Load ratingThe maximum load that a tire is rated to carry for a given inflation pressure.Maximum load
ratingThe load rating for a tire at the maximum permissible inflation pressure
for that tire.Measuring rimThe rim on which a tire is fitted for physical dimension requirements.Open spliceAny parting at any junction of tread, sidewall, or inner liner that extends
to the cord material.Outer diameterThe overall diameter of an inflated new tire.Overall widthThe linear distance between the exteriors of the sidewalls of an inflated tire, including elevations due to labeling, decorations, or protective bands
or ribs.PlyA layer of rubber-coated parallel cords.Ply separationA parting of rubber compound between adjacent plies.Pneumatic tireA mechanical device made of rubber, chemicals, fabric and steel or other
materials, that, when mounted on an automotive wheel, provides the
traction and contains the gas or
fluid that sustains the load.
Radial ply tireA pneumatic tire in which the ply cords that extend to the beads are laid
at substantially 90 degrees to the center line of the tread.Reinforced tireA tire designed to operate at higher loads and at higher inflation pressures than the corresponding standard tire.Section widthThe linear distance between the exteriors of the sidewalls of an inflated tire, excluding elevations due to labeling, decoration, or protective bands.SidewallThe portion of a tire between the tread and bead.Sidewall
separationThe parting of the rubber compound from the cord material in the
sidewall.Snow tireA tire that attains a traction index equal to or greater than 110, compared
to the ASTM E1136-93 (re-approved 2003, incorporated by reference, see

DO NOT TRANSPORT WITH
WHEELS ON THE GROUND
The front and rear motors in Model S generate power when the wheels spin. Always
transport Model S with all four tires off the
ground. Ensure that the tires are unable to
spin at any time during transport.
WARNING: NEVER TRANSPORT YOUR VEHICLE WITH THE TIRES IN A POSITION WHERE THEY CAN SPIN. DOING SO CAN LEAD TO SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE AND OVERHEATING. IN RARE CASES EXTREME OVERHEATING MAY CAUSE THE SURROUNDING COMPONENTS TO IGNITE.
Do not transport Model S using any method
that is not specified by Tesla. Adhere to the
instructions provided in the following sections
and observe all warnings and cautions provided. Damage caused by improper transporting of your vehicle is not covered by
the warranty.
NOTE: Tesla is not liable or responsible for
reimbursing services not dispatched through
Tesla Roadside Assistance.
Approved Methods for
Transporting
A flatbed truck or comparable transport
vehicle is the recommended method of
transporting
Model S. The vehicle can face
either direction when using a flatbed.
If Model S must be transported without a flatbed truck, then wheel lifts and dollies must
be used to ensure that all four wheels are off
of the ground. This method may only be used
for a maximum of 35 miles (55 km), and must
not exceed the manufacturer speed rating of
the dollies. With this method, Tesla
recommends the vehicle faces forward so that
the front wheels are lifted and the rear wheels
are on dollies.
NOTE: Transporting Model S with the front
wheels on dollies is not recommended, but
may be done if an external
steering yoke lock
is applied and care is taken to prevent the
front wheels from spinning.
CAUTION: DO NOT TRANSPORT YOUR VEHICLE IF THERE IS ANY CHANCE OF ANY OF THE WHEELS SPINNING.
CAUTION: Enable Transport Mode (see Activate Transport Mode on page 219) before winching Model S onto a flatbed truck. If Transport Mode is not available or the touchscreen is not accessible, self-loading dollies or tire skates must be used to load the vehicle into the approved transportation position. Tesla is not responsible for any damage caused by or during the transport of Model S, including personal property damage or damage caused by using self-loading dollies or tire skates.
NOTE: Transport Mode is only intended to
allow for winching Model S onto a flatbed truck or repositioning the vehicle out of a
parking space. While in Transport Mode, the
tires are allowed to rotate slowly (under
3 mph or 5 km/h) and for a very short distance
(less than 30 feet or 10 meters). See Activate Transport Mode on page 219. Exceeding
these boundaries can lead to significant
damage and overheating that is not covered
by the warranty.
Instructions for Transporters
218MODEL S Owner

You can request Tesla roadside assistance options (mobile tire, loaner wheel, tow) if required.
See Contacting Tesla Roadside Assistance on page 217 for more information.
In a non-emergency situation, it is recommended that you visit your local Service Center for
assistance.
See Maintaining Tire Pressures on page 188 for detailed information on how to keep the tires
properly inflated.
The alert should clear once the Tire Pressure Monitoring System has a consistent tire pressure
measurement for each of your tires of at least 30 psi.
