Seat TESLA MODEL X 2020 Owner's Guide

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.
Child Safety Seat Warnings
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 safety seats are designed
to be secured in vehicle seats by lap belts or the lap belt portion of a lap-shoulderbelt. A child could be endangered in a
crash if a child safety seat is not properly
secured in the vehicle.Warning: According to collision 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

only. The side airbags are not affected.Warning: If the front passenger airbag is not turning on or off as expected based on the
weight thresholds previously described, contact Tesla immediately.Warning: Never seat a child in a rear facing child seat on the front passenger seat, even if the
passenger airbag is off. All occupants age 12 and under must ride in the second and rear row
(if equipped) seats.Warning: To ensure accuracy of the occupant detection system, do not make any
modifications to the front passenger seat.Warning: Do not use seat covers on Model X. Doing so could restrict deployment of the seat-
mounted side air bags if a collision occurs. It can also reduce the accuracy of the occupant
detection system, if equipped.
