lights TESLA MODEL X 2019   User Guide

Instrument Panel - DrivingWhen Model X is driving (or ready to drive), the instrument panel shows your current driving
status and a real-time visualization of the road as detected by the Autopilot components (see
About Autopilot on page 97). The visualization automatically zooms in and out as needed to
inform you when a vehicle is detected in your blind spot.
Note: The following illustration is provided for demonstration purposes only. Depending on vehicle
options, software version, and market region, the information displayed may be slightly different.
1.Indicator lights display along the top to provide status (see Instrument Panel Overview on
page 65).
2. When you are actively navigating to a destination, navigation instructions display here. Use
the left steering wheel buttons to change what displays on the left side of the instrument
panel whenever navigation instructions are not displayed (see Using Left Steering Wheel
Buttons on page 53).
3. Traffic-Aware Cruise Control is cruising at a set speed. When Traffic-Aware Cruise Control is
available but you haven

Note: If regenerative braking is aggressively
slowing Model X (such as when your foot is
completely off the accelerator pedal at
highway speeds), the brake lights turn on to
alert others that you are slowing down.Warning: In snowy or icy conditions
Model X may experience traction loss
during regenerative braking, particularly
when in the Standard setting and/or not
using winter tires. Tesla recommends
using the Low setting (see To Set the
Regenerative Braking Level on page 73)
in snowy or icy conditions to help
maintain vehicle stability.
The Energy app displays real-time feedback
on the amount of energy being gained by
regenerative braking. You can also display the
power meter on either side of the instrument
panel by choosing Energy using the scroll
button on the steering wheel (see Steering
Wheel on page 53).
The amount of energy fed back to the Battery using regenerative braking can depend on thecurrent state of the Battery and the charge
level setting that you are using. For example,
regenerative braking may be limited if the Battery is already fully charged or if the
ambient temperature is too cold.
Note: If regenerative braking is limited, a
dashed yellow line displays on the power
meter.
To Set the Regenerative Braking Level
You can use the touchscreen to change the
level of regenerative braking:
1. Touch Controls > Driving > Regenerative
Braking .
2. Choose from two levels:

When you use the touchscreen to
manually apply the parking brake,
the red parking brake indicator lights
up on the instrument panel .If the parking brake experiences an
electrical issue, the amber parking brake indicator lights up and a fault
message displays at the top of the
instrument panel.Caution: In the unlikely event that
Model X loses electrical power, you
cannot access the touchscreen and are
therefore unable to release the parking
brake. Contact Tesla.

Towing and Accessories
The towing package allows you to tow a trailer
with your Model X. It also allows you to carry skis, snowboards, bicycles, etc. by attaching
an accessory carrier to the hitch.
Carrying Accessories The Model X towing package has a 50 mm ball
coupling that can support an accessory
carrier.
The ball coupling is designed to support vertical loads of up to 54 kg. When carrying
bicycles or other items on the Model X hitch, always check to ensure that the maximum
weight is not exceeded. When calculating
weight, remember to include the weight of the
accessory carrier. For example, assuming the
carrier weighs 14 kg, the weight threshold is sufficient for carrying two bicycles weighing
approximately 20 kg each, or four bicycles
weighing approximately 10 kg each.
Caution: The Model X hitch is designed to
support up to 54 kg. Exceeding this
maximum weight can cause significant
damage.Caution: Do not attempt to install a
carrier on a Model X that is not equipped
with the towing package. Doing so can
cause significant damage.
To install and use an accessory carrier, the tow
hitch must be connected (see Connecting the
Tow Hitch on page 93). Then follow the
instructions provided with your accessory
carrier. Observe all regulations and legal requirements in your state/region that apply
to carrying accessories.
The Model X towing package includes the
wiring necessary for using an accessory carrier
equipped with lights (see Electrical
Connections on page 95). The package also
includes Trailer Mode software (see Trailer
Mode on page 90).
When you connect an accessory
carrier

always include the use of the HOV lane,
whenever it exists.Warning: Even when Navigate on
Autopilot deactivates at off-ramps,
Autosteer remains active. Always be
prepared to take appropriate actions such
as stopping at red lights and stop signs, and yielding to other road users.Warning: Navigate on Autopilot may not
always attempt to exit at an off-ramp,
even when the exit is determined by the
navigation route. Always remain alert and
be prepared to manually steer onto the
off-ramp, or make a required lane change.
You can cancel Navigate on Autopilot at any
time by touching the Navigate on Autopilot
button on the map
