Improving Tire Mileage
To improve the mileage you get from your
tires, maintain tires at the recommended tire pressures, observe speed limits and advisory
speeds, and avoid:
• Pulling away quickly, or hard acceleration.
• Fast turns and heavy braking.
• Potholes and objects in the road.
• Hitting curbs when parking.
• Contaminating tires with fluids that can cause damage.
Replacing Tires and Wheels
Tires degrade over time due to the effects of
ultraviolet light, extreme temperatures, high loads, and environmental conditions. It is
recommended that tires are replaced every
six years, or sooner if required.
Wheel rims and tires are matched to suit the
handling characteristics of the vehicle.
Replacement tires must comply with the
original specification. If tires other than those
specified are used, ensure that the load and
speed ratings marked on the tire equal or
exceed those of the original specification.
Ideally, you should replace all four tires at the
same time. If this is not possible, replace the
tires in pairs (both front or both rear). When
replacing tires, always re-balance and check
the alignment of wheels.
If you replace a wheel, the TPMS (Tire
Pressure Monitoring System) sensors need to
be reset to ensure they provide accurate
warnings when tires are under- or over-
inflated (see Resetting the TPMS Sensors on
page 26).Warning: For your safety, use only tires
and wheels that match the original
specification. Tires that do not match the
original specification can affect the
operation of the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS).Asymmetric Tires
Model S tires are asymmetric and must be
mounted on the wheel with the correct sidewall facing outward. The sidewall of thetire is marked with the word OUTSIDE. When
new tires are installed, make sure that the tires
are correctly mounted on the wheels.Warning: Road holding is seriously
impaired if the tires are incorrectly
installed on the wheels.
Winter Tires
In snowy and icy conditions, consider installing winter tires. Winter tires must be the
same size, brand, construction and tread
pattern on all four wheels. For
recommendations on winter tires, contact Tesla.
Warning: On dry roads, winter tires could
have less traction than the originally
installed tires.

Modifications and Waivers
No person or entity, including, but not limited to, a Tesla employee or authorized representative,
can modify or waive any part of this New Vehicle Limited Warranty. Tesla may occasionally offer
to pay a portion or all of the cost of certain repairs that are no longer covered by this New Vehicle Limited Warranty for specific vehicle models, which some countries (where relevant in
accordance with your local law) may refer to as “adjustment programs” or similar programs. In
such circumstances, Tesla will notify all known registered owners of affected vehicles. You may
also inquire to Tesla directly regarding the applicability of such programs, if any, to your vehicle.
Tesla may also occasionally offer to pay a portion or all of the cost of certain vehicle repairs that are no longer covered by this New Vehicle Limited Warranty on an ad hoc case-by-case basis.
Tesla reserves the right, to the extent permissible under your local law, to do the above and to make changes to vehicles manufactured or sold by Tesla and the applicable warranties, at anytime, without incurring any obligation to make the same or similar payment or changes for
vehicles Tesla previously manufactured or sold, or applicable warranties including this New

with English law and you and Tesla submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of
England and Wales, although the laws of your country or jurisdiction may apply to any tort claims and any claims under any consumer protection statutes, as provided under your local law. In the
event that any provision of this New Vehicle Limited Warranty is held by a court of competent
jurisdiction to be unenforceable because it is invalid or in conflict with any law of any relevant
jurisdiction, the validity of the remaining provisions shall not be affected, and the rights and obligations of the parties shall be construed and enforced as if this New Vehicle Limited Warranty
did not contain the particular provisions held to be unenforceable, and the unenforceable
provisions shall be replaced by provisions which, being valid, legal and enforceable, come closest
to Tesla’s intention underlying the invalid or unenforceable provision.
Your new vehicle and its safety items comply with your local motor vehicle laws. For all owners of
the vehicle, to the fullest extent allowed by your local law, Tesla requires that you first provide
