Tesla Built-In Rear Facing Child Seats

Usage Restrictions

Tesla Built-In Rear Facing Child Seats
The Tesla built-in rear facing child seats are
child restraint systems and must only be used
for children over 37" (94 cm) tall and weighing
between 35 and 77 lbs (16.2 to 35.2 kg).
Always ensure the top of the child's head
cannot contact the vehicle and that the child is
seated comfortably with the seat belts
positioned and latched correctly. The child's
pelvis must be held securely in place by the lap
belt. Follow all instructions provided and do
not use supplemental child safety seats in
these seats.
NOTE: Whenever a child is seated in the Tesla
built-in rear facing child seats, it is
recommended that you set the climate control
system to draw outside air into Model S instead
of recirculating the air. This draws more air into
the rear seating areas.

Opening

1. Remove the cover from the trunk floor and
pull the strap attached to the seat to lift the
