WARNING: Do not use LATCH anchors with child safety seats or booster seats that have an integral safety belt where the combined weight of the child plus the child safety seat exceeds 65 lbs (29.5 kg).
WARNING: Laws that govern how and where children should be carried when traveling in a vehicle are subject to change. It is the driver

Testing a Child Safety Seat
Before seating a child, always make sure the child safety seat is not loose:
1.
Hold the child safety seat by the belt path
and try to slide the safety seat from side
to side and front to back.
2.
If the seat moves more than one inch (2.5 cm), it is too loose. Tighten the belt
or reconnect the LATCH retained child
safety seat.
3.
If you are unable to reduce slack, try a different seat location or try another child
safety seat.
Child Safety Seat Warnings
WARNING: Extreme hazard! Do not seat a child on the front passenger seat even if you are using a child safety seat. This seat has an airbag in front of it. Although this airbag is disabled when Model S detects a lightweight passenger, do not rely on technology to protect your child.
WARNING: Child restraint systems are designed to be secured in vehicle seats by lap belts or the lap belt portion of a lap-shoulder belt. Children could be endangered in a crash if their child restraints are not properly secured in the vehicle.
WARNING: According to collision statistics, children are safer when properly restrained in the rear seating positions than in the front seating positions.
WARNING: Do not use a forward facing child safety seat until your child weighs over 20 lbs (9 kg) and can sit independently. Up to the age of two, a child

Controlling the Passenger Front Airbag
Model S has an occupancy sensor in the front passenger seat that controls the status of the
front airbag.
NOTE: The occupancy classification system (OCS) meets the regulatory requirement of
FMVSS 208 and automatically detects when inflating the passenger front airbag would be
unnecessary or potentially harmful.
WARNING: Seating an infant in a rear facing child safety seat on a seat equipped with an operational airbag can cause serious injury or death.Object ClassificationOCS Passenger

NOTE: It takes approximately six seconds after you power on Model S for the occupant classification system (OCS) to report accurate status of the front passenger airbag. As a result,
when you first power on Model S, even in situations when it should be OFF because the seat is
occupied by a weight of 20 lbs (9 kg) or less, a delay of approximately six seconds can occur
before the touchscreen displays the PASS AIRBAG OFF status. If it fails to do so, contact Tesla
Service and do not seat a child in the front passenger seating position.
To make sure the sensing system can correctly detect occupancy status, eliminate the following:

Load Capacity Labeling
It is important to understand how much
weight your Model S can safely carry. This
weight is called the vehicle capacity weight
and includes the weight of all occupants,
cargo and any additional equipment added to
your
Model S since it was manufactured.
Two labels attached to the center door pillar
indicate how much weight Model S can safely
carry. Labels are visible when the front door is
open.
1.
Tire and Loading Information Label
2.
Vehicle Certification Label
WARNING: Overloading Model S has an adverse effect on braking and handling, which can compromise your safety or cause damage.
CAUTION: Never load more than 110 lbs (50 kg) in the front trunk. Doing so can cause damage.
CAUTION: Never load more than 175 lbs (80 kg) on the rear load floor or in the lower trunk compartment. Doing so can cause damage.
CAUTION: Never store large amounts of liquid in Model S. A significant spill can cause electrical components to malfunction.
Tire and Loading Information
Label
The Tire and Loading Information label
provides:

Canada:
CAUTION: To prevent damage, never load Model S so that it is heavier than GVWR or exceeds the individual GAWR weights.
Calculating Load Limits
1.
Locate the statement “The combined
weight of occupants and cargo should
never exceed XXX lbs or XXX kg” on the
“Tire and Loading Information” label.
2.
Determine the combined weight of all
occupants that will ride in the vehicle.
3.
Subtract the combined weight of the
occupants from XXX lbs or XXX kg (see
Step 1).
4.
The resulting figure equals the available
cargo load capacity. For example, if the
“XXX” amount equals 1400 lbs (635 kg)
and there will be
five 150 lb (68 kg)
passengers in the vehicle, the amount of
available cargo capacity is 650 lbs
(1400

Understanding Tire Markings
Laws require tire manufacturers to place standardized information on the sidewall of all tires. This information identifies and describes the fundamental characteristics of the tire. It also provides the tire identification number (TIN) for certification of safety standards, and in case of a recall.
1Tire category. P indicates that the tire is for passenger vehicles.2Tire width. This 3-digit number is the width (in millimeters) of the tire from sidewall edge to sidewall edge.3Aspect ratio. This 2-digit number is the sidewall height as a percentage of the tread
width. So, if the tread width is 205 mm, and the aspect ratio is 50, the sidewall height is
102 mm.4Tire construction. R indicates that the tire is of Radial ply construction.5Wheel diameter. This 2-digit number is the diameter of the wheel rim in inches.6Load index. This 2 or 3-digit number is the weight each tire can support. This number is not always shown.
