Tesla Model Y: Volume Controls
Roll the scroll button on the left side of the steering wheel up or down to increase or decrease volume respectively. The scroll button adjusts the volume for media, voice commands, and phone calls.
NOTE: Your Model Y automatically adjusts the volume based on driving speed and climate settings.
You can also adjust the volume by touching the arrows associated with the speaker icon on the bottom corner of the touchscreen.
To mute the volume, press the left scroll button. Press again to unmute.
NOTE: Pressing the left scroll button during a phone call mutes both the sound and your microphone.
NOTE: If you're playing media and you receive a phone call, or the navigation system is speaking directions, the volume of what you are listening to is temporarily muted.
