• Manage your account information and view your order
history.

Settings tab, such as Calendar sync, when your security
alarm has been triggered, charging updates, and new

check its progress.
Controls
The Controls tab allows you to do the following:
• Open the front or rear trunk.
•
Lock or unlock Model Y from afar.
NOTE: Your vehicle does not automatically re-lock if you
unlock from the mobile app.
•
Open or close the charge port.
•
Flash the lights or honk the horn to find where Model Y is
parked.
•
Enable Keyless Driving.
NOTE: Keyless Driving can be used when you do not have
your key or to bypass PIN to Drive in cases where you
forgot your PIN or your touchscreen is unresponsive (see
PIN to Drive on page 127).
• Open and close your garage door if your vehicle has a
programmed HomeLink connection, if available (see
Smart Garage on page 63).
• Vent the windows.
Climate
You can check the interior temperature and heat or cool the
cabin before driving (even if it’s in a garage), control the seat
heaters, and defrost the windshield:
• Enable or disable Defrost Car, which helps melt snow, ice,
and frost on the windshield, windows, and mirrors, by
swiping up from the bottom of the screen.
• Enable or disable Dog Mode or Camp Mode.
•
Enable Cabin Overheat Protection, which prevents the
cabin from getting too warm in hot ambient conditions.
You can choose whether you want the A/C or just the fan
to run when the temperature in the cabin exceeds 40° C
or the selected temperature (if available). See Operating
Climate Controls on page 133 for more information.
•
Vent or close the windows.
•
Precondition the cabin to your desired temperature and
turn on or off the steering wheel and seat heaters (if
equipped).
Using the mobile app to precondition Model Y also warms the
Battery as needed. The mobile app will notify you once your
vehicle has reached the desired preconditioning
temperature.
NOTE:
In some vehicles, depending on vehicle specifications
and date of manufacture, using the mobile app to defrost
Model Y also thaws ice on the charge port latch. This is
useful in extremely cold weather or icy conditions in which
the charge port latch can freeze in place, preventing you from
removing or inserting the charge cable.
Location
Locate Model Y with directions, or track its movement across
a map.
Summon
You can park or retrieve Model Y using Dumb Summon or
Actually Smart Summon (ASS) (see Summon on page 110).

the vehicle. See
Scheduled Precondition and Charge on page
165 for more information. Scheduled charging or departure
can also be saved based on a preferred location.
You can also schedule a light show for a future time. For more
information about light show, see Theater, Arcade, and
Toybox on page 152.
