Maps and Navigation
The location is equipped with a
Tesla Wall Connector. Touch to
display more information such as
usage restrictions and available
charge current. The charging list
also displays your proximity to
these charging stations.
Note: When the map is zoomed out
and more than one Tesla Wall
Connector is available in an area,
the pin is round and displays the
number of stations. Touch the pin
to zoom in. Then you can touch an
individual pins for detail about the
charging location.
Predicting Energy Usage
When navigating to a destination, Model S
helps you anticipate your charging needs by
calculating the amount of energy that remains
when you reach your destination. The
calculation is an estimate based on driving
style (predicted speed, etc.) and
environmental factors (elevation changes,
temperature, etc.). When navigating, the map
displays this calculation at the bottom of the
expanded turn-by-turn direction list (see
Navigating
on page 124). When the turn-by-
turn direction list is compressed, touch the top
of the list to expand it.
Throughout your route, Model S monitors
energy usage and updates the calculation. A
popup warning displays at the bottom of the
turn-by-turn direction list in these situations:
A yellow warning displays when you have
very little energy remaining to reach your
destination and should drive slowly to
conserve energy. For tips on conserving
energy, see
Getting Maximum Range
page 76.
A red warning displays when you must
charge to reach your destination.
If you also want to know if you have enough
energy for a round trip, touch the energy
calculation to display an estimate of your
round trip energy usage.

Online Routing
Model S detects real-time traffic conditions
and automatically adjusts the estimated
driving and arrival times based on traffic. In
situations where traffic conditions will delay
your estimated time of arrival and an alternate
route is available, the navigation system can
reroute you to your destination. To turn this
feature on or off, touch the map's settings
icon (see
Overview
Online Routing. You can also specify the
minimum amount of minutes that must be
saved before you are rerouted by touching the
arrows associated with the Re-Route if it saves
more than setting.
Trip Planner
Trip Planner (available in some market
regions) helps you take longer road trips with
confidence. If reaching your destination
requires charging, Trip Planner routes you
through the appropriate Supercharger
locations. Trip Planner selects a route and
provides charging times to minimize the
amount of time you spend driving and
charging. To enable Trip Planner, touch the
map's settings icon (see
123), then touch Trip Planner.
When Trip Planner is enabled and charging is
required to reach your destination, the turn-
by-turn direction list includes Supercharger
stops and a recommended charging time at
each Supercharger, and an estimate of how
much energy will be available when you arrive
at the Supercharger.
To remove Supercharger stops and display
only directions, touch Remove charging stops
at the bottom of the list of directions (if you
remove charging stops, the turn-by-turn
on
direction list may display an alert indicating
that charging is needed to reach your
destination). To add Supercharger stops to the
directions, touch Add charging stops.
While charging at a Supercharger, the
charging screen displays the remaining
charging time needed to drive to your next
Supercharger stop, or destination (if no
further charging is needed). If you charge for a
shorter or longer length of time, the charging
time for subsequent Supercharger stops is
adjusted.
Note: You can also monitor remaining
charging time needed in the Tesla Mobile App.
Note: If a Supercharger located on your route
experiences an outage, Trip Planner displays a
on page 123), then touch
