2015 Tesla Model S Owners Manual

Climate Controls
Customizing Climate Control
The climate control system is designed to automatically provide optimum comfort in most
situations. All you need to do is set the desired temperature, and the air conditioning, air
recirculation, air distribution, and fan speed automatically maintain your selected temperature.
To override the automatic setting, touch AUTO ON to view the individual settings. Then touch the
setting you want to change. When you change a setting, the AUTO ON icon turns from blue to
gray and RESET AUTO displays instead.
Outside air is drawn into
Model S (see Ventilation on
page 82). Although less
efficient than recirculating the
air in very hot or low climate
conditions, this setting draws
more air into the rear seating
areas, and is recommended
when occupants are seated in
the Tesla built-in rear facing
child seats.
Air inside Model S is
recirculated. This prevents
outside air (traffic fumes) from
entering but reduces
dehumidifying and cooling
performance. Recirculating the
air is the most efficient way to
cool the front cabin area but it
is also the loudest. To prevent
the windshield from fogging in
some conditions, briefly change
the setting every hour to draw
in outside air.

Choose where air flows into the cabin.
You can choose more than one location:
1.
Touch RESET AUTO to change all settings
back to the their default values.
Touch A/C ON or A/C OFF to turn the air
conditioning on and off, respectively.
Turning it off reduces cooling, but saves
energy.

Because Model S runs much quieter than a
gasoline-powered vehicle, you may notice
the sound of the compressor as it is
operating. To minimize noise, reduce the
fan speed or recirculate the air.

Drag the slider to set the speed of the fan.
