its card readers, located on the driver

charge port door.
Once inside, power up Model Y by pressing the brake
pedal within two minutes of pressing the unlock button
on the key fob (see
Starting and Powering Off on page

press the unlock button again, or place the key fob near
the card reader located behind the cup holders on the center console. When your key fob is detected, the two

Model Y as
you press a button, but you must be within operating range.
Radio equipment on a similar frequency can affect the
key. If this happens, move the key at least
one foot

laptop, etc.).
If the key fob does not work (for example, its battery is dead), you can touch its
flat side against the card
reader on the driver
