151Using the Touchscreen

Wi-Fi is available as a data connection method and is often faster than cellular data networks. Connecting to Wi-Fi is especially useful in areas with limited or no
cellular connectivity. To ensure fast, reliable delivery of software and map updates, Tesla recommends leaving your vehicle connected to a Wi-Fi network whenever
possible (for example, if parked in your garage
overnight).
To connect to a Wi-Fi network:
1.
Touch the cellular icon (usually LTE or 3G) on the top
corner of your touchscreen. Model Y begins to scan
and display detected Wi-Fi networks that are within
range.
NOTE: If a known Wi-Fi network does not appear in
the list, move your vehicle closer to the access point or consider using a range extender to reach your
vehicle.
2.
Select the Wi-Fi network you want to use, enter the password (if necessary), then touch
Confirm.
3.
Your vehicle connects to the Wi-Fi network. Whenever the network is within range,
Model Y
automatically connects to it.
You can also connect to a hidden network that isn

Charging Equipment
Charging equipment designed specifically to charge
your
Model Y is available from Tesla. A Tesla Wall
Connector, which installs in your parking space, is the
fastest way to charge
Model Y in daily use.
In most market regions, Model Y is equipped with a
Mobile Connector and the adapter(s) needed to plug into the most commonly used power outlets. When
using the Mobile Connector,
first plug the Mobile
Connector into the power outlet, attach an adapter (if needed), and then plug in
Model Y. For more
information about your Mobile Connector, see the Mobile Connector Owner

About the Battery
Model Y has one of the most sophisticated battery
systems in the world. The most important way to preserve the Battery is to
LEAVE YOUR VEHICLE
PLUGGED IN when you are not using it. This is
particularly important if you are not planning to drive
Model Y for several weeks.
NOTE: When left idle and unplugged, your vehicle
periodically uses energy from the Battery for system
tests and recharging the 12V battery when necessary.
There is no advantage to waiting until the Battery
