Child-protection LockModel S has child-protection locks on the rear
doors and liftgate to prevent them from being
opened using interior handles. Use the
touchscreen to turn child protection locks on or off. Touch Controls > Settings > Vehicle >
Child Protection Lock .
Note: It is recommended that you turn child-
protection locks on whenever children are
seated in the rear seats.
Drive-away Locking Model S can automatically lock all doors(including the trunks) whenever your drivingspeed exceeds 5 mph (8 km/h). To turn this
feature on or off, touch Controls > Settings >
Vehicle > Drive-Away Door Lock .
Walk-away Locking If Model S is equipped with the optional tech
package, Model S doors and trunks can automatically lock whenever you walk away
carrying the key.
To turn this feature on or off, touch Controls >
Settings > Vehicle > Walk-Away Door Lock .
Note: If all doors are closed and you double-
click the key to unlock Model S, walk-away
locking is temporarily suspended until Model S
powers on (such as when you press the Brake
pedal to put the car in a driving gear), or until
you use the key to lock Model S. This allows
you to keep Model S unlocked in your garage.Unlocking When the Key Doesn't
Work
If Model S does not unlock when you walk up to it, or when you press the unlock button onyour key, the key’s battery may be dead. If
this is the case, you can still unlock and drive Model S.
To unlock Model S (and disable the security
alarm), first position the key near the base of the passenger side windshield wiper, as
shown. Then press the passenger door handle.
It is important to position the key in the correct position. If Model S doesn't unlock, try
adjusting the position of the key.
To drive Model S, place the key against the
center console, immediately below the 12V power outlet, then press and hold the brakepedal to turn Model S on.
Note: Unlocking Model S using this method
disables walk-away locking. You must manually re-enable walk-away locking afterreplacing the key’s battery.
For instructions on how to replace the key’s battery, see Replacing the Key Battery on
page 5.
Doors
Opening and Closing7

Opening
To open the front trunk:
• Touch Controls > Front Trunk on the
touchscreen, or double-click the front
trunk button on the key.
• Pull the hood up.The door open indicator displays on
the instrument panel when the front
trunk is open. The image of the
Model S on the touchscreen Controls
window also displays the open trunk.
To open the front trunk in the unlikely
situation in which Model S has no electrical
power, see Opening with No Power on page
13.
Closing
The Model S body is made of lightweightaluminum. Therefore, the hood is not heavy
enough to latch under its own weight and
applying pressure on the front edge or center
of the hood can cause damage. To close the hood:
• Lower the hood fully until it touches the latch.
• Place both hands on the front of the hood in the areas shown, then press down
firmly to engage the latches.
• Lift the front edge of the hood to ensure it is fully closed.Caution: To prevent damage:
• Apply pressure only to the green areas illustrated above. Applying
pressure to the red areas can cause
damage.
• Do not close the hood with one hand. Doing so applies concentrated force
in one area and can result in a dent or crease.
• Do not apply pressure to the leading edge of the hood because this can
crease the edge.
• Do not slam or drop the hood.Warning: Do not drive with the hood
secured by the secondary catch alone.

backs to fold completely flat, you may need to move the front seats forward.
To fold a rear seat, press the correspondinglever and fold the seat forward.
Front and Rear Seats
18Model S Owner's Manual

