Calibrating Seats
(If equipped) You can calibrate the driver seat. This is useful if you
find your seat range limited or your driver
profile does not automatically adjust the seat for you.
Navigate to
Controls > Service > Driver Seat, Steering &
Mirrors Calibration and follow the instructions on the
touchscreen.
WARNING: Ensure nothing is behind or
underneath the driver seat during calibration.
Failure to do so may cause serious injury.
Folding Rear Seats
Model S has a split rear seat that can fold forward.
Before folding, remove items from the seats and the rear footwell. To allow the rear seats to fold completely
flat,
you may need to move the front seats forward. To fold a
rear seat, push the corresponding button on the back of the seat.
You can also fold the rear seats fully forward by pressing the corresponding switch located on the left side of the rear trunk. Pressing the switch causes the seat to unlatch. You can then push it downward to lay it fully
flat.
To return the seats to their upright position, pull
upwards until it locks into place. To
confirm that the seat
is locked in the upright position, try pulling it forward.
NOTE: Driving with the rear seats folded may increase
noise in the cabin area (for example, you may hear vibration sounds coming from the rear of the vehicle
such as the trunk, suspension, etc.).
CAUTION: While raising a rear seat back, hold the
seat belt out of the way to ensure that the seat
belt is not trapped behind the backrest or caught
in the seat latch.
WARNING: Always ensure that the seats are
locked in their upright position by attempting to
push it forward or rearward, ensuring the latch is
fully engaged. Failure to do so can increase the
risk of injury.

The front seats include integrated head supports that you cannot adjust.
The rear outboard seating positions include an
adjustable head support that can be raised/lowered or
removed. The head support should always be raised and locked into position (so that the center is aligned with the center of the occupant
