Caution: Keep sensors clean from dirt,
debris, snow, and ice. Avoid using a high
pressure power washer on the sensors
and do not clean a sensor with a sharp or abrasive object that can scratch or
damage its surface.Caution: Do not install accessories or
stickers on or near the parking sensors.
Controlling Audible Feedback
You can use Park Assist with or without
audible feedback. To turn chimes on or
off,touch Controls > Settings > Safety &
Security > Park Assist Chimes .
To mute the chimes temporarily, press the
scroll wheel on the left side of the steering wheel or touch the mute button in the bottomleft corner of the Park Assist view. The chimesare muted until you shift into a
different gear
or drive over 8 km/h.
Limitations and False Warnings
The parking sensors may not function correctly in these situations:

Camera Location
Model X is equipped with a rear view camera
located above the rear license plate.
Whenever you shift into Reverse, the
touchscreen displays the view from the
camera. Lines show your driving path based
on the position of the steering wheel. These
lines adjust appropriately as you move the
steering wheel.
Note: Visual feedback from the parking
sensors displays on the instrument panel (see
Park Assist on page 70).
Warning: Never depend on the rear view
camera to inform you if the area behind
you is free of objects and/or people when
reversing. The camera may not detect
objects or barriers that can potentially
cause damage or injury. In addition,
several external factors can reduce the
performance of the camera, including a
dirty or obstructed lens. Therefore,
depending on the rear view camera to
determine if Model X is approaching an
obstruction can result in damage to the vehicle and/or objects, and can
potentially cause serious injury. Always
inspect the area with your own eyes.
When reversing, perform shoulder checks and use all mirrors. Use the camera forguidance purposes only. It is not intendedto replace your own direct visual checks
and is not a substitute for careful driving.
Cleaning the Camera
To ensure a clear picture, keep the camera
lens clean, and free of obstructions. Remove
any buildup of dirt by occasionally wiping the camera lens with a soft damp cloth.
Caution: Do not use chemical-based or
abrasive cleaners. Doing so can damage
the surface of the camera lens.

Note: Autosteer is a BETA feature.
If you have purchased the optional Enhanced Autopilot or Full Self-Driving Capabilitypackages, you can use Autosteer to manage
steering and speed under certain
circumstances. Autosteer builds upon
Traffic-
Aware Cruise Control (see Traffic-AwareCruise Control on page 91), intelligently
keeping Model X in its driving lane when
cruising at a set speed. Using the vehicle

Warning: Auto Lane Change is designed
to be used only when driving on
restricted-access highways (i.e. with on-
ramps and
off-ramps).
If you have purchased the optional Enhanced Autopilot or Full Self-Driving Capabilitypackages, you can use Auto Lane Change to
move Model X into an adjacent lane. When
both
Traffic-Aware Cruise Control and
Autosteer are active, Auto Lane Change
intelligently assists you in steering Model X into an adjacent driving lane. Using the
forward looking camera(s), the radar sensor,
and ultrasonic sensors, Model X detects lane
markings and the presence of other vehicles.
Auto Lane Change is designed for use on restricted-access highways with visible lanemarkings and under relatively predictable
circumstances in which minimal steering and
driver intervention is needed.

Overview of Climate Controls
The climate controls are always available at the bottom of the touchscreen. By default, climate control is set to Auto, which maintains optimum comfort in all but the most severe weather conditions. When you adjust the temperature, the system automatically adjusts the heating, air
conditioning, air distribution, air circulation, and fan speed to maintain your selected temperature. To override these settings, touch Auto (see Customizing Climate Control on page 127).
The fan, heating, and air conditioning systems are powered by the Battery. Therefore, prolonged
use decreases driving range.
Note: The following illustration is provided for demonstration purposes only. Depending on vehicle
options, software version, market region, and settings, the information displayed may be slightly
different.
1. The front seats are equipped with heating/cooling pads. When operating, the top indicator
turns red when heating or the bottom indicator turns blue when cooling.
Note: If Model X is equipped with the optional cold weather package, you can also control
seat heaters in the rear seats, heated wipers, and heated steering wheel by touching Controls > Cold Weather (see Controls on page 119).
2. Touch the up or down arrow to set the cabin temperature. To apply a temperature setting to
both the driver and passenger side at the same time, touch SYNC TEMP on the temperature
popup that appears when you touch an arrow.
3. Touch the fan icon to customize and automate climate control settings for the front and rear
cabin. (See Customizing Climate Control on page 127.)
Note: Rear climate controls are available only if Model X is equipped with six or seven seating
positions.
4. The windshield defroster distributes air
flow to the windshield. Touch once to turn on, touch a
second time to operate the heating and fan at their maximum level, and touch a third time to
turn
off and restore the air distribution, heating, and fan to their previous settings.
5. Turn climate control system on/off.
Note: The label on this button says Keep Climate On if you have set the climate control system
to maintain your temperature settings when parked (see Customizing Climate Control on
page 127).
6. The rear window defroster warms up the rear window for 15 minutes, then automatically shuts
off. Exterior side mirrors are also heated.
Warning:
To avoid burns resulting from prolonged use, individuals who have peripheral
neuropathy, or whose capacity to feel pain is limited because of diabetes, age, neurological injury, or some other condition, should exercise caution when using the climate control
system and seat heaters.
