3. Rear trunk - Double-click to open the rear trunk. Hold down for one to two seconds to open the
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
49). If you wait longer than two minutes, you must
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
minute authentication period restarts.
When approaching or leaving Model Y carrying the key
fob, you do not need to point the key fob at
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
(30 cm) away from other electronic devices (phone,
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
