Repair rock chips, fractures or scratches. Refer to https://
www.tesla.com/support/body-shop-support for more
information on repair locations and available services.
CAUTION: Do not use cutting pastes, color restoration
compounds, or polishes containing harsh abrasives.
These can scour the surface and permanently damage
the paint.
CAUTION: Do not use chrome polish or other abrasive
cleaners.
Using a Car Cover
To preserve the cosmetic appearance of the body when
Model Y is not being used, use a genuine Tesla car cover. Car
covers can be purchased online from the Tesla Shop.
CAUTION: Use only a Tesla-approved car cover when
Model Y is plugged in. Using a non-Tesla car cover can
prevent the Battery from being adequately cooled
during charging.
Floor Mats
To extend the life of your carpet and make them easier to
clean, use genuine Tesla floor mats available online at http://
www.tesla.com. Maintain floor mats by regularly cleaning
them and checking that they are properly attached. Replace
floor mats if they become excessively worn.
WARNING:
To avoid potential interference with a foot
pedal, ensure that the driver’s floor mat is securely
fastened, and never place an additional floor mat on
top of it. Floor mats should always rest on top of the
vehicle carpeting surface and not on another floor mat
or other covering.
