Using Voice Commands
You can use voice commands to call a
contact, navigate to a location, listen to
Internet music or control many aspects of
your Model S. Voice commands are designed
to understand natural requests. Tap the voice
button on the upper right side of the steering
wheel to initiate a voice command. When you
hear the tone, speak your command. As you
speak, the instrument panel displays an
interpretation of your command. It also
displays tips to remind you of the type of
commands you can speak. When you finish
speaking the command, tap the voice button
again or simply wait.
NOTE:
Voice commands may be spoken in
English, French, German, Italian, Dutch,
Spanish, Norwegian, Danish, or Swedish.
• To call a contact on your Bluetooth-
connected phone, say “Call” or “Dial”,
followed by the contact’s first and/or last
name(s). For example, “Call Joe” or “Call
Joe Smith”.
• To search for, or navigate to, a location,
say “Where is”, “Drive to”, or “Navigate
to”, followed by an address, business
name, business category, or landmark. For
example, “Where is Stanford University?”,
“Drive to Tesla in Palo Alto”, or “Navigate
to Starbucks on Homestead in Cupertino”.
If you have defined a navigation address
for your home or work locations, you can
use a voice command to navigate there
by saying "Navigate home" or "Navigate
to work".
• To listen to an Internet music service, say
“Listen to” or “Play”, followed by the
name of the song, album, artist, or
combination. To improve voice
recognition accuracy, provide multiple
cues in your command, such as artist plus
song (for example, “Listen to Yellow Brick
Road” or “Play Yellow Brick Road by Elton
John”).
• Control various aspects of Model S by
speaking statements or commands. For
example, "Speed up the wipers", "The
screen is too bright", "Turn on the driver's
seat heater", "I'm cold".

NOTE:
Tesla is continuously improving the
ability of Model S to recognize voice
commands. To support these ongoing quality
improvements, Tesla captures short voice
recordings anonymously. To protect your
privacy, these short recordings are not
associated with your personal information or
with your vehicle's identification number.
Tesla assures that it is not possible to search
any system for a recording associated with a
specific customer or vehicle.
