Customizing Climate Control
The climate control system is designed to automatically provide optimum comfort in most
situations. All you need to do is set the desired temperature, and the air conditioning, air
recirculation, air distribution, and fan speed automatically maintain your selected temperature.
You can even keep the climate control system on while you are away from the vehicle so that the
selected temperature is maintained.
To override the automatic setting, touch AUTO to customize individual settings. Then touch the
setting you want to change. When you change a setting, the AUTO icon turns from blue to gray
and RESET AUTO displays instead. Touch RESET AUTO to change all settings on the panel back to
their defaults. Or, you can touch AUTO associated with any individual setting to change it back to
its default.
In addition to the five settings shown above (and described below), if Model S is in Park, a Climate
Timer displays below the above popup (see Keep Climate On on page 114).
1. Touch RESET AUTO to change all settings back to their default values.
2. Touch A/C ON or A/C OFF to turn the air conditioning on and
o, respectively. Turning it o
reduces cooling, but saves energy.
Because Model S runs much quieter than a gasoline-powered vehicle, you may notice the
sound of the A/C compressor as it is operating. To minimize noise, reduce the fan speed.
