USING APPS
USING MEDIA PLAYER
To listen to the radio and play audio files from a connected device (see
page18), touch the Media icon.
If you exit Model S when playing Media Player, when you open any door
to re-enter, Media Player resumes playing where it left off. At first, the
volume is low. But when you get in and close the driver’s door, the volume
resumes to the previously set level. When you open the driver’s door to
exit, the volume is reduced again. When you leave Model S, Media Player
stops playing, and the touchscreen and instrument panel turn off.
MEDIA PLAYER CONTROLS
In addition to the touchscreen, you can control the Media player using the
left steering wheel controls:
• Scroll the wheel up or down to adjust volume.
• Press and release the scroll wheel to mute/unmute a radio station or
pause/play an audio file.
• Press the Previous and Next buttons to find radio stations. If an
audio file is playing, this plays the previous or next file in the
currently active folder, category, or playlist.
USING INTERNET RADIO
If your Model S is equipped with the Connectivity package, internet radio
services* (such as Slacker and TuneIn) have been set up for you and can
be selected using Media Player.
SETTING UP XM RADIO
XM radio is a subscription-based satellite radio service available to you if
your Model S is equipped with the Sound Studio package*. To subscribe
to XM radio, you need to provide the radio ID for your touchscreen. To
view the radio ID, select the XM radio source and tune it to channel 0. The
Radio ID displays on the screen.
