Touch the temperature arrows on the bottom of the touchscreen to display a
popup for easy access to some of the
most common climate controls:

NOTE: For one-touch access to seat heaters and defrosters, you can add
these controls to My Apps. See
Customizing My Apps.
- Touch to access the main climate controls screen.
- Enable or disable heated or cooling seats.
- Enable or disable the front or rear windshield defrosters.
- Modify the cabin temperature by dragging along the slider. You can also
enable temperature splitting which
allows the driver and front passenger to customize their own climate
preferences. The front passenger can touch
the temperature icon on the bottom of the touchscreen or the main climate
controls screen to adjust. Touch Split

Adjusting the Front and Rear Vents
Model S has a unique horizontal face-level vent that spans the width of the
dashboard. It also has vents at the top
and bottom of the rear console.

Using the touchscreens, you can pinpoint exactly where you want to direct the
air flowing from this vent when heating or cooling the cabin. When the
face-level vent is on you can adjust the direction of the air flow from each
vent. To adjust the direction of the air flow, touch the radiating air waves
from the corresponding vent on the
touchscreen. The air flows in a single stream when centered or splits into
mirrored air streams when air is directed
outward or inward from the center of the vent.

NOTE: When you split a vent into two separate air flows, the air
flow in
each direction is not as strong as when all air
is flowing in a single direction.
NOTE: Outside air is drawn into Model S through the grill in front of the
windshield. Keep the grill clear of
obstructions, such as leaves and snow.
