Seat Belt WarningsWarning: Seat belts should be worn by all
occupants at all times, even if driving for a very short distance. Failure to do so
increases the risk of injury or death if an
accident occurs.Warning: Secure small children in a
suitable child safety seat (see Choosing a Child Safety Seat on page 9). Always
follow the child safety seat
manufacturer's instructions when
installing.Warning: Ensure that all seat belts are
worn correctly. An improperly worn seat
belt increases the risk of injury or death if
an accident occurs.Warning: Do not wear seat belts over
hard, fragile or sharp items in clothing, such as pens, keys, eyeglasses, etc. The
pressure from the seat belt on such items can cause injury.Warning: Seat belts should not be worn
with any part of the strap twisted.Warning: Each seat belt assembly must
be used by one occupant only. It is
dangerous to put a seat belt around a
child being carried on an occupant’s lap.Warning: Seat belts that have been worn
in an accident must be inspected or
replaced by Tesla, even if damage to the
assembly is not obvious.Warning: Seat belts that show signs of
wear (such as fraying), or have been cut or damaged in any way, must be replacedby Tesla.Warning: Avoid contaminating a seat
belt’s components with any chemicals,
liquids, grit, dirt or cleaning products. If a
seat belt fails to retract or latch into the
buckle, it must be replaced immediately.
Contact Tesla.Warning: Do not make modifications or
additions that can prevent a seat belt
mechanism from taking up slack, or that
can prevent a seat belt from being
adjusted to remove slack. A slack belt
greatly reduces occupant protection.Warning: Do not make modifications that
can interfere with the operation of a seat
belt, or that can cause a seat belt to
become inoperable.Warning: When seat belts are not in use,
they should be fully retracted and not hanging loose. If a seat belt does not fullyretract, contact Tesla.

The legal warranty established by Sections 129, 130 and 132 of Italian Consumer Code (Legislative
Decree of September 6th, 2005, no. 206) applies to the sale of the Model S vehicle. Therefore you
have the right to have the Model S vehicle brought into conformity free of charge by repair or replacement at your election, unless the remedy requested is impossible or not proportionate; incase of failure of one of the remedies above, you have the right to an appropriate price-reductionor the right to terminate the agreement. Unless it is proven otherwise, it shall be assumed that thedefects arising no later than six (6) months after the delivery of the Model S vehicle already
existed on the date of delivery. You will not be entitled to exercise the above rights in case of failure to notify Tesla of the lack of conformity within two (2) months starting from the date on
which you detected such lack of conformity. In any event, the right to file a complaint before the
Courts intended to assert a lack of conformity not maliciously concealed by Tesla shall
automatically expire twenty-six (26) months after the delivery of the Model S vehicle.
NorwayThe preceding New Vehicle Limited Warranty will not limit or replace your rights according toNorwegian consumer protections laws, including the Consumer Purchase Act. The mandatory
rights which you have according to the Consumer Purchase Act, apply regardless and in addition, and sometimes also replace, the rights set forth in this warranty. Key provisions in the consumer
protection laws are set out below:
Defects – The Consumer Purchase Act sections 15-18
The seller is liable for any defect in the car which existed at time of delivery, cf. the Consumer Purchase Act section 18. Any defect which appears within six months after delivery of the car, is
presumed to have existed on the time of delivery.
The Consumer Purchase Act sections 15-18 establish what constitutes a defect. Standard replacement of consumable parts and normal wear and tear etc. are not considered as defects.
If a claim is made but there should prove to be no defect for which the seller is liable, the seller can only demand payment for necessary investigations undertaken to determine whether the carwas defective, and demand payment for any repair of the car, provided that the seller has
expressly notified you that you may have to cover such expenses.
Complaints – the Consumer Purchase Act section § 27You must make a claim regarding a defect to the seller within a reasonable time of it being
discovered. The time limit to make a claim is never less than two months from the time you
discovered or ought to have discovered the defect.
Unless otherwise stated in the New Vehicle Limited Warranty, the seller is liable for repairing defects on the car which occur during normal use: (i) for a period of five years from the time the
car was delivered to you, or (ii) until the time the car has driven 100,000 kilometers (whichever comes first).
Remedies for breach –the Consumer Purchase Act sections 26-33
In the event the car has a defect which is not due to circumstances on your part, the normal
situation will be that the seller rectifies/repairs the defect in accordance with the Consumer
Purchase Act section 29. Such repair shall be made within reasonable time and without you
incurring costs or substantial inconvenience.
If a repair will prevent you from using the car for more than a week, you may demand a replacement car if this is deemed reasonable in relation to your own needs and the costs and
inconvenience of the seller.
If the seller does not repair the defect within a reasonable time, you may be entitled to demand
the following remedies for defective performance:
• Delivery of substitute car – cf. the Consumer Purchase Act sections 29 and 30
• Reduction in the price - cf. the Consumer Purchase Act section 31
• Rescission (cancellation) – cf. the Consumer Purchase Act section 32
