Operating Seat Heaters
To control the front seat heaters for the driver and
passenger, touch the corresponding control on the main climate control area at the bottom of the touchscreen.
To control the rear seat heaters (if equipped) or access
duplicate controls for the front seat heaters, touch the
fan icon, then touch the seat heater icon followed by
the seat for which you want to adjust heating. Seat
heaters operate at three setting levels from 3 (highest)
to 1 (lowest). When operating, the associated seat icon
displays twisting lines that turn red to indicate the setting level. You can touch
All Off to turn off all seat
heaters simultaneously.
Adjusting the Front Vents
Model Y has a unique horizontal face-level vent that
spans the width of the dashboard. Using the
touchscreen, you can pinpoint exactly where you want to direct the air
flowing from this vent when heating or
cooling the front cabin area.

Driver vent and controls
2.
Passenger vent and controls
When the face-level vent is on you can adjust the direction of the air
flow from each vent. To adjust the
direction of the air
flow, simply touch the radiating air
waves from the corresponding vent on the touchscreen.
The air
flows in a single stream when centered or splits
into mirrored air streams when air is directed outward or inward from the center of the vent.
When Model Y detects that there are no passengers
sitting in the passenger seat, the passenger vent and controls automatically turn
off. Adjust the climate
settings to enable passenger air
flow.
NOTE: When you split a vent into two separate air
flows, the air flow in each direction is not as strong as
when all air is
flowing in a single direction.
NOTE: Outside air is drawn into Model Y through the
grill in front of the windshield. Keep the grill clear of
obstructions, such as leaves and snow.
Adjusting the Rear Vents
Model Y has vents located at the back of the center
console where air
flows from when the setting is turned
on from the touchscreen. To direct the
flow of air in the
rear cabin area, adjust the vents at the rear of the center console up, down, or from side to side as necessary.

Cleaning the Interior
Frequently inspect and clean the interior to maintain its
appearance and to prevent premature wear. If possible, immediately wipe up spills and remove marks. For general cleaning, wipe interior surfaces using a soft cloth (such as
microfiber) dampened with a mixture of warm
water and mild non-detergent cleaner (test all cleaners on a concealed area before use). To avoid streaks, dry immediately with a soft lint-free cloth.
Interior Glass
Do not scrape, or use any abrasive cleaning fluid on
glass or mirrored surfaces. This can damage the
reflective surface of the mirror and the heating elements
in the rear window.
Airbags
Do not allow any substance to enter an airbag cover. This could
affect correct operation.
Dashboard and Plastic Surfaces
Do not polish the upper surfaces of the dashboard. Polished surfaces are
reflective and could interfere with
your driving view.
Polyurethane Seats
Wipe spills as soon as possible using a soft cloth
moistened with warm water and non-detergent soap.
Wipe gently in a circular motion. After cleaning, allow the seats to air dry.
Be careful with dyes, such as from clothing or denim,
that come into contact with the seats. Dyes can
diffuse

into the seat material over time and cause staining.
CAUTION: Aftermarket, non-Tesla seat covers may
inhibit the sensitivity of seat sensors and may
cause staining or damage.
Cloth Seats
Wipe spills as soon as possible using a soft cloth
moistened with warm water and non-detergent soap. Wipe gently in a circular motion. Then wipe dry using a soft, lint-free cloth. Vacuum the seats as needed to remove any loose dirt.
Carpets
Avoid over-wetting carpets. For heavily soiled areas, use
a diluted upholstery cleaner.
Seat Belts
Extend the belts to wipe. Do not use any type of
detergent or chemical cleaning agent. Allow the belts to dry naturally while extended, preferably away from
direct sunlight.
Touchscreen
Clean the touchscreen using a soft lint-free cloth
specifically designed to clean monitors and displays. Do
not use cleaners (such as a glass cleaner) and do not use a wet wipe or a dry statically-charged cloth (such as a recently washed
microfiber). To wipe the touchscreen
without activating buttons and changing settings, you
can enable Screen Clean Mode. Touch
Controls > Display
> Screen Clean Mode. The display darkens to make it
easy to see dust and smudges. To exit Screen Clean
Mode, press and hold
HOLD TO EXIT.
Chrome and Metal Surfaces
Polish, abrasive cleaners or hard cloths can damage the
finish on chrome and metal surfaces.
Cautions for Interior Cleaning
CAUTION: Using solvents (including alcohol),
bleach, citrus, naphtha, or silicone-based products
or additives on interior components can cause
damage.
CAUTION: Statically-charged materials can cause
damage to the touchscreen.
WARNING: If you notice any damage on an airbag
or seat belt, contact Tesla immediately.
WARNING: Do not allow any water, cleaners, or
fabric to enter a seat belt mechanism.
WARNING: Exposure to chemical cleaners can be
hazardous and can irritate eyes and skin. Read and
observe the instructions provided by the
manufacturer of the chemical cleaner.
