2022 TESLA MODEL Y length

Wearing Seat Belts
Using seat belts and child safety seats is the most
effective way to protect occupants if a collision occurs.
Therefore, wearing a seat belt is required by law in most jurisdictions.
Both the driver and passenger seats are equipped with three-point inertia reel seat belts. Inertia reel belts are automatically tensioned to allow occupants to move
comfortably during normal driving conditions.
To
securely hold child safety seats, all passenger seating
positions are equipped with an automatic locking
retractor (ALR) feature that, by fully extracting the seat
belt (beyond the length needed for a typical adult
occupant), locks the belt into place until the seat belt is
unbuckled.
The seat belt reel automatically locks to prevent
movement of occupants if
Model Y experiences a force
associated with hard acceleration, braking, cornering, or
an impact in a collision.
Seat Belt Reminders
The seat belt reminder on the touchscreen
alerts you if a seat belt for an occupied driver or passenger seat is unbuckled. If
the belt remains unbuckled, the reminder
flashes and an intermittent chime sounds.
If all occupants are buckled up and the
reminder stays on, re-buckle seat belts to
ensure they are correctly latched. Also
remove any heavy objects (such as a
briefcase) from an unoccupied seat. If the
reminder light continues to stay on,
contact Tesla.
You can temporarily mute a seat belt reminder
associated with a rear seating position. This is useful in situations when you are carrying an object in a rear seat
that triggers the seat belt reminder alert. To mute the reminder, touch the associated seat on the seat belt reminder card that displays on the touchscreen when a seat belt reminder alert is active. When a reminder is muted, the seat belt reminder icon is replaced by a seat icon. Touch the seat again to unmute the reminder. The reminder is disabled for the current drive only.
WARNING: Seat belts must be worn by passengers
in all seating positions. Do not disable a seat belt
reminder when the seating position is occupied by
a passenger.
To Fasten a Belt
1.
Ensure correct positioning of the seat (see Correct
Driving Position on page 23).
2. Draw the belt out smoothly, ensuring the belt lays flat
across the pelvis, chest and mid-point of your collar
bone, between the neck and shoulder.
3.
Insert the latch plate into the buckle and press together until you hear a click indicating it is locked
in place.
4.
Pull the belt to check that it is securely fastened.
5.
Pull the diagonal part of the belt toward the reel to
remove excess slack.
To Adjust the Shoulder Anchor
Height
Model Y is equipped with an adjustable shoulder anchor
for each front seat to ensure that the seat belt is positioned correctly. The seat belt should lay
flat across
the mid-point of your collar bone while in the correct driving position
(see Correct Driving Position on page
23. Adjust the height of the shoulder anchor if the seat
belt is not positioned correctly:
1.
Press and hold the button on the shoulder anchor to release the locking mechanism.
2.
While holding the button, move the shoulder anchor up or down as necessary so that the seat belt is
positioned correctly.
3.
Release the button on the shoulder anchor so that it
locks into position.

29Seating and Safety Restraints

NOTE: When testing chocks, ensure that Vehicle Hold
(see
Vehicle Hold on page 66) is not engaged. If
Vehicle Hold is braking
Model Y, the Vehicle Hold
indicator light displays on the touchscreen. To
disengage Vehicle Hold, press and release the brake
pedal.
4.
Place the vehicle in Park.
WARNING: If parking on a grade is necessary,
always ensure that all trailer wheels have been
securely chocked. Failure to do so can result in
serious damage or injury.
Trailer Sway Mitigation
When trailer sway is detected, the electronic stability control system attempts to apply the appropriate amount of braking to minimize trailer sway. The touchscreen
briefly displays the traction control system
indicator. Pressing the brake pedal when the system is actively braking to mitigate trailer sway does not cancel this automatic braking.
Attaching and Removing the Ball
Mount
The Model Y towing package does not include a ball
mount. You must purchase a ball mount suitable for the type of trailer you are towing. The
Model Y hitch receiver
supports a ball mount with a length of up to
8.5” (22
cm) and a rise of up to 0.75” (2 cm). Do not use any
type of drop ball mount that does not meet these requirements.
To attach a ball mount:
1. Remove the dust cover from the hitch housing by
using a small object, such as a
flat screwdriver, to pry
between the dust cover and hitch housing. Store the dust cover in a secure location.
2.
If necessary, remove the cotter pin from the locking
bolt and slide the locking bolt out of the hitch assembly.
3.
Slide the ball holder into the hitch assembly.
4.
Align the hole in the ball holder with the one in the hitch assembly.
5.
Slide the locking bolt through the hitch assembly/ball holder.
6.
Insert the cotter pin in the hole at the end of the
locking bolt.
To remove a ball mount:
1.
Remove the cotter pin from the locking bolt and slide
the locking bolt out of the ball holder/hitch assembly.
2.
Pull the ball holder out of the hitch assembly.
3.
Re-install the dust cover for the hitch housing and store the ball mount in a secure location.
Electrical Connections
Regulations require all trailers to be equipped with tail lights, brake lights, side marker lights, and turn signals.
To provide power for trailer lighting, a built-in 7-pin wiring connector is provided near the hitch support

Storage
If you leave Model Y parked for an extended period of
time, plug it into a charger to prevent normal range loss
and to keep the Battery at an optimal temperature. Your vehicle is safe to stay plugged in for any length of time.
When not in use, Model Y enters a sleep mode to
conserve energy. Reduce the number of times you check
your vehicle
