Raising Rear Seats
Before raising a rear seat, make sure that the
seat belts are not trapped behind the
backrest.
Pull the seat back upward until it locks into
place.
To confirm that the seat back is locked in the
upright position, try pulling it forward.
Warning: Always ensure the seat backs
are locked in their upright position.
Failure to do so increases the risk of
injury.
Head Supports/Restraints
If your Model S is equipped with adjustable
head supports, use the round button on the
seat to move the headrest up/down. The same
button is used to adjust the seat's lumbar
support (see Adjusting the Driver’s Seat on
page 17). Therefore, when you touch this
button, the touchscreen displays a popup with
an image of the seat. If the head support
shown on the image is not highlighted in blue,
touch this area on the image to specify that
you want to adjust the head support. The
selection you choose is retained until you
manually change it. You can save the head
support setting to your driver profile (see
Driver Profiles on page 39).
Note: On earlier Model S vehicles, the head
restraint does not adjust.
The second row seats have integrated non-
removable head supports that can not be
adjusted.
Seat Heaters
The front seats are equipped with heating
pads that operate at three levels from 3
(highest) to 1 (lowest). To operate the seat
heaters, see
Climate Controls on page 111.
If Model S is equipped with the optional cold
weather package, you can also control seat
heaters in all rear seating positions, as well as
heated wipers and washer nozzles by
touching
Controls > Cold Weather (see
Controls on page 104).
Warning: To avoid burns resulting from
prolonged use, individuals who have
peripheral neuropathy, or whose capacity
to feel pain is limited because of diabetes,
age, neurological injury, or some other
condition, should exercise caution when
using the climate control system and seat
heaters.
