vehicles.
Note: If the combined weight of the child and the child safety seat is over 29 kg, Tesla
recommends attaching the safety seat using the seat belt and upper tether strap. In addition to
safety, this has the added
benefit of ensuring the seat belt reminder does not stay lit. Always
follow the child safety seat manufacturer

Supported Bicycle Carriers
To support the installation of a carrier (such as
a bicycle rack) on the rear of Model X, the
optional towing package is required. Do not
attempt to install a carrier on a Model X that is
not equipped with the towing package. Doing
so can cause damage.
Model X is designed to support a bicycle
carrier of up to 120 lbs (55 kg). When carry
bicycles on Model X, always check to ensure
that the maximum weight is not exceeded. For
example, this weight threshold is
sufficient for
carrying two bicycles weighing approximately
40 lbs (18 kg) each, or four bicycles weighting
approximately 20 lbs (9 kg) each, assuming
the carrier weighs approximately 33 lbs (15
kg).
Warning: The accessory hitch is designed
to attach a 1.25“ hitch accessory only. Do
not use the accessory hitch for trailer
towing, transportation or vehicle recovery.
Installing a Bicycle Carrier
1. Carefully follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer of the bicycle carrier.
2. Connect the electrical connector (if equipped). When Model X detects the
electrical connector, the touchscreen may
prompt you to enter Trailer Mode. To
ensure availability of Autopilot features, it
is recommended that you do not activate
Trailer Mode.
3. Check that the lights are functioning properly (if equipped).
Note: Bicycle carriers or other accessories
mounted on the rear trunk are likely to
obscure the rear view camera

and includes the weight of all occupants, cargo and any additional equipment added toyour Model X since it was manufactured.
There are three labels attached to Model X
that state how much weight it can safely carry.
These labels are located on the center door
pillar and are visible when the driver
