2016 TESLA MODEL X change wheel

automatically changes to display navigation
instructions (if applicable), or to let you know
if a door or trunk is open when Model X is in a driving gear.
Using Right Steering Wheel Buttons Use the buttons on the right side of thesteering wheel to access call options while on
a phone call, to browse the phonebook of a
Bluetooth-connected phone, to choose what
displays on the right side of the instrument
panel, to adjust Model X features, and to use
voice commands.
Note: Whenever you receive or make a phone call, the right side of the instrument panelautomatically displays call options to help you
easily handle phone calls on your Bluetooth-
connected phone.
1. Touch to browse the phonebook of a
Bluetooth-connected phone and touch
again to close it.
Press and hold to use voice commands to
navigate to a destination. When you hear
the tone, speak your command. Release
the button when you
finish speaking. For
details, see Using Voice Commands on
page 39.
2. Scroll Wheel

8. Use the right steering wheel buttons to change what displays on the right side of theinstrument panel whenever a phone call is not active (see Using Left Steering Wheel Buttons
on page 37).
9. Total estimated driving distance (or energy) available. Instead of driving distance, you can display the percentage of battery energy remaining. To do so, touch Controls > Settings >
Units & Format > Energy & Charging (see Settings on page 101).
Note: When anticipating when you need to charge, use range estimates as a general guideline only.
Note: In cold weather, some of the stored energy in the Battery may not be available on your drive because the Battery is too cold. When this happens, a portion of the Battery meter isblue and the driving distance value has a
snowflake image next to it. If Model X is plugged in,
you can heat your Battery using wall power by turning on climate control using the mobile app. When the Battery warms up, the blue portion on the meter and the
snowflake image are
no longer displayed.
10. The speed limit (if available) that is currently being detected by Speed Assist (see Speed
Assist on page 91).
11. The car in front of you (if applicable).
12. Pay attention to important driving-related messages that appear at the bottom center of the instrument panel.
13. Your Model X.
14. When Autosteer is active, the driving lane is highlighted in blue (see Autosteer on page 80).
The lane may highlight in red If a front wheel passes over a lane marking and the associated
turn signal is
off (see Lane Assist on page 86).
15. Currently selected gear: Park, Reverse, Neutral, or Drive.

The turn signals stop operating when canceledby the steering wheel, or when you return the
lever to the central position.
The corresponding turn signal
indicator lights up on the instrument
panel when a turn signal is
operating. You also hear a clicking
sound.Warning: If Model X is equipped with both
Autopilot hardware and the optional
Autopilot Tech Package, engaging a turn
signal can cause Model X to accelerate
when using
Traffic-Aware Cruise Control
in specific situations (see Overtake
Acceleration on page 77).
Lane Change Flash
To indicate a lane change, quickly press the
lever up or down against the spring pressure,
then release. The corresponding turn signal
flashes three times.
Hazard Warning Flashers To turn on the hazard warning
flashers, press
the button located on the side of the
touchscreen closest to the steering wheel. All turn signals
flash. Press again to turn off.
Note: Hazard warning flashers operate even
without a Model X key nearby.

Regenerative Braking
Whenever Model X is moving and your foot is
off the accelerator, regenerative braking slows
down Model X and feeds any surplus energy
back to the Battery.
By anticipating your stops and simply
removing pressure from the accelerator to slow down, you can take advantage ofregenerative braking to increase driving range.
Of course, this is no substitute for regular braking when needed for safety.
Note: If regenerative braking is aggressively
slowing Model X, such as on a steep descent,
brake lights turn on to alert other road usersthat you are slowing down.
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 37).
The amount of energy fed back to the Battery
using regenerative braking can depend on the
current state of the Battery and the charge level setting that you are using. If regenerative
braking is limited, a dashed yellow line
displays on the power meter. For example,
regenerative braking may be limited if the Battery is already fully charged or if the
ambient temperature is low.
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:

Note: Auto Lane Change assists in movingModel X one lane at a time. Moving into an
additional lane requires you to engage the
turn signal a second time when the
first lane
change is complete.
Warning: If Auto Lane Change can not
detect the outside of the target lane
midway through the lane change, both
Auto Lane Change and Autosteer will cancel. The instrument panel displays a
message instructing you to take over the
steering wheel immediately.
When Auto Lane Change is active, it is
important to monitor its performance by
watching the driving path in front of you. Stay
prepared to take over steering at any time. On the instrument panel, the lane you are crossing
over displays as a dashed blue line and once in your new lane, the lane markings display as
solid blue lines.
In situations where Auto Lane Change is
unable to operate at optimal performance, or
can not operate due to inadequate data, the
instrument panel displays a series of warnings.
Therefore, when using Auto Lane Change,
always pay attention to the instrument panel
and be prepared to manually steer Model X.
Warning: When Auto Lane Change is
actively assisting in steering Model X, the steering wheel moves accordingly.

Calibration
During a parking sequence, Autopark must
maneuver Model X with a great deal of
precision. Therefore, before it can be used, Autopark must complete a calibration process.Calibration can take anywhere from 30
minutes to several days, depending on driving
behavior. When Autopark is calibrating, you
will see a note on the Driver Assistance
settings screen indicating that calibration is in
progress. When calibration is complete, this
note no longer displays and Autopark is available for use.
Note: Autopark will repeat the calibration
process whenever tires are changed.
Canceling Autopark Autopark cancels when you manually move
the steering wheel during a parking sequence,
or when you change gears. Autopark also
cancels when:

3. Main viewing areaThe main viewing area changes depending on the app you have chosen (in the example, the
Nav and Media apps are displayed). For some apps (such as Nav and Web), you can zoom in and out using standard touchscreen
finger gestures.
4. Maximize/minimize app
Touch the small rectangle to expand the associated app to
fill the entire main viewing area
(some apps are not expandable). Touch again to display two apps in half-screen view.
5. Volume control
Touch the up and down arrows to increase or decrease the volume of the speakers. You can
also adjust the volume using the scroll wheel on the left side of the steering wheel.
6. Climate controls (see Climate Controls on page 105).
7. Controls
Touch to access all Model X controls and settings (doors, locks, lights, etc).
8. Reverse the position of the two currently displayed apps.
Warning: Paying attention to road and traffic conditions must always be the driver
