When you first adjust the driver’s seat, steering wheel
position, or exterior side mirrors, the touchscreen prompts
you to create a driver profile to save these adjustments. Your
profile also saves various preferences you make while
customizing Model Y.
To save your profile settings to the cloud and access them
across multiple Tesla vehicles, set up a Tesla Profile (see
Using Tesla Profiles on page 89).
To add a new driver profile, touch the driver
profile icon
at the top of the touchscreen.
Then touch Driver Profile Settings > Add New
Driver, type the driver's name and touch
Create Profile. Follow the onscreen
instructions to save mirror and steering wheel
position to the driver profile.
Check the Use Easy Entry checkbox if you want to save (or
use existing) Easy Entry settings in which the driver's seat
and the steering wheel are automatically adjusted to make it
easy to enter and exit
Model Y.
If you change the position of the driver’s seat, steering
wheel, or exterior side mirrors after you have saved or chosen
a driver profile, the touchscreen prompts you to
Save the new
position or Restore the previously saved position (other
settings are automatically saved). To change a setting
without saving or restoring, just ignore the prompt.
To delete a driver profile, touch the driver profile icon at the
top of the touchscreen, touch Driver Profile Settings and
select the driver profile you want to remove. Once selected,
Delete the driver profile.
NOTE: Valet mode is a built-in driver profile that limits speed
and restricts access to some Model Y features (see Valet
Mode on page 90).
NOTE: To stop automatic adjustments that are in process
based on a driver's profile, touch Stop on the Driver Profile
dropdown menu. Automatic adjustments also stop if you
manually adjust a seat, mirror, or the steering wheel.
Selecting Between Driver Profiles
To adjust Model Y based on a driver’s profile,
touch the driver profile icon at the top of the
Controls screen. Then choose the driver, and
Model Y is adjusted based on the settings that
have been saved to the chosen driver profile.
See Using Tesla Profiles on page 89 to learn
more about saving profile settings to the cloud
for easy access across multiple Tesla vehicles.
NOTE: Your preferred Stopping Mode setting does not sync
to your driver profile. For more information, see
Braking and
Stopping on page 81.
Using Tesla Profiles
(If equipped) Driver profile settings, such as seat
adjustments, temperature preferences, navigation Recents
and Favorites, media settings, and data sharing preferences
can be saved into a Tesla Profile that is synced to every
supported vehicle under your Tesla Account. This provides
convenient access to your profile settings and preferences
across all your Tesla supported vehicles.
To set up your Tesla Profile, navigate to Driver Profile Settings
and select your Tesla Account name. You can choose to set it
up as a New Profile or copy the settings from an existing
driver profile that you were previously using.
To set up a Tesla Profile for additional drivers, share your
vehicle with them from the mobile app and navigate to
Security & Drivers > Manage Drivers > Add Driver. Their Tesla
Profile will appear in the Driver Profile settings after
accepting the invitation from their Tesla Account. If you
remove their access to the vehicle, it also removes their Tesla
Profile. For more information on granting mobile app access,
see
Granting Access to a Second Driver on page 57. In
addition, you can change your profile picture from your Tesla
Mobile App.
NOTE: Some vehicle settings are synced only between similar
vehicle models. If the seat, steering, and mirror positions do
not restore as expected, touch Controls > Service > Driver
Seat, Steering, & Mirrors Calibration on the affected vehicles.
If the setting for Autopilot Activation does not restore as
expected, touch Controls > Autopilot > Autopilot Activation
(see Autopilot Settings on page 102).
NOTE: Tesla Profiles are supported on vehicles with software
versions 2022.24 or higher.
To remove your Tesla Profile from a vehicle, remove that
vehicle from your Tesla account:
1. In the Tesla mobile app, touch the profile icon in the top-
right corner.
2. Touch Add/Remove Products.
3. Touch Remove.
4.
Select the vehicle you'd like to remove.
Saved Settings
A subset of the settings that you choose to customize your
Model Y are automatically saved to your driver's profile.
Once saved, a green check mark appears next to the driver
profile icon on the touchscreen. Examples of automatically
saved driver profile settings are:
•
Navigation, temperature, lights and display settings.
•
Autopilot and driving preferences.
