Steering Wheel
DRIVING4.3
Steering WheelAdjusting Position
Adjust the steering wheel to the desired driving
position by moving the control on the left side
of the steering column.
WARNING: Do not make adjustments
while driving. Doing so increases the
likelihood of a collision.
Adjusting Sensitivity
You can adjust the feel and sensitivity of the
steering system to suit your personal
preference:
1.On the touchscreen, touch Controls.
2.Choose a steering option:
•Comfort - reduces the effort required to
turn the wheel. In town, Model S feels
easier to drive and park.
•Standard - Tesla believes that this setting
offers the best handling and response in
all conditions.
•Sport - Increases the effort required to
turn the wheel. When driving at higher
speeds, Model S feels more responsive.
The only way to really know which option you
like best is to try them.
Using Left Steering Wheel Buttons
Use the buttons on the left side of the steering
wheel to change radio stations, control the
media player’s volume, and control what
displays on the left side of the instrument panel
whenever the Navigation app is not displaying
instructions.
NOTE: The volume control on the steering
wheel does not adjust spoken navigation
instructions. To control the volume of
navigation instructions, use the navigation
window on the touchscreen (see page 5.19).
1. Next
If you are listening to local radio and you
have defined more than one radio preset,
(see page 5.12) press to play the next preset
in the radio band that is currently playing. If
you have not defined more than one preset,
press to go to the next available frequency.
If you are listening to Internet radio, or to an
audio file on a connected Bluetooth or USB
device, press to skip to the next song or
station.
2. Scroll Wheel
•To adjust the media volume, roll up or
down.
•To mute the media volume, or to
pause/play an audio file, tap the wheel.
•To choose what displays on the left side
of the instrument panel, press the scroll
wheel to display the available options.
Then roll the scroll wheel to browse
through the options. Tap the scroll wheel
when the option you want is selected.
3. Previous
Same as described above for Next, except it
skips to the previous song or station.
NOTE: Regardless of how you customize the
left side of the instrument panel, it
automatically changes to display navigation
instructions (if applicable), or to let you know if
a door or trunk is open when Model S is in a
driving gear.
