Center Console
In addition to housing an RFID transmitter that reads key fobs and key cards (see
Keys on page 13), the center
console includes cup holders, two storage
compartments, wireless phone chargers, and a rear
touchscreen.
To open the main storage compartment, pull its cover upward. Open the front storage compartment by sliding its cover forward.
Model X has two cupholders that slide out under the
rear touchscreen.
Glovebox
To open the glovebox, touch Controls > Glovebox. The
glovebox automatically opens and the light turns on.
To close the glovebox, push it upward until it latches into the closed position.
For additional glovebox security, touch Controls >
Safety > Glovebox PIN to set a 4-digit PIN (see
Glovebox PIN on page 150).
NOTE: If you leave the glovebox open, its light
eventually turns
off.
NOTE: The glovebox locks whenever closed and you
lock
Model X using the mobile app, key card, you leave
Model X carrying your phone key (if Walk-Away Door
Lock is turned on), or if Valet mode is active (see
Valet
Mode on page 58). It does not lock when Model X is
locked by touching the lock icon on the touchscreen.
WARNING: When driving, keep the glovebox
closed to prevent injury to a passenger if a
collision or sudden stop occurs.
USB Ports
Model X has five USB ports:
Page 33 of 296

Rear USB ports are located below the rear touchscreen:
Glovebox USB port:
NOTE: Power is available whenever the vehicle is
considered "awake". The vehicle may be awake for many
reasons. For example, when using features such as
Summon, or when features such as Preconditioning,
Keep Climate On, Dog Mode, Camp Mode, or Sentry Mode are enabled. The vehicle is also awake whenever the
low voltage battery is being charged or is in use,
during high voltage charging, when the vehicle is communicating with the mobile app, etc. Leaving an accessory plugged in does not deplete the
low voltage
battery.
NOTE: Use USB 3.0 compliant cables to connect a
device to a USB port. Using non-compliant cables can result in slower charging, potential connection problems or degraded performance.
NOTE: Do not connect multiple devices using a USB
hub. This can prevent connected devices from charging or from being recognized by Media Player, Sentry Mode, Dashcam, etc.
Wireless Phone Chargers
Wireless phone chargers are integrated into both the
front and rear consoles, each providing up to 15W of power to charge Qi-enabled phones. Simply place your phone on the charger. Your device may feel warm while charging, but this is a normal
effect of inductive
charging.
When placed on the wireless charger, your phone
charges whenever the vehicle is powered on (the
touchscreen is on and you are in the vehicle). Your
phone does not charge when you leave the vehicle
unless a feature, such as Sentry mode is enabled.
NOTE: The phone must be in direct contact with the
wireless charger. Do not place objects between the phone and the charger (for example, credit cards, key
cards, coins, keys, metal objects, etc.).
NOTE: The wireless phone charger may not work if your
phone case is too large or is made of metal. Try removing the phone from its case before placing it on the charger.
NOTE: The wireless phone charger does not charge if
the vehicle

NOTE: The ability to format, and view video footage on,
USB drives may not be available on your vehicle
depending on date of manufacture and vehicle
configuration.
Some features on your Model X requires the use of a
USB drive (for example, Dashcam
, Sentry Mode) that
meet these requirements:

USB Connected Flash Drives
Insert a flash drive into a front USB port (see USB Ports
on page 30). Touch Media Player > USB, and then touch
the name of the folder that contains the song you want to play. After you display the contents of a folder on the USB connected
flash drive, you can touch any song in
the list to play it. Or use the previous and next arrows in
Media Player to scroll through your songs. You can also
scroll to next/previous songs using the left scroll button on the
steering yoke (or steering wheel).
NOTE: To play media from a USB connection, Model X
recognizes flash drives only. To play media from other
types of devices (such as an iPod), you must connect the device using Bluetooth.
NOTE: Media Player supports USB flash drives with
exFAT formatting (NTFS is not currently supported).
NOTE: Use a USB port located at the front of the center
console. The USB connections at the rear of the console are for charging only.
Bluetooth Connected Devices
If you have a Bluetooth-capable device such as a phone that is paired and connected to
Model X (see Pairing a
Bluetooth Phone on page 143), you can play audio files
stored on it. Choose Media Player

The touchscreen displays the Entertainment screen when you choose any of the following apps:
Theater: Play various video streaming services (such as Netflix, YouTube, Hulu, etc.) while parked.
Available only if
Model X is connected to WiFi, or is equipped with premium connectivity and a cellular
signal is available.
Arcade: Want to game? Depending on the game, you may need to use the steering yoke (or steering
wheel) buttons or a Bluetooth or USB controller to play. See Gaming Controllers on page 174.
