Auto-Fold Mirrors Based on Location
Model Y can automatically fold and unfold the
side mirrors based on location, which saves
you from having to manually position them
each time you need to fold or unfold the
mirrors when at a frequented place (such as
narrow garages, tight parking spaces, etc.).
To set up, Model Y must be driving at a low
speed (less than 3 mph (5 km/h)) or stopped
at the location you want your vehicle to
remember. Go to Controls > Quick Controls >
Mirrors > Always Fold Mirrors at this Location.
Next time you approach the saved location,
your mirrors fold and unfold within 25 feet (7.5
meters) of the specified location.
You can also integrate auto-folding mirrors
with HomeLink (see HomeLink Universal
Transceiver on page 146). To enable, go to
HomeLink > Auto-Fold Mirrors when Nearby.
Caution: Mirrors may not automatically
fold or unfold if you return to a saved
location and are driving faster than 3 mph
(5 km/h).
Mirror Auto Tilt
Both exterior mirrors can automatically tilt
downward when Model Y is shifted into
Reverse. When you shift back into Drive, the
mirrors return to their normal (upward)
position.
To turn this feature on or o, touch Controls >
Quick Controls > Mirrors > Mirror Auto Tilt.
Mirror Auto Fold
Both exterior mirrors can automatically fold
inward whenever you exit and lock Model Y.
When you unlock Model Y, the exterior mirrors
then automatically unfold.
To turn this feature on or o, touch Controls >
Quick Controls > Mirrors > Mirror Auto Fold.
Rear View Mirror
The rear view mirror is adjusted manually.
When in the Drive or Neutral gear, the rear
view mirror automatically dims in low lighting
conditions (for example, when driving at night
or through a tunnel).
Vanity Mirrors
To expose and illuminate the vanity mirror,
fold the sun visor downwards, then use the
tab to lower the mirror cover. When you close
