To manually put a Tesla in neutral, you can follow these steps:
1. First, ensure that your vehicle is parked and the parking brake is engaged. This is important to ensure safety before attempting to shift gears.
2. If your Tesla is in the Park mode, you can shift into Neutral by briefly pushing the drive stalk either up or down to the first position. This action will disengage the Park mode and shift the car into Neutral.
3. If your Tesla is in the Drive mode, you can shift into Neutral by briefly pushing the drive stalk up to the first position. This will take you out of Drive and put the car into Neutral.
4. Similarly, if your Tesla is in Reverse, you can shift into Neutral by briefly pushing the drive stalk down to the first position. This action will disengage Reverse and put the car into Neutral gear.
It’s important to note that the process may vary slightly depending on the specific model of your Tesla, so it’s always a good idea to consult your vehicle’s manual for accurate instructions. Additionally, keep in mind that shifting into Neutral should only be done when necessary, as it can affect the control and stability of the vehicle.
