6.Choose how air is drawn into Model X:Outside air is drawn into Model X (see Ventilation on page 154).Air inside Model X is recirculated. This prevents outside air (traffic fumes)
from entering, but reduces dehumidifying performance. Recirculating the
air is the most efficient way to cool the front cabin area. To prevent the
windshield from fogging in some conditions, brie

Driving in Low Temperatures
Tire performance is reduced in low ambient
temperatures, resulting in reduced grip and an
increased susceptibility to damage from
impacts. Performance tires can temporarily
harden when cold, causing you to hear rotational noise for the first few miles
(kilometers) until the tires warm up.
Using Tire Chains
Tesla has tested and approved Maggie Group
Trak Special LT51 tire chains to increase traction in snowy conditions. These chains
should only be installed on rear 19" or 20"
tires. Do not use chains on 22" tires or on front
tires. The approved tire chains can be
purchased from Tesla.
When installing tire chains, follow the instructions and warnings provided by the tire
chain manufacturer. Mount them evenly and as
tight as possible.
When using tire chains:

Vehicle Loading
Load Capacity Labeling It is important to understand how much
weight your Model X can safely carry. This
weight is called the vehicle capacity weight
and includes the weight of all occupants, cargo and any additional equipment added toyour Model X since it was manufactured.
One or more labels attached to the center
door pillar indicate how much weight Model X
can safely carry. Labels are visible when the front door is open.
1. Towing label (if equipped)
2. Tire and Loading Information label
3. Vehicle Certification label
Note: Towing capability is available only if
Model X is equipped with the Towing Package.
Warning: Overloading Model X has an
adverse effect on braking and handling,
which can compromise your safety or cause damage.Caution: Never load more than 175 lbs (80
kg) on the rear load