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) that, by pulling the seat belt beyond the length
needed for a typical adult occupant, locks the
belt into place until the seat belt is unbuckled
(see Installing Seat Belt Retained Child Seats
on page 25).
The seat belt reel automatically locks to prevent movement of occupants if Model Sexperiences a force associated with hard
acceleration, braking, cornering, or an impact in a collision.The seat belt reminder on the
instrument panel alerts you if a seat
belt for an occupied seat is not
fastened. If the belt remains
unfastened, the reminder flashes and
an intermittent chime sounds. If all
occupants are buckled up and the
reminder stays on, re-fasten 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.
To Fasten a Belt
1. Ensure correct positioning of the seat.
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 Release a Belt
Hold the belt near the buckle to prevent the
belt from retracting too quickly, then press
the button on the buckle. The belt retracts
automatically. Ensure there is no obstruction
that prevents the belt from fully retracting.
The belt should not hang loose. If a seat belt does not fully retract, contact Tesla.
Wearing Seat Belts When Pregnant Do not put the lap or shoulder sections of the
seat belt over the abdominal area. Wear the
lap section of the belt as low as possible across the hips, not the waist. Position theshoulder portion of the belt between thebreasts and to the side of the abdomen.
Consult your doctor for specific guidance.Warning: Never place anything between
you and the seat belt to cushion the
impact in the event of an accident.
Seat Belts
20Model S Owner's Manual

Seat Belt Pre-tensionersThe front seat belts are equipped with
pre ‑tensioners that work in conjunction with
the airbags in a severe frontal collision. The
pre ‑tensioners automatically retract both the
seat belt anchor and the seat belt webbing, reducing slack in both the lap and diagonalportions of the belts, resulting in reducedforward movement of the occupant.
If the pre-tensioners and airbags did notactivate in an impact, this does not mean they
malfunctioned. It usually means that the
strength or type of force needed to activate them was not present.
Warning: Once the seat belt pre-
tensioners have been activated, they
must be replaced. After any accident,
have the airbags, seat belt pre-tensioners and any associated components checkedand, if necessary, replaced.Testing Seat Belts
To confirm that seat belts are operating
correctly, perform these three simple checks
on each seat belt.
1. With the seat belt fastened, give the
webbing nearest the buckle a quick pull. The buckle should remain securely locked.
2. With the belt unfastened, unreel the
webbing to its limit. Check that unreeling is free from snags, and visually check thewebbing for wear. Allow the webbing toretract, checking that retraction is smoothand complete.
3. With the webbing half unreeled, hold the
tongue plate and pull forward quickly. The
mechanism should lock automatically and
prevent further unreeling.
If a seat belt fails any of these tests, contact Tesla immediately.
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. 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.
Seat Belts
Seating and Safety Restraints21

Seating Larger ChildrenIf a child is too large to fit into a child safety
seat, but too small to safely fit into the standard seat belts, use a booster seat
appropriate for the child’s age and size. Carefully follow the manufacturer’sinstructions to secure the booster seat usingthe seat belts. Do not use the LATCH systemto secure booster seats, even in situationswhere the booster seat is equipped with the
LATCH system.
Installing Child Safety Seats There are two general methods used to install
child safety seats:
• Seat belt retained - these seats are secured using the vehicle’s seat belts (see
Installing Seat Belt Retained Child Seats on page 25).
• LATCH retained - these seats can attach to anchor bars built into the vehicle’s rear
seats (see Installing LATCH Child Seats on
page 26).
Check the child safety seat manufacturer’s
instructions and the table on Child Safety
Seats on page 23 to determine which
installation method to use. Some child safety
seats can be installed using either method.
Always follow the child safety seat
manufacturer’s instructions.
Installing Seat Belt Retained Child Seats
First, make sure that the child falls into the
correct weight range for the seat.
Avoid dressing the child in bulky clothing anddo not place any objects between the childand the restraint system.
Adjust harnesses for every child, every trip.To securely hold child safety seats, all
passenger seating positions are equipped with an automatic locking retractor (ALR) that, by
pulling the seat belt beyond the length
needed for a typical adult occupant, locks the belt into place until the seat belt is unbuckled
and the webbing is fully retracted. The ALR mechanism operates as a ratchet, winding in
slack and preventing the seat belt from
extending any further until it has been
completely rewound. When installing a child
safety seat, engage the belt's automatic locking retractor by pulling the seat belt
webbing until it is fully extended. The ALR
system engages only when the seat belt is at
its maximum extension point.
Note: An automatic locking retractor
disengages only when the seat belt is
unbuckled and fully retracted. The belt can
then be worn as a normal belt, sliding freely in
and out and locking tight only in an
emergency. Once disengaged, the belt must
be fully extended to re-engage the locking
mechanism whenever you install a child safety seat.
Always follow the detailed instructions provided by the child safety seat
manufacturer. General guidelines are provided
below.
1. Place the child safety seat in Model S, and
fully extend the seat belt. Route and
buckle the seat belt in accordance with the child safety seat manufacturer’s
instructions.
2. Allow the seat belt to retract, and remove
all slack in the seat belt while firmly
pushing the child safety seat into the Model S seat.
3. If the seat belt retained child safety seat
has an upper tether, attach it to the back of the seat (see Attaching Upper Tether
Straps on page 26).
Child Safety Seats
Seating and Safety Restraints25

