin
temperature (from LO, 17° C to HI, 32° C). To
apply a temperature setting to both the
driver and passenger side at the same time,
touch SYNC TEMP on the temperature
popup that appears when you touch an
arrow.
NOTE: You can display temperature in
either
oF or oC (Controls > Settings >
Language & Units).
3.Automatic/Manual climate control (see
page 5.9).4.The windshield defroster distributes air flow
to the windshield and operates the heating
and fan at their maximum level. Touch once
for Normal Defrost (icon turns blue). Touch
twice for Max Defrost (icon turns red).
When on, touch again to turn off and
restore the air distribution, heating, and fan
to their previous settings.
5.Turn climate control system on/off.
6.The rear window defroster warms up the
rear window* for 15 minutes, then
automatically shuts off.
*If Model S is equipped with the optional
tech package, exterior side mirrors are also
heated.
WARNING: To avoid burns resulting from
prolonged use, individuals who have
peripheral neuropathy, or whose capacity to
feel pain is limited because of diabetes, age,
neurological injury, or some other condition,
should exercise caution when using the climate
control system and seat heaters.
