What would happen if I connect another car to the 12V battery posts and try to jump start the ICE car? Is this OK to do?
Your suggestion is my initial thought as well. However, I wonder if you could overload the 12V circuit by doing so.No. The ModelS 12V battery is far too small to crank an ICE. At best it just won't work; quite possibly you'll damage something.
In theory, you could use the ModelS to attempt to charge the ICE's battery - connect for a while with the ModelS powered up, then disconnect before cranking - though I am not sure I recommend this either.
You can try one of those cigarette lighter to cigarette lighter type things. They are quite slow. Not certain it will work and the impact on the battery pack and/or 12V battery.
The Model S has a cigarette lighter?
In the strange world that we live in, someone is yet to come up with a different plug standard for 12V DC.
Why? Just to be different? Would you like a CHAdeMO or SAE 12V alternative instead? Do we really want an artificial standard just because something has the word "cigarette" in the name sometimes used?No, but it has a cigarette lighter power outlet.

Manual doesn't even have the procedure for "jump starting" the Model S itself
Hey, what a good idea! The 12v cigarette plug is a horrible plug. I wonder is anyone is working on a new car standard plug?
