Speed Limit Mode: Speed Limit Mode allows you to limit
acceleration and limit the maximum driving speed to a
chosen value between 50 and 90 mph (80 and 145
km/h). The first time you use this feature, you must
create a 4-digit PIN that you must use to enable and
disable Speed Limit Mode. When enabled and the
driving speed approaches within approximately
3 mph
(5 km/h) of the maximum speed, a chime sounds, the
instrument panel displays a message, and
Model S sends
a notification to the mobile app. To enable Speed Limit
Mode:
1.
Ensure Model S is in Park.
2. Touch Controls > Safety > Speed Limit Mode on the
touchscreen, or touch Controls in your mobile app.
3. Select the maximum driving speed.
4. Drag the slider to the On position.
5.
Enter the 4-digit PIN that you want to use to enable
and disable Speed Limit Mode.
NOTE: If you forget the PIN, you can disable Speed
Limit Mode by entering login credentials for your
Tesla account.
NOTE: While Speed Limit Mode is enabled, the
acceleration setting (Controls > Pedals & Steering >
Acceleration) automatically sets to Chill.
WARNING:
Driving downhill can increase driving
speed and cause Model S to exceed your chosen
maximum speed.
WARNING:
Speed Limit Mode is not a replacement
for good judgment, driver training, and the need to
closely monitor speed limits and driving
conditions. Accidents occur at any speed.
Sentry Mode: When enabled, cameras and sensors
remain powered on and ready to record suspicious
activity whenever Model S is locked and in Park. See
(Using Sentry Mode on page 151).
View Live Camera via Mobile App (if equipped): Enable
to see a live video feed of your vehicle’s surroundings
from the mobile app (see Using Sentry Mode on page
151).
Dashcam (if equipped): When enabled, cameras can
record and save video footage of the surrounding
roadway (see
Using Dashcam on page 151). Customize
Dashcam by selecting:
• Auto: Dashcam automatically saves a recording to
the USB flash drive (if available and installed) in
situations where
Model S detects a safety event, such
as a collision or airbag deployment.
• Manual: You must touch the Dashcam icon to save a
recording of the most recent 10 minutes of driving to
the USB
flash drive.
•
O: Dashcam is disabled until you select Auto or
Manual.
• On Honk
: When you press the horn, Dashcam saves a
recording of the most recent 10 minutes of driving to
the USB flash drive.
Delete Dashcam Clips: Deletes all Dashcam and Sentry
Mode footage, including recent and saved clips.
Format USB Drive (if equipped): If a USB flash drive is
inserted into a front USB port, touch to format the flash
drive to allow Model S to save video recordings using
Dashcam, Sentry Mode or Track Mode , if equipped (see
USB Drive Requirements for Recording Videos on page
22).
Park Assist Chimes: If on, a beep sounds when Model S
approaches an object while parking (see Park Assist on
page 68).
Joe Mode: If on, Joe Mode lowers the volume of your
vehicle's chimes, except for turn signals.
NOTE: Joe Mode may not be available at delivery.
Security Alarm (if equipped): Enable the security alarm
(see Security Settings on page 150).
Tilt/Intrusion: If your vehicle is equipped with the
security package, a battery-backed siren sounds in
situations where
Model S detects motion inside the
cabin, or is moved or tilted (for example, with a tow
truck or jack). See Tilt/Intrusion (if equipped) on page
150.
PIN to Drive: Increase security by preventing Model S
from being driven until a 4-digit PIN (Personal
Identification Number) is entered (see PIN to Drive on
page 150).
Glovebox PIN: For additional security, protect glovebox
contents using a 4-digit PIN (see Glovebox PIN on page
150).
Cabin Overheat Protection: Reduce the temperature of
the cabin in extremely hot ambient conditions for a
period of up to twelve hours after you exit Model S (see
Cabin Overheat Protection on page 130). Cabin
Overheat Protection stops operating after 12 hours, or
when the energy remaining in the Battery drops to 20%,
whichever occurs first.
Active Road Noise Reduction: Specify if and how you
want Active Road Noise Reduction to operate (see
Active Road Noise Reduction on page 24).
Service
Owner's Manual: View the onscreen Owner's Manual. A
new version of the onscreen owner's manual is typically
provided with every software update and therefore
contains more recent information that those provided by
Tesla elsewhere (for example, via the web).
