Touch Show Suspension Data to display
detailed information about the dampers for
each wheel, including ride height,
compression and rebound values, and body accelerations.
Auto-Raising Suspension
Auto-raising suspension saves you from
manually having to raise the suspension every
time you arrive at a frequently-used location
where you have previously raised the
suspension. Whenever you raise the suspension to
High or Very High, you can
touch Always Auto-Raise at This Location to
save the location. When you return to the
saved location,
Model S raises the suspension
and the instrument panel displays a message
indicating that the suspension is being raised.
NOTE: When returning to a saved location
and driving faster than the High and Very High suspension settings allow, the
suspension does not raise until
Model S slows
down.
NOTE: After leaving a saved location, the
suspension automatically lowers. However, it
may not lower until you are driving faster than the speed threshold at which the suspension lowers.
NOTE: If Model S reaches a saved location
and the existing suspension setting is already
higher than the level that has been saved for
that location, the ride height is not adjusted.
To remove an auto-raising location
If you do not want the suspension to auto- raise at a saved location, touch the X in the
auto-raising location status message that
displays at a saved location. Doing so
removes the auto-raise location and the suspension no longer raises automatically
when you arrive at the location.
Self-Leveling
Model S equipped with air suspension
automatically self-levels, even when power is
off. To prevent damage when jacking or lifting
the vehicle, you must activate Jack mode to
disable self-leveling (press the brake pedal
and touch
Controls > Service > Jack Mode).
For more details, see Jack Mode on page 201.

that any non-Tesla repair facility is aware of
these lifting points.

posts.
2.
If your Model S is equipped with air
suspension, it automatically self-levels,
even when power is
off (see Jack Mode on page 201). Use the touchscreen to set
the suspension as follows:

Regenerative braking temporarily reduced
Regen will increase as vehicle is driven
Regenerative braking performance has been temporarily reduced to below 65% of its full capacity. The exact reduction is indicated by the dashed lines on the power meter.
While this alert is present, the deceleration rate of the vehicle due to regenerative braking will be reduced and more brake pedal application will be required to slow the vehicle (similar to
what is needed in a gas-powered, non-electric, vehicle).
This alert is expected under the following conditions:
