detailed information about the dampers for
each wheel, including ride height,
compression and rebound values, and body accelerations.
Auto-Raising Suspension
Auto-raising suspension saves you from
manually having to raise the suspension every
time you arrive at a frequently-used location
where you have previously raised the
suspension. Whenever you raise the suspension to
High or Very High, you can
touch Always Auto-Raise at This Location to
save the location. When you return to the
saved location,
Model S raises the suspension
and the instrument panel displays a message
indicating that the suspension is being raised.
NOTE: When returning to a saved location
and driving faster than the High and Very High suspension settings allow, the
suspension does not raise until
Model S slows
down.
NOTE: After leaving a saved location, the
suspension automatically lowers. However, it
may not lower until you are driving faster than the speed threshold at which the suspension lowers.
NOTE: If Model S reaches a saved location
and the existing suspension setting is already
higher than the level that has been saved for
that location, the ride height is not adjusted.
To remove an auto-raising location
If you do not want the suspension to auto- raise at a saved location, touch the X in the
auto-raising location status message that
displays at a saved location. Doing so
removes the auto-raise location and the suspension no longer raises automatically
when you arrive at the location.
Self-Leveling
Model S equipped with air suspension
automatically self-levels, even when power is
off. To prevent damage when jacking or lifting
the vehicle, you must activate Jack mode to
disable self-leveling (press the brake pedal
and touch
Controls > Service > Jack Mode).
For more details, see Jack Mode on page 201.
