USB Hub Connections
Your Model S has two USB connections
located on the front of the center console that
you can use to connect USB devices. To play
audio
files stored on a USB drive connected to
these ports, see My Music & Devices on page
112. You can also use these connections to charge USB devices.
Note: Do not connect multiple devices using a
USB hub. This can prevent connected devices
from charging or from being recognized by
the Media Player.
12V Power Socket
Your Model S has a power socket located on
the front of the center console. Power is
available whenever the instrument panel and
touchscreen are on.
The 12V power socket is suitable for
accessories requiring up to 11A continuous
draw (15A peak) or a maximum of 150
continuous watts (180 watts peak).
Note: In situations where Model S is unable to detect the key (low battery, interference, etc.),
place it immediately below the 12V power
socket where Model S can best detect it.
Warning: The power socket and an
accessory

Warning: The high voltage system has no user serviceable parts. Do not disassemble, removeor replace high voltage components, cables or connectors. High voltage cables are coloredorange for easy
identification.
Warning: Read and follow all instructions provided on the labels that are attached to Model S.
These labels are there for your safety.Warning: In the unlikely event that a fire occurs, immediately contact your local fireemergency responders.Charging Equipment
Charging equipment designed
specifically to
charge your Model S is available from Tesla. A
Tesla Wall Connector, which installs in your
garage, is the fastest way to charge Model S at home.
In several market regions, Model S is equipped
with a Mobile Connector and the adapter(s)
you need to plug into commonly used power
outlets. When using the Mobile Connector,
first plug the Mobile Connector into the power
outlet, then plug in Model S. For more
information about your Mobile Connector, see
the Mobile Connector Owner

Charging StatusThe following illustration is provided for demonstration purposes only and may vary slightly
depending on the software version and market region of your Model S.1. Charging rate per hour.
2. Total estimated driving distance (or energy) available. Instead of drivingdistance as shown here, you can display
the percentage of battery energy
remaining. To do so, touch Controls > Settings > Units & Format > Energy &
Charging.
Note: A portion of the battery image may
appear blue. This indicates that a small
portion of the energy stored in the battery
is not available on your drive because the
battery is cold. This is normal and no
reason for concern. When the battery warms up, the blue portion is no longer
displayed.
3. Current being supplied/Total current available from the connected power
supply (see Changing Charge Settings on
page 132).
4. Estimated increase in driving distance (or energy) achieved so far in this chargingsession. Instead of driving distance as
illustrated above, you can change settings
to display the amount of energy achieved.
To do so, touch Controls > Settings > Units
& Format > Energy & Charging.5. Charging status information displays here.
For example, if Model S is charging, it
displays the time remaining until fully
charged at the currently selected charge
level. When scheduled charging is set for a
location, it displays when charging will
start.
6. Voltage being supplied by the charge cable.
Note: If Model S is charging and detects

Inflating with Sealant and Air
If you have a Tesla tire repair kit, follow these
steps to temporarily repair a small tire
puncture (less than 1/4”/6 mm)).
1. Stop Model S in a safe place away from
traffic and ask passengers to wait in a safe
area.
2. Turn on the hazard warning
flashers to
alert other road users.
3. If possible, position the wheel with the puncture at the bottom.
4. Detach the power supply connector from the back of the compressor and plug it
into the 12V power socket located on the
front of center console.
5. Release the clear plastic hose from the tire
compressor.
6. Remove the red cap and screw the end of the hose onto the tire

Inflating with Air Only
If you have a Tesla tire repair kit, follow these
steps to
inflate a tire with air:
1. Detach the power supply connector from the rear of the compressor and plug it into
the 12V power socket located in Model S
on the front of center console.
2. Release the black air hose from the compressor.
3. Attach the air hose to the valve and press the lever down to secure it in place.
4. Ensure the compressor is lying on a level
surface with the pressure gauge facing tothe side where you can read it.
5. To add air, turn on the compressor and
inflate until the desired pressure is
reached.
6. To release air, turn
off the compressor,
then press and hold the red button until
the desired pressure is reached.
Note: For your convenience, the tire repair kit
includes a selection of adapters that allow you to
inflate other items. These adapters are
located in a compartment on the back of the
compressor.
Caution: To avoid overheating, do not use
the compressor continuously for more
than eight minutes. Allow the compressor
to cool for 15 minutes between uses.Caution: The compressor runs slowly
when overheated from excessive use. Turn
it
off and allow it to cool.Temporary Tire Repair

Cleaning the ExteriorTo prevent damage to the paint, immediately
remove corrosive substances (bird droppings, tree resin, dead insects, tar spots, road salt,
industrial fallout, etc). Do not wait until
Model S is due for a complete wash. If
necessary, use denatured alcohol to remove
tar spots and stubborn grease stains, then
immediately wash the area with water and a
mild, non-detergent soap to remove the
alcohol.
Follow these steps when washing the exterior
of Model S:
1. Rinse Thoroughly Before washing,
flush grime and grit from
the bodywork using a hose. Flush away
accumulations of mud in areas where
debris easily collects (such as wheel
arches and panel seams). If salt has been used on the highways (such as during
winter months), thoroughly rinse all traces of road salt from the underside of thevehicle.
2. Hand Wash
Hand wash Model S using a clean soft
cloth and cold or lukewarm water
containing a mild, good quality car
shampoo.
3. Rinse with Clean Water
After washing, rinse with clean water to
prevent soap from drying on the surfaces.
4. Dry Thoroughly and Clean Exterior Glass
After washing and rinsing, dry thoroughly
with a chamois.
Clean windows and mirrors using an automotive glass cleaner. Do not scrape,
or use any abrasive cleaning
fluid on glass
or mirrored surfaces.
Cautions for Exterior CleaningCaution: Do not use windshield treatmentfluids. Doing so can interfere with wiper
friction and cause a chattering sound.Caution: Do not use hot water and
detergents.Caution: In hot weather, do not wash in direct sunlight.Caution: If using a pressure washer,
maintain a distance of at least 12" (30 cm)
between the nozzle and the surface of
Model S. Keep the nozzle moving and do
not concentrate the water jet on any one
area.Caution: Do not aim water hoses directly
at window, door or hood seals, or through
wheel apertures onto brake components.Caution: Avoid using tight-napped or
rough cloths, such as washing mitts.Caution: If washing in an automatic car
wash, use Touchless car washes only. These car washes have no parts (brushes,
etc.) that touch the surfaces of Model S.
Using any other type of car wash could
cause damage that is not covered by the
warranty.Caution: Do not used chemical based
wheel cleaners. These can damage the
finish on the wheels.
Caution: Avoid using a high pressure
power washer on the rear view camera or
parking sensors (if equipped) and do not
clean a sensor or camera lens with a
sharp or abrasive object that can scratch
or damage its surface.

Replacing a Fuse
To remove a fuse box cover, press the plastic
tabs on either side.
Identify the fuse protecting the affectedcircuit. Refer to the label on the inside of the
fuse box cover or the fuse tables provided in this section.
