WARNING: To avoid burns resulting from prolonged use, individuals who have peripheral neuropathy, or
whose capacity to feel pain is limited because of diabetes, age, neurological injury, or some other condition,
should exercise caution when using the climate control system and seat heaters.
NOTE: The climate control system is powered by the high voltage battery. Therefore, prolonged use decreases
driving range.
Adjusting Climate Control Settings
To adjust individual settings to suit your preferences, touch the fan icon at the bottom of the touchscreen to access
individual climate control settings.
In addition to the settings shown, if Model S is in Park, the Keep Climate On, Dog Mode, and Camp Mode setting
displays when you touch the fan icon when the vehicle is in Park (see
Keep Climate On, Dog Mode, and Camp Mode
on page 127).
1.
Adjust the speed of the fan.
NOTE: Adjusting the fan speed may change your setting for how air is drawn into Model S in order to decrease or
increase airflow. For example, if you set the fan speed at the highest setting when the air circulation is set to draw
in outside air, the setting may switch to recirculating the air to achieve the high air flow.
2.
Touch to turn o the climate control system and close the climate controls popup window.
NOTE: The popup window also closes if you touch the map, choose Media Player or an app, or display a controls
window, even if the climate control system is turned on.
3.
Turn the air conditioning on and o, respectively. Turning it o reduces cooling, but saves energy.
4.
Choose where air flows into the cabin (windshield, face-level, or foot-level vents). You can choose more than one
location.
NOTE: When air is directed to the foot-level vents, approximately one third of the air continues to flow to the
windshield vents to assist in defogging. However, when air is directed to the face-level vents, air does not flow to
the windshield because the air flowing through the face-level vents can assist in defogging the windshield.
5. If your Model S is equipped with the medical-grade HEPA (High Eciency Particulate Air) filter, this filter ensures
the best quality air inside the cabin whenever the climate control system is on and outside air is entering the
cabin (i.e. recirculate is
o). The HEPA filter is extremely eective at removing particles, including pollution,
allergens, bacteria, pollen, mold spores, and viruses. Both the HEPA filter and the secondary filtration system also
contain activated carbon to remove a broad spectrum of odors and gases. When you engage Bioweapon Defense
Mode, the positive pressure inside the cabin minimizes the amount of outside air that can enter the vehicle.
NOTE: Some gases, such as carbon monoxide, are not eectively removed by activated carbon.
