Lights
Controlling Lights Touch Controls > Lights on the touchscreen to
control the lights.
In addition to the lights that you can control
from the touchscreen, Model S has
convenience lights that turn on and off
automatically based on what you are doing. For example, you will notice interior lights,marker lights, tail lights, door handle lights,
and puddle lights that turn on when you unlock Model S, when you open a door, and
when you shift into Park. They turn off
automatically after a minute or two or when
you shift into a driving gear or lock Model S.
Note: The image below is provided for
demonstration purposes only. Depending on vehicle options, software version and market
region, your touchscreen may appear slightly
different.
1. Exterior lights (headlights, tail lights, side
marker lights, parking lights, and license
plate lights) are set to AUTO each time
you start Model S. When set to AUTO,
exterior lights automatically turn on when
driving in low lighting conditions. If you
change to a different setting, lights always
revert to AUTO on your next drive.
Touch one of these options to temporarily
change the exterior light setting:

4.If you turn on AMBIENT LIGHTS, interior
ambient lights turn on whenever the
headlights are on.
5. If you turn on Auto High Beam (only
available on Model S equipped with Autopilot components), your vehicle
automatically switches from high beam
headlights to low beam headlights when
there is light detected in front of Model S.
See High Beam Headlights on page 57.
6. If you turn on Headlights after Exit, the
exterior lights remain on for a short period
of time after you stop driving and park Model S in low lighting conditions. See Headlights After Exit on page 57.
Note: Model S has lights along the rim of the
headlights, also referred to as "signature" lights. These lights automatically turn on
whenever Model S is powered on and a driving gear is engaged.
