Units & Format
Adjust how Model S displays:
•
Distance: Miles or km can be shown on the range display, speedometer, energy chart, trip
meters, Google map searches and navigation routes.
•
Time Format: 12 or 24 hour.
•
Temperature: °C or °F.
•
Energy & Charging: Display remaining energy and charging units as either a percentage of
battery energy remaining, or as an estimate of the distance that you can drive. When you
choose Distance, you can display mileage based on either:
•
Rated - based on EPA testing.
•
Ideal - assumes ideal driving conditions based on driving at a steady speed of 55 mph
(89 km/h) on a flat road, and using no additional energy (seat heaters, air
conditioning, etc).
Note: When anticipating when you need to charge, use range estimates as a general
guideline only.

Vehicle
Note: Depending on date of manufacture and options chosen at time of purchase, some
vehicles are not equipped with all features listed below.
•
Headlights After Exit: If on, headlights stay on for two minutes after you exit, or until you
lock the vehicle (see
•
Adaptive Headlights (if equipped): If on, the Adaptive Front Lighting System (AFS)
automatically adjusts the beam of the headlights to improve your driving view (see
Adaptive Front Lighting System (AFS)
•
Mirror Auto-Tilt: If on, exterior mirrors tilt downward when reversing (see
44).
•
Mirror Auto-Fold: If on, exterior mirrors fold when you lock Model S with the key, mobile
app, or walk-away locking. They extend automatically when you return. You can also fold
the mirrors manually by touching the center mirror control button (see
44).
•
Smart Preconditioning: If on, Model S predicts your driving schedule and automatically
adjusts the temperature of the cabin based on your last set temperature and your driving
schedule, making Model S comfortable and ready to drive. It may take some time for your
vehicle to learn your driving habits and if you do not have a regular driving schedule, it
will be unable to identify a pattern.
Note: To conserve energy in situations where Model S has a low charge level, smart
preconditioning may not occur.
Note: Smart Preconditioning is available only if you save your home and work locations
(see
Favorite, Home, and Work Destinations
•
Cabin Overheat Protection: If on, the air conditioning system can reduce cabin
temperatures in extremely hot ambient conditions for a period of up to twelve hours after
exiting Model S (see
Warning: Never leave children or pets in the vehicle unattended. Due to automatic
shut-off or extreme outside conditions, the inside of the vehicle can become
dangerously hot even with Cabin Overheat Protection enabled.
Note: Cabin Overheat Protection does not operate when the energy remaining in the
Battery is 20% or less.
