Opening
To open the rear trunk, ensure Model Y is in Park, then
do one of the following:
•
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).
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.
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 socket is located on the left side of
the rear trunk.
Closing
To close the liftgate, do one of the following:
•
Touch the associated Close button on the
touchscreen.
•
Double-click the rear trunk button on the key fob.
•
Press the switch located on the underside of the
liftgate (see Adjusting Liftgate Opening Height on
page 14).
If the liftgate senses an obstruction when closing, it
stops moving and chimes two times. Remove the
obstruction and try closing it again.
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.
2. Press and hold the button on the underside of the
liftgate for three seconds until you hear a
confirmation chime.
