Do not under any circumstance, remove the glovebox PIN or PIN to drive settings. Please, if you're going to move anything in the car, like the amenities in the trunk or frunk, put them back in the same spot where you found them, or inform me over Turo messaging if you moved them. Be sure to request the car seat, if you need it. It's available, but I don't leave it in the car permanently. It has to be requested, so that I mount it in the back seat. Be sure to lock the car when you leave. The car only autolocks when walking away if you have phone key. As a renter, you only have the physical key and therefore, you have to manually lock the car yourself, same way you unlock it. Check the FAQ in the listing page for directions on locking and unlocking. If there were any tolls and Tesla supercharging incurred, the reimbursement requests would be sent out after the trip is over. The invoices for the individual supercharging sessions are sent out by me manually after the session is over though, so you can check to see how much you'll owe in reimbursement during the trip. The invoice will be in the trip photos. If you haven't plugged in a supercharger correctly, the indicator at the charge port will turn yellow. It won't charge as quickly in that instance, so be sure to remove the charger and plug it back in so the indicator turns blue and then green. When it's not plugged in properly, I usually get a notification on my phone in the Tesla app so I might remind you in messages to reseat the charger. Tesla Supercharging has idle fees that kick in when the charger has hit the charging limit, which is by default 100% on my car, but the charging station can bump it down temporarily to 80% for that session if it's a busy charging station. So when you put it to charge, be aware of that, and unplug at the time when the station says it will be done so that you don't get an idle fee.

• How do I unlock and open the car?

  If you're doing a Turo Go rental, you can unlock the car with your Turo app, and the card key will be in the glovebox and you use that to start the car. If it's a normal rental, I will give you the card key and you hold the key card up to the driver side door pillar below the camera. The side mirrors will open out and that's how you know the car unlocked. Once the car is unlocked, press the end part of the door handle in with your thumb and that will open out the handle and you open the car that way Tesla's youtube video explains: https://youtu.be/Rpzqh4CHfac?t=16 My husband's video explains: https://youtu.be/hrYZW8I76WA?t=14

• How do you charge the car with the non-Tesla chargers?

  The non-Tesla chargers show up in the GPS Map / Satnav as the gray chargers in the list when pulling up the list of nearby chargers. There are two levels for public charging, and they mostly align to the charging companies. There is the L2 charging companies, are usually Blink, Chargepoint, Volta, Semaconnect, Shell Recharge, EVGo and Electrify America. EVGo and Electrify America are primarily for L3 fast charging, but some of their stations have an L2 station. L2 charging charges at 30 miles of battery power per hour, and they use the J-1772 aka J-plug charge plug. On the Tesla Map, those are the ones that show up filtered under the one lightning bolt. The car includes a J-1772 adapter, that is in the glovebox. L2 charging will fill a car up from empty in 8-10 hours. The L3 charging companies, are usually EVGo, and Electrify America, and the Tesla superchargers. L3 charging is very fast at 70-100 miles of battery power per hour, and are comparable to the Tesla superchargers. The non-Tesla companies use the CCS or Chademo charge plugs. On the Tesla Map, those are the ones that show up filtered under the 2 lightning bolts. The car has a CCS adapter that is in the trunk. L3 charging will fill a car up from empty in 1-3 hours. The charging steps depend on the company, but is very similar. It basically amounts to 1. Search for and install the app for the company's charging service 2. Setup an account in the app 3. Add a payment method 4. Locate the charger in the app if you're already there 5. Follow instructions in the app to unlock and use the charger The only exception to this is L2 Volta chargers. Those chargers are free and paid for with ads, so you just walk up and plug it in. They are limited to 2 hours however. Here are the links to download the apps for all the charging station companies • Chargepoint - https://www.chargepoint.com/drivers/mobile/ • Blink - https://www.blinknetwork.com/mobile.html • Semaconnect - https://www.semaconnect.com/blog/download-our-app/ • EVgo - https://www.evgo.com/download-app/ • Electrify America - https://www.electrifyamerica.com/mobile-app • Shell Recharge - https://shellrecharge.com/en-gb/public-charging/shell-recharge-app • Volta - Volta charging stations actually operates on advertising and are free, so you don't need to install the app to use it.

• What are the different ways to charge the car?

  There are three ways to charge the car. * A Tesla Supercharger * A non-tesla public charging station * At the home/Airbnb where you are staying Each method of charging has different ways to do it and work in different situations. Generally the easiest will be the Tesla Supercharger. There are many of them around, and doesn't need additional setup from your end. When using it, I will be charged and will have to be reimbursed. I send the reimbursement request for the charging after the trip has ended. The non-tesla charging stations are also good in terms of the charging speed, if they are Electrify America or EVgo chargers (100 miles per hour). If they are from the other companies, like Blink or Chargepoint, they are slower and comparable to home charging (30miles of charger per hour). It does require more setup though. The app for the charging company would have to be installed and setup, in order to start the charging. For the at home or at Airbnb charging, if charging with a 220V plug like what a washing machine uses, it charges at 30 miles per hours. If charging from a normal 110V wall outlet, it charges at 10 miles per hour. The car comes with a charging cable in the trunk, that can be used with either a 220V or 110V plug. Youtube Short that explains the different kinds of charge ports. My Tesla comes with adapters so it can work with J-Plug (J-1772) or CCS chargers as well. J-Plug adapter is in the glovebox, and CCS adapter is in the trunk: https://youtube.com/shorts/-EktsvIilps?feature=share My husband's video explains charging levels: https://youtu.be/hrYZW8I76WA?t=698 If you want a cheaper car and don't think you'll need fast charging, you can also rent my Chevy Bolt https://turo.com/us/en/car-rental/united-states/seattle-wa/chevrolet/bolt-ev/460473

• How do you charge the car at someone's house or AirBnB?

  You can charge at the slower L1 and L2 levels of charge at someone's house. Depends on which wall plug you have access to. Both levels use the J-1772 aka J-Plug to plug into the car. L1 charging is the charging you'd get if you used a charging cable that plugged into a normal 110V wall outlet that other household appliances use. It only charges at about 10 miles of battery charge per hour. At that rate, It would take about 27 hours to charge the car to full from empty. It's useful for trickle charge to just top up some extra miles when the car is parked overnight. Very slow, but can only help if it's available. L2 charging is the charging you'd get if you used a charging cable that plugged into a 220V wall outlet that heavy appliances like washing machines use. It is the same charging rate as the public L2 charging stations mentioned earlier, and what all home setups use for charging. It adds 30 miles of battery charge per hour. That usually takes 8-10 hours to fill up the car from empty. The car includes Tesla's mobile connector dual mode charging cable that can do both. It has dongles for the 110V and the 220V plugs, and you just plug in the right one, then plug the cable into the 110 or 220V wall outlet and the other end with the charge plug into the car. So basically ask if the Airbnb has a charger, and ask whether it plugs into a wall outlet or a 220V plug, then you will know how fast it will charge. If they don't have one, ask if they have an outdoor wall plug that is close to the car parking spot that you can use to charge, and use the mobile connector charging plug in the trunk to charge the car.

• How do I make a turn signal?

  Turn signal is mostly the same as other cars. It's the steering wheel left handle. The only difference is that it also has two levels. When turning it all the way, to the full two levels, in a direction it turns on the turn signal fully. When you turn it half way in a direction, to one level, it turns on the turn signal briefly for only 3 clicks of the turn signal. If the turn signal is on in one direction, turn it back in the other direction to that half level to turn it back off.
