pairing phone TESLA MODEL Y 2023 Owners Manual

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
> Locks. An icon displays next to each key to indicate
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
To add a new key card or key fob:
NOTE: When adding a key fob, ensure it is at room
temperature. Pairing a key fob that is very cold can be unsuccessful.
1.
On the touchscreen, touch Controls > Locks > Keys >
Add Key.
2.
Scan your new key card or key fob on the card reader located behind the cup holders on the top of the center console. After the new key card or key fob is recognized, remove it from the card reader.
3.
Scan a key card or key fob that has already been paired to the vehicle to
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.
3.
When prompted, scan an authenticated key card or key fob on the card reader to
confirm the deletion.
When complete, the key list no longer includes the
deleted key.
NOTE: Model Y requires at least one authenticated key
card or key fob at all times. If only one key card remains on the key list, you cannot delete it.

13Opening and Closing

Unpairing a Bluetooth Phone
If you want to disconnect your phone and use it again
later, simply touch
Disconnect on the Bluetooth settings
screen. If you no longer want to use your phone with
Model Y, touch Forget This Device. Once you forget a
device, you must pair it again if you want to use it with
Model Y (see Pairing a Bluetooth Phone on page 133).
NOTE: Your phone automatically disconnects when you
leave
Model Y.
NOTE: Unpairing the phone has no effect on using the
phone as a key. To forget an authenticated phone, see
Managing Keys on page 13.
Connecting to a Paired Phone
Model Y automatically connects to a phone that you
designated as
Priority Device on the Bluetooth settings
screen. If you have not set a phone as a priority,
Model Y
connects to the last phone to which is was connected, provided it is within operating range and has Bluetooth
turned on. If the last phone is not within range, it attempts to connect with the next phone that it has
been paired with.
To connect to a different phone, touch the Bluetooth
icon at the top of the
Controls screen. The Bluetooth
settings screen displays a list of paired phones. Choose
the phone you want to connect to, then touch
Connect.
If the phone you want to connect to is not listed, you
must pair the phone. See
Pairing a Bluetooth Phone on
page 133.
When connected, the Bluetooth settings screen displays the Bluetooth symbol next to the phone

NOTE: Use a USB port located at the front of the center
console. The USB connections at the rear of the console are for charging only.
NOTE: For some vehicles manufactured after
approximately November 1, 2021, the center console USB ports may only support charging devices. Use the USB port inside the glove box for all other functions.
