2016 TESLA MODEL S clock

Loading New Software
Model S updates its software wirelessly,
providing new features throughout your term of ownership. The
first time you enter Model S
after an update is made available, a scheduling
window displays on the touchscreen.
Note: Some software updates can take from
two to three hours to complete. Model S must be in P (Park) when the new software is being
installed. To ensure the fastest and most
reliable delivery of software updates, leave the
Wi-Fi turned on and connected whenever
possible (see Connecting to Wi-Fi on page
124).
When a software update is available, a yellow
clock icon appears on the touchscreen

3. If applicable, disconnect the bumpersensors.
If Model S is equipped with Autopilot
components (see About Driver Assistance
on page 65), you also need to disconnect
the cords for the ultrasonic sensors. To do
so, press down on the tab and pull to release.
4. Insert the towing eye.
Fully insert the towing eye into the
opening on the right side, then turn it
counter-clockwise until securely fastened.
5. Attach the winch cable to the towing eye.
Caution: Before pulling, make sure the
towing eye is securely tightened.Pull Onto the Trailer and Secure the
