connection is not available. When you specify
a location, the touchscreen displays the route and provides turn-by-turn instructions. IfModel S is not equipped with the navigationoption, onboard maps are not available, but ifyou have a data connection, you can find and
display any location.

of recent locations and searches, favorite
destinations, charging locations, and charging
stations you've visited. To mark a destination
as a Favorite , select its “pin” (from search
results or “Recents”), and then touch the heart

map:North Up - North is always at the
top of the screen.Heading Up - The direction you are
heading is always at the top of the

You can rotate the map in any direction.
When you rotate the map you’ll notice the
icon turn gray, indicating the map is no longer
tracking your position. Touch the icon again to track your position.
Whenever the map is in the
Heading Up orientation (where
North is not at the top), a compass

the compass points North and the
text on the compass indicates the
direction you are driving. You can

OverviewNote: Calendar is a BETA feature in Release 6.0.
The Calendar app allows you to view your phone’s (iPhone or Android) calendar for the current and next day. The Calendar app requires that:
• The Tesla Model S mobile app is running and you are logged in. When prompted on your phone, you must grant calendar access to the mobile app. The mobile app can then
periodically (and automatically) send calendar data from your phone to Model S. Also,
whenever you display the mobile app on your phone, updated calendar data is sent to
Model S.
• Your phone is connected to Model S via Bluetooth (for privacy reasons, calendar data displays only from a phone that is connected via Bluetooth).
• Remote access to Model S is turned on (touch Controls > Settings > Safety & Security >
Remote Access > On ).
• Both your phone and Model S have good connectivity.
When you enter Model S, the touchscreen can display a reminder of the day's events. You can
customize if and when your calendar events are displayed by touching Controls > Settings >
Apps > Calendar > Show Calendar Upon Entry .
To view scheduled events for the next 48 hours, choose the Calendar app from the main
touchscreen window. The Calendar app displays events in chronological order.
1. If the calendar event includes an address, a navigation arrow displays to indicate that you can
touch the address to navigate to the event's location (if your Model S is equipped with the
Navigation option).
2. If the calendar event includes a phone number, you can touch the number to initiate a phone
call.
3. In situations where events are displayed from multiple calendars, you can filter to show only
events from one or more specific calendars.
4. If the calendar event has notes associated with it, touch the information icon to display the
notes in a pop up window.

Using the Touchscreen93

5.If an event's notes include one or more phone numbers, a phone symbol displays with the
information icon and the first phone number found in the notes is shown on the event list and
you can use this number to initiate a phone call (as described in item 2 above). But you can
also initiate a call from within the notes pop up window by referencing other numbers that
are included in the notes (this is particularly useful for conference calls). If the notes contain a
web link, you can touch the link to open it in the Web Browser app.
Calendar and Navigation
If Model S is equipped with the navigation feature, and a calendar event has a location specified, you will be given the option to navigate to that location. Also, when an event on your Calendar
takes place within the next hour and has a uniquely specified location, the Model S navigation
system notifies you if there is a better route due to traffic, even if you’re not using navigation.

Wi-Fi is available as a data connectionmethod and is often faster than cellular data
networks. Connecting to Wi-Fi is especially
useful in areas with limited or no cellular connectivity. To ensure fast, reliable deliveryof Model S updates (see Software Updates on
page 99), Tesla recommends leaving Wi-Fi
turned on and connected to a Wi-Fi network.
To connect to a Wi-Fi network:
1. Touch the 3G icon in the touchscreen
status bar. Model S will start scanning and
display the Wi-Fi networks that are within range.
2. Select the Wi-Fi network you want to use,
enter the password (if necessary), then
touch Connect .
You can also connect to a hidden network
that isn't shown on the list of scanned
networks. Just touch Wi-Fi Settings and enter
the name of the network in the resulting
dialog box.
Once you have connected to a network,
Model S auto-connects whenever the network
is within range. If more than one previously connected network is within range, Model S
connects to the one most recently used.
Note: You can also use a mobile hotspot or
your phone's Internet connection via Wi-Fi tethering.
Note: At Tesla service centers, Model S
automatically connects to a Tesla Service Wi-
Fi access point.
