Bluetooth

Connecting to a Paired Phone
Model S automatically connects with the last
phone to which it was connected, provided it
is within operating range and has Bluetooth turned on. If the last phone is not within range,
it attempts to connect with the next phone
that it has been paired with.
To connect to a
different phone, touch the
Bluetooth icon on the touchscreen

Charging Status
The following illustration is provided for demonstration purposes only and may vary slightly
depending on the software version and market region of your Model S.
1. Charging status information. For example, if Model S is charging, it displays the time remaining until fully charged at the currently selected charge level. When a charging session
has been scheduled, it displays when charging starts.
2. Total estimated driving distance (or energy) available. Instead of driving distance as shown here, you can display the percentage of battery energy remaining by touching Controls >
Settings > Units & Format > Energy & Charging.
Note: A portion of the battery image may appear blue. This indicates that a small portion of
the energy stored in the battery is not available because the battery is cold. This is normal and
no reason for concern. When the battery warms up, the blue portion no longer displays.
3. Charging rate per hour.
4. Estimated increase in driving distance (or energy) achieved so far in this charging session. Instead of driving distance as illustrated above, you can display the amount of energy gained
by touching Controls > Settings > Units & Format > Energy & Charging.
5. Current being supplied/current available from the connected power supply (see Changing
Charge Settings on page 135).
6. Voltage being supplied by the charge cable.
Note: If Model S is charging and detects unexpected
