Glovebox
To open the glovebox, press the switch located on the
side of the touchscreen. The glovebox locks whenever
Model S is locked externally, using the key or walk-away
locking. It also locks when
Model S is in Valet mode (see
Valet Mode on page 40). It does not lock when you
lock Model S using the lock icon on the touchscreen's
status bar.
For additional glovebox security, touch Controls >
Safety > Glovebox PIN to set a 4-digit PIN (see
Glovebox PIN on page 142).
NOTE: If you leave the glovebox open, its light
eventually turns o.
WARNING:
When driving, keep the glovebox
closed to prevent injury to a passenger if a
collision or sudden stop occurs.
USB Ports
Your Model S has two USB ports located on the front of
the center console that you can use to connect USB
devices. To play audio
files stored on a USB drive
connected to these ports, see Playing Media from
Devices on page 130. You can also use these ports to
charge USB devices.
NOTE:
Do not connect multiple devices using a USB
hub. This can prevent connected devices from charging
or from being recognized by the Media Player.
NOTE: Power is available whenever the vehicle is
considered "awake" The vehicle may be awake for many
reasons. For example, when using features such as
Summon, or when features such as Preconditioning,
Cabin Overheat Protection, Keep Climate On, Dog Mode,
Camp Mode,
Sentry Mode, etc. are enabled. The vehicle
is also awake whenever the low voltage battery is being
charged or is in use, during HV charging, when the
vehicle is communicating with the mobile app, etc.
Leaving an accessory plugged in does not deplete the
low voltage battery.
