Replacing the key battery

When the key battery is low, a message will be 

displayed on the instrument cluster. Change the 
battery as soon as possible.

To change the key battery:

1. Place the key, button side down on a soft 

surface.

2. Using a small flat bladed tool, carefully 

release the rear cover from the key.

3. Remove the rear cover.

4. Push the battery towards the center of the 

key to release it from the front retaining 
clips and then remove the battery.

5. Fit the new battery (type CR2032) with the 

‘+’ side facing upwards. Finger marks will 
reduce battery life. Avoid touching the flat 
surfaces of the battery, and wipe the battery 
clean before fitting.

6. Align the front edges of the two key halves, 

then press them together until they snap 
into place.

Used batteries contain harmful 

substances. Seek advice on disposal from 

Tesla or your local authority.

Obtaining additional or replacement keys

If you lose a key or require an additional one, 
contact Tesla. Model S can recognize three keys. 

When ordering a new key for Model S, take all 

available keys with you so the system can be 
reprogrammed.
