ECO mode TESLA MODEL X 2017 Owner's Manual 

Keyless Locking and UnlockingLocking and unlocking Model X is convenient.
Although you must be carrying a valid key,
there is no need to use it. Model X has sensors
that can recognize the presence of a key
within a range of approximately three feet
(one meter). So you can keep your key in your
pocket or purse and Model X detects it.
If equipped with this convenience option, when you walk up to Model X carrying your
key, doors automatically unlock and pressing
the driver

Note: If Model X is locked, pulling the switch(illustrated above) the first time unlocks the
associated door. Pulling it a second time
opens it.
To close a falcon wing door, press the button located on the inside of the door. You can also
use the key (see Using the Key on page 4,
push the switch on the door pillar (illustrated
above), or touch the door controls on the touchscreen (Controls > Doors):
Note: To prevent children from opening falcon
wing doors using the interior switch, turn on
child-protection locks using the touchscreen (Controls > Settings > Vehicle > Child
Protection Lock). See Child-protection Lock
on page 9.
Note: If a falcon wing door detects an obstacle
while closing, it reverses a few inches before it
stops moving.
Warning: Whenever a front door is
partially open (approximately 20

Adjusting Second Row MonopostSeats
A Model X equipped with monopost seating
can accommodate either two or three
passengers in the second row, depending on
the option chosen at time of purchase. There
are two ways to adjust the position of these
seats:

Accessing Third Row SeatsModel X makes it easy for passengers to enterand exit the third row seating positions (if
equipped). Press the Easy Entry button located on the backrest of each second row
outside seat. The associated outside seat

Guidelines for Seating Children
Your Model X seat belts in all passenger seating positions are designed for adults and larger
children. You must restrain infants and small children in the second and rear row seats only, and you must use a suitable child safety seat appropriate for the child

Once installed, test the security of theinstallation before seating a child. Attempt to twist the child safety seat from side to side
and try to pull it away from the seat, then
check that the anchors are still securely in
place.
Attaching Upper Tether Straps
If an upper tether strap is provided, attach its
hook to the anchor point located on the back
of the second and third row seats.
For dual-strap tethers, position a strap on each side of the head restraint.
The method you use to run a single-strap
tether over a second row seat depends on
whether Model X is equipped with monopost
or bench seats:

Testing a Child Safety Seat
Before seating a child, always make sure the
child safety seat is not loose:
1. Hold the child safety seat by the belt path and try to slide the safety seat from side
to side and front to back.
2. If the seat moves more than one inch (2.5 cm), it is too loose. Tighten the belt or
reconnect the LATCH retained child safety
seat.
3. If you are unable to reduce slack, try a
different seat location or try another child
safety seat.
Warnings - Child Safety Seats
Warning: Extreme hazard! Do not seat a
child on the front passenger seat even if
you are using a child safety seat. This seat
has an airbag in front of it. Although this airbag is disabled when Model X detects
a lightweight passenger, do not rely on technology to protect your child.Warning: Child restraint systems are
designed to be secured in vehicle seats
by lap belts or the lap belt portion of a lap-shoulder belt. Children could be
endangered in a crash if their child restraints are not properly secured in the
vehicleWarning: According to accident statistics,
children are safer when properly
restrained in the rear seating positions
than in the front seating positions.Warning: Do not use a forward facing child safety seat until your child weighs
over 20 lbs (9 kg) and can sit
independently. Up to the age of two, a
child

Passenger Front Airbag
Model X has an occupancy sensor in the front
passenger seat that controls the status of the
airbags based on the weight of the occupant. If the passenger airbag is OFF, it will not
inflate when a collision occurs, and PASS
AIRBAG OFF displays in the top right corner of the touchscreen. If the passenger airbag is
ON, it will
inflate when a collision occurs, but
its status does not display in the top right
corner of the touchscreen.
Note: The occupancy sensor system meets the regulatory requirement of FMVSS 208 and
automatically detects when
inflating the
passenger front airbags would be unnecessary
or potentially harmful.

