2.2MODEL S OWNERS MANUAL
OPENING AND CLOSING
DoorsKeyless Locking and Unlocking
Model S has sensors that can recognize the
presence of a key. The sensors are located at
each end of the dash panel and behind the rear
bumper, and have a range of approximately
three feet (one meter).
If Model S is equipped with the optional tech
package, walking up to Model S when you have
your key with you automatically unlocks the
doors. Similarly, open the trunk by just walking
u p to M o de l S w it h yo ur key w i t h yo u an d p re ss
the switch located under the trunk’s exterior
handle.
Press a door handle, and it extends. Or, if the
AUTO-PRESENT HANDLES setting is turned on
(see page 2.4), door handles extend
automatically when Model S unlocks.
If you turn on the walk-away locking setting
using the touchscreen, Model S locks when you
walk away carrying your key with you (see
page 2.5).
Using the Key
To quickly familiarize yourself with the key,
think of the key as a miniature version of
Model S, with the Tesla badge representing the
front. The key has three buttons that feel like
softer areas on the surface.
1.Tr u n k
•Double-click to open the rear trunk.
•If Model S is equipped with a powered
liftgate, double-click to close the rear
trunk. You can also single-click to stop
the liftgate when it is moving.
2.Lock/Unlock All
•Double-click to unlock doors and the rear
trunk. Hazard warning lights flash twice
and door handles extend.
•Single-click to lock doors and trunks (all
d o o r s a n d t r u n k s m u s t b e c l o s e d ) . H a z a r d
warning lights flash once and door
handles retract.
•Press and hold to lower all windows.
3. Front trunk (also called the “frunk”)
•Double-click to open the front trunk.
You do not need to point the key at Model S,
but you must be within operating range (which
varies depending on the strength of the key’s
battery). If Model S is unable to detect the key,
the touchscreen displays a message indicating
that a key is not inside. Place the key where
Model S can best detect it, which is below the
12V power socket (see page 4.6).
Radio equipment on a similar frequency can
affect the key. If this happens, move the key at
least 30 cm away from other electronic devices
(phone, laptop, etc).

2.4MODEL S OWNERS MANUAL
Using Exterior Door Handles
A light press on a door handle extends it,
provided Model S detects a valid key nearby.
If Model S is equipped with the optional tech
package, you can set the door handles to
extend automatically whenever you approach
the driver’s side carrying the key. On the
touchscreen, touch Controls > Settings >
Auto-Present Handles > On.
Insert your hand into the handle and pull to
open the door.
Door handles retract if you do not use them
within one minute after they extend. Just press
a handle to extend it again. Door handles also
retract a minute after the last door closes, when
Model S begins moving, and when you lock
Model S.
NOTE: To preserve battery life, Model is
designed to temporarily disable the
Auto-Present Handles feature when:
•The key has been out of range for more
than 24 hours.
•The key remains within range for five
minutes after all doors have been closed.
In these cases, extend the handles by touching
the driver’s door handle or pressing the unlock
button on the key. There is no need to reset the
setting. The next time you approach Model S,
provided the above conditions do not apply,
handles automatically extend.
Whenever a door is open, the Door
Open indicator displays on the
instrument panel. The image of the
Model S on the touchscreen Controls window
also shows which door or trunk is open.
Using Interior Door Handles
Pull the interior door handle toward you to
open the door.
NOTE: To prevent children from opening rear
doors using the interior handles, use the
touchscreen (Controls > Settings > Child
Protection Locks) to turn on the
child-protection locks (see page 2.5).
Interior Locking and Unlocking
From inside Model S, you can use the
touchscreen to lock or unlock doors and trunks,
provided a valid key is inside the vehicle. Touch
Controls > Lock/Unlock. The current lock
status displays on the bottom left of the
instrument panel.
NOTE: If a door or trunk is still open when you
lock Model S, it locks when you close it.

OPENING AND CLOSING2.7
Wi ndow sOpening from the Exterior
To open windows from outside Model S, press
and hold the unlock button on the key.
Opening and Closing from the
Interior
Press down on a switch to lower the associated
window all the way down. Window switches
operate at two levels. To lower a window
partially, hold the switch and release when the
window is at the desired position.
Similarly, pull a switch to raise the associated
window. This also operates at two levels—when
raising, hold the switch and release when the
window is at the desired position.
WARNING: Before closing a power
window, it is the driver’s responsibility to
ensure that all occupants, especially children,
do not have any body parts extended through
the window’s opening. Failure to do so can
cause serious injury.
WARNING: When leaving Model S, always
take your key with you. Leaving the key in
Model S allows all doors, windows, and controls to be fully operational and can cause
hazardous, unauthorized or unintentional use
of Model S.
Locking Rear Windows
To prevent passengers from using the rear
window switches, press the rear window lock
switch. The switch light turns on. To unlock rear
windows, press the switch again.
WARNING: To ensure safety, it is
recommended that you lock the rear
windows whenever children are seated in the
rear seats.
WARNING: Never leave children
unattended in Model S.

Rear TrunkOpening
To open the rear trunk, do one of the following:
•To u c h Controls > Trunk on the touchscreen.
•Double-click the Trunk button on the key.
•Press the switch located under the exterior
handle (if not equipped with the optional
tech package, you must first unlock
Model S).
When the liftgate is open, the
instrument panel displays the Door
Open indicator light. The image of the
Model S on the touchscreen Controls window
also displays the open trunk.
To stop a powered liftgate while it is moving,
single-click the Trunk button on the key. Then,
when you double-click the Trunk button, it
moves again, but in the opposite direction
(provided it was not almost entirely open or
closed when you stopped it). For example, if
you single-click to stop the liftgate while it is
opening, when you double-click, it closes.
To open the trunk in the unlikely situation in
which Model S has no electrical power, see
page 2.9.
Closing
To close the trunk, pull down on the liftgate and
push firmly, ensuring it is fully closed.
If Model S is equipped with the optional tech
package, you can close the powered liftgate by:
•Double-clicking the trunk button on the key.
•Touching Controls > Trunk on the
touchscreen.
•Pressing the switch located on the
underside of the liftgate (see page 2.8).
If a powered liftgate senses an obstruction
when closing, it automatically opens and
sounds two chimes. Remove the obstruction
and try closing it again. If it cannot close the
second time, powered operation is temporarily
disabled. Manually closing it restores powered
operation.
NOTE: The power closing feature is also
temporarily disabled if you leave the powered
liftgate open for more than an hour.
Adjusting the Opening Height
If Model S is equipped with a powered liftgate,
you can adjust its opening height to make it
easier to reach:
1.Open the liftgate, then lower it to the
desired opening height.
2.Press and hold the button on the underside
of the liftgate for 2 seconds until you hear a
confirmation beep.
3.Confirm that you have set it to the desired
height by closing the liftgate, then
reopening it.
