To open the rear trunk, ensure Model Y is in Park, then do one of the following:

• Touch the associated Open button on the touchscreen.
• Double-click the rear trunk button on the key fob.
• Touch the rear trunk button on the mobile app.
• Press the switch located under the liftgate's exterior handle (a valid key must be detected).

Model Y must be unlocked or detect a key before you can use the switch to open the liftgate.

When a door or trunk is open, the touchscreen displays the Door Open indicator light. The image of your Model Y on the touchscreen also displays the open trunk.

To stop a liftgate while it is moving, single-click the rear trunk button on the key fob. Then, when you double-click the rear trunk button, it moves again, but in the opposite direction (provided it was not almost entirely open or closed when you stopped it). For example, if you single-click to stop the liftgate while opening, when you double-click, it closes.

A low voltage power socket is located on the left side of the rear trunk.

To close the liftgate, do one of the following:

• Touch the associated Close button on the touchscreen.
• Double-click the rear trunk button on the key fob.
• Press the switch located on the underside of the liftgate (see Adjusting Liftgate Opening Height).

If the liftgate senses an obstruction when closing, it stops moving and chimes two times. Remove the obstruction and try closing it again.

You can adjust the opening height of the liftgate to make it easier to reach or to avoid low-hanging ceilings or objects (for example, a garage door or light):

1. Open the trunk, then manually lower or raise the liftgate to the desired opening height.
2. Press and hold the button on the underside of the liftgate for three seconds until you hear a confirmation chime.

   

3. Confirm that you have set it to the desired height by closing the liftgate, then reopening it.

To access the cargo area inside the rear trunk, pull up the strap at the rear of the cargo cover. You can then fold the cargo cover forward or remove it from Model Y.

Secure all cargo before moving Model Y, and place heavy cargo in the lower trunk compartment.

Distribute cargo weight between the front and rear trunks.