Installing LATCH Child SeatsLower LATCH anchor positions are providedin the second-row outboard seating positions
and are located between the seat's back rest
and rear cushion. The exact location of each
anchor is identified by a child safety seat
identification button, illustrated below. The button is located on the seat back, directlyabove its associated anchor.
Install LATCH seats in the outboard seating
positions only. Use only a seat belt retained
seat in the center position.
To install a LATCH retained child safety seat,
slide the safety seat latches onto the anchorbars until they click into place. Carefully read
and follow the instructions provided by the child safety seat manufacturer.
Once installed, test the security of the
installation before seating a child. Attempt to
twist the child safety seat from side to side and try to pull it away from the seat, then
check that the anchors are still securely in place.
Attaching Upper Tether Straps
If an upper tether strap is provided, attach its
hook to the anchor point located on the back
of the rear seats. Always position single-strap
tethers so that it runs over the center of the
Model S head support. Tighten dual-strap
tethers to run on each side of the head
support. Tighten according to the child safety
seat manufacturer’s instructions.
Note: To prevent single-strap tethers from
moving from side to side, the top of the head
support deforms.
Child Safety Seats
26Model S Owner's Manual

Testing a Child Safety SeatBefore seating a child, always make sure thechild 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.
Warnings - Child Safety SeatsWarning: 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: 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's spine and neck are not sufficientlydeveloped to avoid injury in a frontal
impact.Warning: Do not allow a baby or infant to
be held on a lap. All children should be
restrained in an appropriate child safety
seat at all times.Warning: To ensure children are safely
seated, follow all instructions provided in this document and by the manufacturerof the child safety seat.Warning: Children should ride in a rear
facing child safety seat using the seat’s
integrated 5-point harness for as long as
possible.Warning: Do not use seat belt extenders
when installing a child safety seat or booster seat.Warning: When seating larger children,
make sure the child's head is supported and the child’s seat belt is properlyadjusted and fastened. The shoulder
portion of the belt must be away from the face and neck, and the lap portion mustnot be over the stomach.Warning: Never attach two child safety
seats to one anchor point. In a collision,one anchor point may be incapable of
securing both seats.Warning: Child restraint anchorages are
designed to withstand only those loads imposed by correctly fitted child
restraints. Under no circumstances are
they to be used for adult seatbelts,
harnesses, or for attaching other items or equipment to the vehicle.Warning: Always check harnesses and
tether straps for damage and wear.Warning: Do not use seat belt extenders
on a seat belt that is being used to install
a child safety seat or booster seat.Warning: Never leave a child unattended,
even if the child is secured in a child
safety seat.Warning: Never use a child safety seat
that has been involved in an accident.
Have the seat inspected or replaced as a
described in the child safety seat
manufacturer’s instructions.

Usage Restrictions
The optional Tesla built-in rear facing child
seats are child restraint systems and must
only be used for children over 37" (94 cm) tall
and weighing between 35 and 77 lbs (16.2 to
35.2 kg).
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’spelvis must be held securely in place by thelap belt. Follow all instructions provided anddo not use supplemental child safety seats inthese seats.
Note: Whenever a child is seated in the Tesla
