seat adjustment TESLA MODEL X 2023 Owners Manual

WARNING: Riding in a moving vehicle with the
seat back reclined can result in serious injuries in a
collision, as you could slide under the lap belt or
be propelled into the seat belt. Ensure your seat
back is reclined no more than 30 degrees when
the vehicle is moving.
Calibrating Seats
(If equipped) You can calibrate the driver seat. This is useful if you
find your seat range limited or your driver
profile does not automatically adjust the seat for you.
Navigate to
Controls > Service > Driver Seat, Steering &
Mirrors Calibration and follow the instructions on the
touchscreen.
WARNING: Ensure nothing is behind or
underneath the driver seat during calibration.
Failure to do so may cause serious injury.
Adjusting Second Row Seats
(Bench)
Second row bench seats can accommodate up to three passengers. Use the mechanical adjustment lever
located at the side of each outboard seating position to adjust the seat backs. A bench seat is split 60/40 so the adjustment lever on the left side moves the seat backs
for both the left and center seats, whereas the lever on the right side moves the rightmost seat back only. While pulling and holding the lever, move the seat back to the desired position, and then release the lever. When
returning a seat back to its upright position, try moving
it forward or back to ensure it is securely latched into
position.
WARNING: Riding in a moving vehicle with the
seat back reclined can result in serious injuries in a
collision, as you could slide under the lap belt or
be propelled into the seat belt. Ensure the backs of
occupied seats are reclined no more than 30
degrees when the vehicle is moving.
Folding Second Row Seats (Bench)
The second row seat backs on bench seats can be
folded fully forward so they lay
flat and maximize cargo
space. Pull up the mechanical lever located on the side of each outboard seat (the same lever you use to recline
the seats, as described previously), then push the seat
back fully forward. The bench seats have a 60/40 split

NOTE: You can adjust the position of bench seats using
the mechanical levers only. You cannot use the touchscreen to adjust bench seats.
Adjusting Second Row Seats
(Monopost)
A Model X equipped with monopost seats can
accommodate two passengers in the second row. To
adjust the position of these seats, use the manual
adjustments.
Use the button near the top of the seat to move the seat
back forward/backward.
Use the L-shaped button at the bottom of the seat to move the seat forward/backward (up/down on the control) and adjust the backrest by tilting the top of the
L-shaped button forward/backward.
NOTE: The backrest locks into position when you release
the lever. If a backrest is not locked into position when a
drive mode is engaged, the instrument panel displays an alert for the unlocked backrest. Adjust the backrest again, ensuring it locks into position.
WARNING: Before driving, ensure the seat is
locked in position. You may need to pull the seat
forward or backward until it clicks into place.
Accessing Third Row Seats (if
equipped)
Bench Seats
If your vehicle is equipped with bench seats, a button is
located on the backrest of each second row outboard bench seat. This third row ingress button makes it easy for passengers to enter and exit the third row seating
positions. Press and release the button on the left outboard seat to tilt and move the combined left and center seats forward. Press and release the button on the right outboard seat to tilt and move the right seat
forward.
WARNING: For vehicles with third row seats, do
not use the third row ingress button located on the
backrest of a second row outboard bench seat
when a child is seated in the second row. Using the
button allows the combined left and center seats
to be moved forward and can squeeze the
occupant. Use this button only when the second
row seats are unoccupied. Before driving, ensure
the seat and the seat back are securely latched
into position.

incline or when the seat
