Smart Air Suspension
Automatic Lowering) until you are driving
faster than the auto-raising speed
thresholds described above.
If Model S reaches a saved location and
the existing suspension setting is higher
than the level that has been saved for that
location, the suspension is not adjusted.
You can set the speed at which the Air
Suspension automatically transitions to the
LOW ride height by touching Controls >
Settings > Vehicle > Automatic Lowering on
the touchscreen. This setting is saved to your
Driver Profile.
•
Note: You can temporarily override the ride
height by pressing the brake pedal, touching
an air suspension control in Controls > Driving,
and then manually choosing a ride height.
Your suspension's automatic lowering setting
is restored the next time you drive.
To remove an auto-raising location
If you do not want the suspension to auto-
raise at a saved location, touch the X in the
touchscreen message that displays at a saved
location. Doing so removes the auto-raise
location and the suspension will not
automatically rise when you arrive at the
destination in the future.
If a fault is detected with the air
suspension system, a yellow
indicator lights up on the instrument
panel. If the problem persists,
contact Tesla.
Jack Mode
Before jacking or lifting, set the suspension to
Jack mode to prevent the self-leveling that
occurs even when Model S is powered off.
Press the brake pedal, then touch Controls >
Driving > Jack.
When Model S is in Jack mode, a red
air suspension indicator lights up on
the instrument panel.
To deactivate, touch Jack again.
Note: Jack mode automatically cancels when
you drive over 4.5 mph (7 km/h).
Note: Manually lowering the suspension to
Standard or Low while at a saved location also
removes the auto-raising location.
Automatic Lowering
When Model S is moving above typical
driveway or parking lot speeds, Smart Air
Suspension automatically lowers ride height
to improve aerodynamics and handling. For
most average speed driving, the suspension is
automatically set to Standard. As described
above, when you make manual height
adjustments, the suspension automatically
lowers at increased driving speeds.
When carrying loads, Smart Air Suspension
also maintains a level height between the
front and rear.