can cause the status to occasionally turn on

physique.
**The absence of the status, PASS AIRBAG
OFF, in the top right corner of the
touchscreen indicates that the passenger
airbag is ON and will
inflate in the event of a
collision.
Note: It takes approximately six seconds after
you power on Model X for the occupancy
sensor to report accurate status of the front
passenger airbag. As a result, when you
firstpower on Model X, even in situations when it
should be OFF because the passenger seat is
either empty or carrying a weight of 20 lbs (9
kg) or less, the touchscreen will take about six
seconds to display the status, PASS AIRBAG
OFF. If it fails to do so, contact Tesla service
immediately and seat passengers in the rear
seating positions only.
If the passenger airbag is permanently on,
even when the seat is empty and the seat belt is unbuckled, contact Tesla immediately.
To make sure the sensing system can correctly detect occupancy status, eliminate the
following:

1. Touch to control front driver side map light.
2. If you touch DOME, a popup appears that allow you to control cabin lights. If cabin lights are set to ON, all interior cabin lights, including the light in the rear trunk, turn on when youunlock Model X, open a door upon exiting, or shift into P (Park). They turn
off after 60
seconds, when you lock Model X, or when you shift into a driving gear. If set to AUTO, cabin lights turn on only when little or no light is detected.
You can also turn on an individual dome light by touching its lens. If you manually turn a domelight on, it turns
off when Model X powers off. If Model X was already powered off when you
manually turned the light on, it turns off after 60 minutes.
3. If you turn on AMBIENT lights, the lights on the door arm rests turn on whenever the headlights are on.
4. Touch to control front passenger side map light.
5. Touch to turn the fog lights on or
off. Fog lights operate only when low beam headlights are
on. When headlights are turned off, fog lights also turn off.
The Rear Fog indicator displays on the instrument panel whenever rear fog
lights are on.The Front Fog indicator displays on the instrument panel whenever the
optional front fog lights are on.
6. Exterior lights (headlights, tail lights, side marker lights, parking lights, and license plate lights) are set to AUTO each time you start Model X.
AUTOExterior lights automatically turn on when driving in low lighting conditions.
If you change to a different setting, lights always revert to this AUTO setting
on your next drive.
Touch one of these options to temporarily change the exterior light setting:
OFFExterior lights turn off until you manually turn them back on or until the next
time you drive Model X. If daytime running lights are required in your region,
the exterior lights used for this purpose do not turn
off.Only the side marker lights, parking lights, tail lights and license plate lights
turn on.Exterior lights turn on.
Note: Model X has a series of lights along the lower rim of the headlights, also referred to as
"signature" lights. These lights automatically turn on whenever Model X is powered on and a driving gear is engaged. In the U.S. only, these lights turn
off to conserve energy when you
turn the Range mode setting on (see Controls on page 106 or Driving Tips to Maximize Range
on page 64).

Supported Accessory CarriersTo support the installation of an accessory
carrier (such as a bicycle, ski, or snowboard
rack) on the rear of Model X, the accessory
hitch or optional towing package is required.
Do not attempt to install an accessory carrier
on a Model X that is not equipped with the
accessory hitch or towing package. Doing so
can cause damage.
Model X is designed to support an accessory carrier of up to 120 lbs (55 kg). When carrying
accessories on Model X, always check to ensure that the maximum weight is notexceeded. For example, this weight threshold
is
sufficient for carrying two bicycles weighing
approximately 40 lbs (18 kg) each, or four
bicycles weighing approximately 20 lbs (9 kg)
each, assuming the accessory carrier weighs
approximately 33 lbs (15 kg).
Warning: The accessory hitch is designed
to attach a 1.25“ hitch accessory only. Do
not use the accessory hitch for trailer
towing, transportation or vehicle recovery.
Model X is capable of towing ONLY IF
equipped with the towing package.
Although the accessory hitch and the
towing package are similar in appearance,
a Model X equipped with an accessory
hitch does not have the appropriate
hardware or software to ensure that
towing can be done safely.
Installing an Accessory Carrier
1. Carefully follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer of the accessory
carrier.
2. Connect the electrical connector (if equipped). When Model X detects the
electrical connector, Trailer Mode
automatically engages. To ensure
availability of Autopilot features, it is
recommended that you disable Trailer
Mode. To disable Trailer Mode, touch
Controls > Driving > Trailer Mode > OFF
on the touchscreen.
3. Check that the lights are functioning properly (if equipped).
Note: Using an accessory carrier is likely to
obscure the rear view camera
