Tesla Built-In Rear Facing Child
Seats
Usage Restrictions
The optional Tesla built-in rear facing child
seats are child restraint systems and are approved to United Nations ECE Regulation
R44.04 standards for use by children in Mass
Groups II and III, weighing 15 - 36 kg. These
seats must only be used for children who are
between 3 and 12 years old, and 98 -
135 cm tall.
Always ensure the top of the child’s head cannot contact the vehicle and that the child
is seated comfortably with the seat belts
positioned and latched correctly. The child’s
pelvis must be held securely in place by the
lap belt. Follow all instructions provided and
do not use supplemental child safety seats in
these seats.
Note: Whenever a child is seated in the Tesla
built-in rear facing child seats, it is
recommended that you set the climate control
system to draw outside air into Model S
instead of recirculating the air. This draws
more air into the rear seating areas.
