About the Security System
If Model S does not detect a key nearby and a
locked door or trunk is opened, an alarm
sounds and headlights and turn signals flash.
To deactivate the alarm, press any button on
the key.
To manually enable or disable the alarm
system, touch Controls > Settings > Safety &
Security > Alarm. When set to on, Model S
activates its alarm one minute after the doors
lock and a recognized key is no longer
detected nearby.
If Model S is equipped with the optional
security package, it includes a battery-backed
siren that sounds instead of the horn in
situations where a locked door or trunk is
opened and Model S does not detect a key
nearby. If the Tilt/Intrusion setting is on, the
siren also sounds if Model S detects motion
inside the cabin or if it is raised (for example,
with a tow truck or jack). To turn the tilt/
intrusion detection systems on or off, touch
Controls > Settings > Safety & Security > Tilt/
Intrusion.
Note: If you plan to leave something that
moves, such as a dog, inside your locked
Model S, remember to turn off the tilt/
intrusion system. Any type of motion detected
inside Model S activates the siren.
