Exterior Overview
Overview3

Touch the range assurance icon, located in the
top right corner of the map/navigation
window, to control what charging stations
display on the map:The map displays superchargers
only.The map displays all visited
chargers, Chademo chargers, and
destination chargers. In situations
where a charging location may not
be reachable based on your
currently available driving range, its
associated icon on othe map
displays as semi-transparent.
When you are at risk of driving beyond the
range of known charging locations, a popup
message displays on the touchscreen giving
you the opportunity to display a list of
charging locations that are within range. When
you select a charging location from the list,
Model X provides navigation instructions and the turn-by-turn direction list displays the
predicted amount of energy that will remain
when you arrive at the charging destination.
In addition to the popup message that
displays when you are at risk of driving
beyond the range of known charging
locations, a warning symbol displays on the
range assurance icon:
Touch to display a search list of
charging locations that are
estimated to be within your driving
range. Then touch a location in the
search list to navigate to it.Based on the amount of energy
remaining in your Model X, there
are no known charging locations
within your driving range.

Charging LocationsSuperchargers are displayed on the map by
default, represented by red pins that you can
use to display more information about the Supercharger, navigate to it, or mark it as a
favorite. In addition to Superchargers you can
display all types of charging stations by
touching the charging icon in the lower right
corner of the map.
Charging locations are represented on the map as follows:The Supercharger location is
operational.The Supercharger location may be
out of operation or is operating at
a reduced capacity (touch the pin
to display details).The location is equipped with a
charging station (High Power Wall
Connector). Touch to display more
information, such as the charging
station

Charging Equipment
Charging equipment designed
specifically to
charge your Model X is available from Tesla. A
Tesla Wall Connector, which installs in your
garage, is the fastest way to charge Model X
at home.
In several market regions, Model X is equipped
with a Mobile Connector and the adapter(s)
you need to plug into commonly used power
outlets. When using the Mobile Connector,
first plug the Mobile Connector into the power
outlet, then plug in Model X. For more
information about your Mobile Connector, see
the Mobile Connector Owner

If you are using the Mobile Connector, plug it into the power outlet before plugging it into
Model X.
Align the connector to the charge port and insert fully. When the connector is properly inserted,
charging begins automatically after Model X:

During ChargingDuring charging, the charge port pulses green and charging status displays on the instrument
panel. The frequency at which the charge port

Changing Charge SettingsThe charge settings screen displays on the touchscreen whenever the charge port door is open.
To display charge settings at any time, touch the Battery icon on the top of the touchscreen, or touch Controls > Charging (located in the upper right portion of the Controls screen).
Note: The following illustration is provided for demonstration purposes only and may vary slightly
depending on the software version and market region of your Model X.
1. Charge status messages (such as Charging Scheduled, Charging In Progress) display here.
2. To adjust the charge limit, touch Set Charge Limit, then touch the arrows to move the charge limit setting in 10% increments for daily driving, and 2% increments for trips. The setting youchoose applies to both immediate and scheduled charging sessions.
3.
Location-specific schedule. With Model X in Park, set a specific time when you want Model X
to begin charging at the current location. If, at the scheduled time, Model X is not plugged in
at the location, it will start charging as soon as you plug it in as long as you are plugging it in
within six hours of the scheduled time. If you plug in after six hours, Model X does not start charging until the scheduled time on the next day. To override this setting, touch Start
Charging or Stop Charging (see item 4). When you set a scheduled charging time, Model X displays the set time on the instrument panel and the touchscreen.
4. Touch to open the charge port door or to start (or stop) charging.
5. The current automatically sets to the maximum current available from the attached charge cable, unless it was previously reduced to a lower level.
If needed, touch the up/down arrows to change the current (for example, you may want to
reduce the current if you are concerned about overloading a domestic wiring circuit shared by other equipment). It is not possible to set the charging current to a level that exceeds themaximum available from the attached charge cable.
When you change the current, Model X remembers the location. So if you subsequently charge at the same location, you do not need to change it again.
Note: If Model X automatically reduced a charging location

Charging Status
The following illustration is provided for demonstration purposes only and may vary slightly
depending on the software version and market region of your Model X.
1. Charging status information. For example, if Model X is charging, it displays the time remaining until fully charged at the currently selected charge level. When a charging session
has been scheduled, it displays when charging starts.
2. Total estimated driving distance (or energy) available. Instead of driving distance as shown here, you can display the percentage of battery energy remaining by touching Controls >
Settings > Units & Format > Energy & Charging.
Note: A portion of the battery image may appear blue. This indicates that a small portion of
the energy stored in the battery is not available because the battery is cold. This is normal and
no reason for concern. When the battery warms up, the blue portion no longer displays.
3. Charging rate per hour.
4. Estimated increase in driving distance (or energy) achieved so far in this charging session. Instead of driving distance as illustrated above, you can display the amount of energy gained
by touching Controls > Settings > Units & Format > Energy & Charging.
5. Current being supplied/current available from the connected power supply (see Changing
Charge Settings on page 147).
6. Voltage being supplied by the charge cable.
Note: If Model X is charging and detects unexpected
