Opening
To open the rear trunk, ensure Model Y is in Park, then do
one of the following:
•
Approach the trunk with your phone key in your front
pocket (see Hands-Free Trunk on page 29).
•
Touch the associated Open button on the touchscreen.
• Double-click the rear trunk button on the key fob.
• Touch the rear trunk button on the mobile app.
• Press the switch located under the liftgate's exterior
handle (a valid key must be detected).
CAUTION: Before opening the liftgate in an enclosed
area (such as a garage), ensure the opening height of
the liftgate is properly adjusted to avoid low-hanging
ceilings or objects (see Adjusting Liftgate Opening
Height on page 29).
Model Y must be unlocked or detect a key before you can
use the switch to open the
liftgate.
When a door or trunk is open, the touchscreen
displays the Door Open indicator light. The
image of your Model Y on the touchscreen
also displays the open trunk.
To stop a liftgate while it is moving, single-click the rear trunk
button on the key fob. Then, when you double-click the rear
trunk button, it moves again, but in the opposite direction
(provided it was not almost entirely open or closed when you
stopped it). For example, if you single-click to stop the
liftgate while opening, when you double-click, it closes.
NOTE: In emergency situations, you can override an open or
close command by grasping the liftgate to stop it in place.
CAUTION: Slamming or forcing closures (including the
doors, liftgate, or front trunk) can result in damage not
covered under warranty.
WARNING: Before opening or closing the liftgate,
check the surrounding area (for people and objects).
You must proactively monitor the liftgate to ensure that
it does not come into contact with a person or object.
Failure to do so may result in damage or injury.
A low voltage power outlet is located on the left side of the
rear trunk.
Hands-Free Trunk
You can open the trunk without pressing a button.
NOTE:
Requires an iOS or Android device with Ultra-
Wideband (UWB) support and Tesla mobile app 4.41.5 or
higher. Consult the specifications section of your iOS or
Android device manufacturer's website to check if the phone
has background UWB support.
Ensure your phone settings allow "Nearby Interactions" for
the Tesla mobile app. If your phone key is already paired,
open the Tesla mobile app and go to Phone Key > Upgrade.
1.
To enable, touch Controls > Locks > Hands-Free Trunk.
Select
Exclude Home to disable the automatic hands-free
trunk at your set home location (see
Home, Work, and
Favorite Destinations on page 146 to set your home
location).
2.
With your phone key in your front pocket, approach the
trunk and stand still. When your phone key has been
detected,
Model Y chimes and the trunk opens. To cancel
the request, step away from the vehicle.
CAUTION: Do not leave your phone inside the trunk as
it may open by itself. If you must leave your phone in
the vehicle, disable Bluetooth and/or turn the phone
off, and ensure you have alternate methods to lock/
unlock your vehicle, see Keys on page 21.
WARNING: Before allowing an automated feature to
open the trunk (rather than doing so manually), it is
important to check that the area around the trunk is
free of obstacles (such as people and objects).
Proactively monitor the trunk's movement to ensure
that it does not contact a person or object. Failure to
do so can result in damage or serious injury.
Adjusting Liftgate Opening Height
You can adjust the opening height of the liftgate to make it
easier to reach or to avoid low-hanging ceilings or objects
(for example, a garage door or light):
1.
Open the trunk, then manually lower or raise the liftgate to
the desired opening height.
