Note: SiriusXM radio is available only if ModelS is equipped with the optional sound
package and the panoramic roof. To optimize
aerodynamics, Model S does not have an
external antenna. The internal antenna is
compatible only with the panoramic roof.
Internet Radio
Internet radio services are accessed over a
data connection. To use Internet radio, touch Media Player

During Navigation
During navigation, the touchscreen displays a
turn-by-turn direction list that includes estimated mileage, driving time, arrival time,
and an estimate of how much energy is
remaining when you reach the destination.
Note: If Model S requires charging to reach the
destination and Trip Planner is turned on (see Trip Planner on page 118), the navigation
route includes Supercharger stops.
The touchscreen also displays your location on
the map. Depending on the map

Note: For security reasons, if you sell Model S,
erase your Home and Work locations, and
your favorite destinations (see Erasing
Personal Data on page 101).
Updated Maps To receive updated maps, periodically connectModel S to a Wi-Fi network (see Connecting
to Wi-Fi on page 125). As updated maps
become available, they are sent to Model S
over Wi-Fi only. The touchscreen displays a
message informing you when new maps have
been installed.

Wi-Fi is available as a data connection methodand 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 delivery of Model S
updates (see Software Updates on page 126),
Tesla recommends leaving Wi-Fi turned on and connected to a Wi-Fi network. To connectto a Wi-Fi network:
1. Touch the 4G (or LTE) 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

Loading New Software
Model S updates its software wirelessly,
providing new features throughout your term of ownership. Tesla recommends that you
install software update as soon as they are
available. The
first time you enter Model S
after an update is made available, a scheduling
window displays on the touchscreen. The
scheduling window displays again at the end
of your
first driving session.
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
125).
When a software update is available, a yellow
clock icon appears on the touchscreen

During ChargingDuring charging, the charge port pulses green and charging status displays on the instrument
panel. The frequency at which the charge port

Changing Charge SettingsThe charge settings screen displays on the touchscreen whenever the charge port door is open.
To display charge settings at any time, touch the Battery icon on the top of the touchscreen, or touch Controls > Charging (located in the upper right portion of the Controls screen).
Note: 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. Charge status messages (such as Charging Scheduled, Charging In Progress) display here.
2. To adjust the charge limit, touch Set Charge Limit, then touch the arrows to move the charge limit setting in 10% increments for daily driving, and 2% increments for trips. The setting youchoose applies to both immediate and scheduled charging sessions.
3.
Location-specific schedule. With Model S in Park, set a specific time when you want Model S
to begin charging at the current location. If, at the scheduled time, Model S is not plugged in
at the location, it will start charging as soon as you plug it in as long as you are plugging it in
within six hours of the scheduled time. If you plug in after six hours, Model S does not start charging until the scheduled time on the next day. To override this setting, touch Start
Charging or Stop Charging (see item 4). When you set a scheduled charging time, Model S displays the set time on the instrument panel and the touchscreen.
4. Touch to open the charge port door or to start (or stop) charging.
5. The current automatically sets to the maximum current available from the attached charge cable, unless it was previously reduced to a lower level.
If needed, touch the up/down arrows to change the current (for example, you may want to
reduce the current if you are concerned about overloading a domestic wiring circuit shared by other equipment). It is not possible to set the charging current to a level that exceeds themaximum available from the attached charge cable.
When you change the current, Model S remembers the location. So if you subsequently charge at the same location, you do not need to change it again.
Note: If Model S automatically reduced a charging location

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.
