Exterior Overview
3Overview

CAUTION: Manual door releases are designed to be used only in situations when Model S has no power. When Model S has power, use the button located at the top of the interior door handle.
Interior Locking and Unlocking
While sitting inside Model S, you can lock and
unlock all doors and trunks by touching the lock icon
in Controls.
The icon changes to indicate
whether doors are locked or
unlocked.
Walk-Away Door Lock
Doors and trunks can automatically lock
when you walk away carrying your phone key
or paired key fob. To turn this feature on or
off, touch Controls > Locks > Walk-Away Door Lock.
When the doors lock, the exterior lights flash
once and the mirrors fold (if Fold Mirrors is
on). To also hear a confirmation sound when Model S locks, touch Controls > Locks > Lock Confirmation Sound > ON.
Model S does not automatically lock if:

Cabin Camera
Model S is equipped with a cabin camera
located above the rear view mirror.
The cabin camera is not currently active. If
used in a future safety feature, Tesla will
notify you of its availability through a
software update.
NOTE: Keep the camera lens clean and free of
obstructions. Remove any buildup of dirt or
dust by occasionally wiping the camera lens
with a soft damp cloth.
CAUTION: Do not use chemical-based or abrasive cleaners. Doing so can damage the surface of the camera lens.
Active Road Noise Reduction
NOTE: This feature may not be available at
delivery.
Model S is equipped with Active Road Noise
Reduction. Microphones located in the front
seats detect the amount of external road
noise that can be heard inside the cabin. The system then automatically generates noise
reduction sounds through the speakers,
minimizing the amount of road noise you can
hear.
To turn Active Road Noise Reduction on or off, touch Audio Settings > Options > Active Road Noise Reduction. This may require
several minutes of driving time to calibrate
before enabling.
NOTE: To ensure active noise reduction
operates effectively, avoid covering the
microphones (seat covers, etc.). Active Road
Noise Reduction may disable if a window is
rolled down, door is open, or the fan is turned
up.
CAUTION: To prevent damage to these microphones when cleaning, do not over-saturate the area of the seats where the microphones are located.Interior Storage and Electronics

How Park Assist Works
Model S has several sensors designed to
detect the presence of objects. When driving slowly in Drive or Reverse (for example, when
parking), the vehicle alerts you if an object is
detected in close proximity of your
Model S.
Objects are only detected in the direction of
the gear you selected; front objects in Drive,
rear objects in Reverse.
WARNING: You may not be alerted if Model S rolls freely in the opposite direction of the selected gear (for example, Park Assist does not display an alert if Model S rolls backwards down a hill while in Drive).
The sensors are activated when driving slower
than 5 mph (8 km/h).
WARNING: Never depend on Park Assist to inform you if an area you are approaching is free of objects and/or people. Several external factors can reduce the performance of Park Assist, causing either no readings or false readings (see Limitations and False Warnings on page 71). Therefore, depending on Park Assist to determine if Model S is approaching an obstruction can result in damage to the vehicle and/or objects, and can potentially cause serious injury. Always inspect the area with your own eyes. When reversing, perform shoulder checks and use all mirrors. Park assist does not detect children, pedestrians, bicyclists, animals, or objects that are moving, protruding, located too far above or below the sensors, or too close or too far from the sensors. Park Assist is for guidance purposes only and is not intended to replace your own direct visual checks. It is not a substitute for careful driving.
Visual and Audio Feedback
When you shift to Reverse, the Park Assist
view displays on the left side of the instrument panel, showing objects that are in
close proximity to the front and rear of
Model S. This view closes when you shift into
Drive unless an object is detected close to the
front of
Model S, in which case the Park Assist
view closes automatically when your driving
speed exceeds
5 mph (8 km/h). When
reversing, visual feedback also displays on the
touchscreen (see
Rear View Camera on page 76). You can manually close the park assist
view on the touchscreen by touching the X in
the bottom corner.
When driving with the Camera app displayed
on the touchscreen, you can switch to the
Park Assist view when driving at speeds
below
5 mph (8 km/h). Touch the button
located in the upper left corner of the Camera
app window. This is useful if you need
assistance with parallel parking.
If chimes are turned on (see Controlling Audible Feedback on page 71), an audible
beep sounds as you approach an object. You
can temporarily mute the chime by pressing
the scroll button on the left side of the
steering yoke or by touching the mute button
on the bottom left corner of the Park Assist
view.

Camera Location
Model S is equipped with a rear view camera
located above the rear license plate.
Whenever you shift into Reverse, the
touchscreen displays the view from the
camera. Lines show your driving path based
on the position of the
steering yoke. These
lines adjust as you move the steering yoke.
Model S also displays images from the side
cameras. To view these images, simply swipe
when the view from the rear view camera is displayed.
NOTE: Visual feedback from the parking
sensors also appear on the instrument panel (see Park Assist on page 70).
To display the view from the
rear view cameras at any
time, open the app launcher
and touch the Camera app.
You can also touch the
Camera icon in the Controls
window.WARNING: Never depend on the cameras to inform you if the area behind you is free of objects and/or people. The cameras may not detect objects or barriers that can potentially cause damage or injury. In addition, several external factors can reduce the performance of the cameras, including a dirty or obstructed lens. Therefore, depending on the cameras to determine if Model S is approaching an obstruction can result in damage to the vehicle and/or objects, and can potentially cause serious injury. Always inspect the area with your own eyes. When reversing, perform shoulder checks and use all mirrors. Use the cameras for guidance purposes only. It is not intended to replace your own direct visual checks and is not a substitute for careful driving.
Cleaning a Camera
To ensure a clear picture, the camera lens
must be clean and free of obstructions.
Remove any build-up of dirt or debris by
spraying water onto the camera lens with a
spray bottle or pressure washer.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to remove dirt or debris by wiping an exposed lens with your hands or a cloth. This debris can damage the surface of the lens when rubbed against it during wiping.
CAUTION: Do not use chemical-based or abrasive cleaners. Doing so can damage the surface of the lens.Rear View Camera

best ownership experience possible in harsh cold weather conditions, follow these best
practices.
Before Driving
When snow and ice accumulate on your
vehicle, moving parts, such as the door
handles, windows, mirrors, and wipers can
freeze in place. For these reasons, and to
achieve maximum range and performance, it
is helpful to warm the cabin and Battery before you leave. There are several ways to do so:
