Interior Emergency Release

An interior release button inside the front trunk
allows a person locked inside to get out. This
release button is active whenever Model S is
stationary.
Press the interior release button to open the front
trunk, then push up on the hood.
Note: The button glows for several hours after a
brief exposure to ambient light.

Opening with No Power
If Model S has no electrical power, or if you are
unable to open the front trunk using the touchscreen
or key, pull the mechanical release lever located
below the glove box. This releases the primary
catch.
Then push down on the secondary catch lever and
lift the hood. You may need to push the hood down
slightly to release the pressure against the
secondary catch.
