5. Test that the key fob works by unlocking and locking
Model Y.
WARNING: Key fob batteries contain a chemical
burn hazard and should not be ingested. The key
fob contains a coin cell battery. If the coin cell
battery is swallowed, it can cause severe internal
burns within two hours and can lead to death.
Keep new and used batteries away from children. If
the battery compartment does not close securely,
stop using the product and keep it away from
children. If you think batteries might have been
swallowed or placed inside any part of the body,
seek immediate medical attention.
Managing Keys
To display a list of all keys (phone keys, key cards, and key fobs) that can access your
Model Y, touch Controls

whether the key is a phone key, key card, or key fob. Use
this list to manage keys that have access to your
Model
Y. To add or delete keys, see Adding and Removing Keys
on page 13.
Model Y supports up to 19 keys. When you reach this
limit, you must delete a key before adding a new one.
NOTE: You can use the same key for more than one
Model Y. This prevents you from having to deal with
multiple keys when you switch vehicles. If you customize the name of an authenticated key card or key fob on one
Model Y (by touching the pencil icon), any other Model
Y to which the key card or key fob is authenticated also
displays the changed name.
Adding and Removing Keys

temperature. Pairing a key fob that is very cold can be unsuccessful.

confirm new key pairing.
4.
When complete, the key list includes the new key.
Touch the associated pencil icon to customize the name of the key.
Removing a key:
When you no longer want a key to access Model Y (for
example, you lost your phone or key card, etc.), follow these steps to remove it.1.
On the touchscreen, touch Controls > Locks.
2.
In the key list, find the key that you would like to
delete and touch its associated trash icon.

card or key fob at all times. If only one key card remains on the key list, you cannot delete it.
