Using Exterior Door Handles

A light press on a door handle extends it,

provided Model S detects a valid key nearby.

If Model S is equipped with the optional tech

package, you can set the door handles to

extend automatically whenever you approach

the driver’s side carrying the key. On the

touchscreen, touch Controls > Settings >

Vehicle > Auto-Present Handles > On.

Insert your hand into the handle and pull to

open the door.

Door handles retract if you do not use them

within one minute after they extend. Just

press a handle to extend it again. Door

handles also retract a minute after the last

door closes, when Model S begins moving,

and when you lock Model S.

Note: To preserve battery life, Model S is

designed to temporarily disable the Auto-

Present Handles feature when:

• The key has been out of range for more

than 48 hours.

• The key remains within range for five

minutes after all doors have been closed.

In these cases, extend the handles by

touching the driver’s door handle or pressing

the unlock button on the key. There is no need

to reset the setting. The next time you

approach Model S, provided the above

conditions do not apply, handles automatically

extend.

Whenever a door is open, the Door

Open indicator displays on the

instrument panel. The image of the

Model S on the touchscreen Controls

window also shows which door or

trunk is open.

Using Interior Door Handles

Pull the interior door handle toward you to

open the door.

Note: To prevent children from opening rear

doors using the interior handles, use the

touchscreen, Controls > Settings > Vehicle >

Child Protection Lock, to turn on the child-

protection locks (see Child-protection Lock on

page 7).

Interior Locking and Unlocking

From inside Model S, you can use the

touchscreen to lock or unlock doors and

trunks, provided a valid key is inside the

vehicle. Touch Controls > Lock/Unlock. The

current lock status displays on the bottom left

of the instrument panel.

Note: If a door or trunk is still open when you

lock Model S, it locks when you close it.
