to do so can cause serious injury.
CAUTION: Remove snow and ice before
opening the sunroof. Opening a sunroof
covered in snow and ice can cause
damage.
CAUTION: Do not carry objects in

4.4MODEL S OWNERS MANUAL
Using Right Steering Wheel Buttons

wheel to control the phone and some Model S
features, use voice commands, and customize

phone menu, which gives you the option to
mute, hold, or end the call.

option from a menu. When the option you

Touchscreen - Controls
USING THE TOUCHSCREEN5.5 1.Close
Touch the circled X in the top left of a
window to close it. You can also touch
anywhere outside the window to close it.
2.Sunroof
If Model S is equipped with a sunroof, touch
to adjust its position (see page 2.12).
3.Driving
•Suspension
If Model S is equipped with Active Air
Suspension, touch to manually raise or
lower Model S (see page 5.11). You must
press the brake pedal before you can
change suspension settings. Active Air
Suspension causes Model S to self-level,
even when powered off. Therefore, when
lifting or towing, you must disable
self-leveling (see pages 7.23 and 9.3).
•Steering mode
Adjust the amount of effort required to
turn the steering wheel. Sport feels more
responsive whereas Comfort feels easier
to drive and park (see page 4.3).
•Regenerative braking
When you release the accelerator when
driving, regenerative braking slows
Model S and feeds any surplus energy
b a c k t o t h e B a t t e r y. I f s e t t o L o w, M o d e l S
does not slow down as quickly, but you
may experience less range (see
page 4.21).
NOTE: Regardless of the setting, the
energy gained by regenerative braking is
reduced if the Battery is full, or if it is
extremely cold or hot (the surplus energy
is used to heat or cool the Battery).
•Tr a c t i o n C o n t r o l
If you turn off Traction Control, a warning
message displays on the instrument
panel. The off setting stays in effect for
the current drive only (see page 4.22).
•Creep
When on, Model S slowly moves forward
when in Drive and backward in Reverse
when you release the brake (similar to a
conventional vehicle with an automatic
transmission). You can only adjust this
setting when Model S is in Park.4.Cold Weather
If Model S is equipped with the cold
weather option, you can control all seat
heaters and the heated wipers. Note that
you can also control the front driver and
passenger seats using the main climate
control panel located on the bottom of the
touchscreen (see page 5.8).
5.Tr i p s
View and reset the trip meters that
summarize how far you have driven (see
page 4.18).
6.Displays
Manually control the touchscreen’s
brightness and control its day (light
background) or night (dark background)
setting. When set to Auto, the touchscreen
automatically changes between Day and
Night brightness depending on the ambient
lighting conditions.
7.E-Brake & Power Off
You can manually:
•Apply and release the parking brake
(page 4.20).
•Power off (see page 4.6).
•Keep Model S in Neutral by activating
Tow Mode (see page 9.3).
8.Doors & locks (see page 2.4)
9.Control lights (see page 4.11)
WARNING: Do not read the touchscreen
while driving. Doing so increases the
likelihood of a collision. Everything you need to
know when driving is displayed on the
instrument panel.
