Ventilation
Outside air is drawn into Model S through the
grill in front of the windshield. Keep the grill
clear of obstructions such as leaves and snow.
To direct the flow of air inside Model S, move
the interior vents up, down, or from side to
side.
Note:
You can direct the outer face level vents
toward the side windows to help defrost or
defog them.
Cabin Air Filter
Model S has an air
filter that prevents pollen,
industrial fallout, road dust and other particles
from entering through the vents. Tesla
replaces the air
filter at the regularly
scheduled maintenance intervals of every
12 months, or every 20,000 km.
Cabin Overheat Protection
The climate control system can reduce cabin
temperatures in extremely hot ambient
conditions for a period of up to twelve hours
after you exit Model S. When enabled, air
conditioning turns on when cabin
temperatures exceed 40° C. To disable this
feature, touch Controls > Settings > Vehicle >
Cabin Overheat Protection > OFF.
Warning:
Never leave children or pets in
the vehicle unattended. Due to automatic
shut-o 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, or stops operating, when the energy
remaining in the Battery is 20% or less.
Note: Cabin Overheat Protection can be used
only if the Tilt/Intrusion detection system (if
equipped) is turned
o (see Security Settings
on page 132).
