About the Security System

Security Settings
If Model S does not detect a key nearby and a
locked door or trunk is opened, the horn beeps
and headlights and turn signals flash. To
deactivate the alarm, press any button on the
key.
You can manually enable or disable the alarm
system by touching 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. If the Tilt/Intrusion setting is on, this siren
sounds when Model S detects motion inside the
cabin or if it is raised (for example, with a tow
truck or jack) when doors are locked and a
recognized key is not detected. To turn the tilt
and intrusion detection system 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.
