and try to pull it away from the seat, then
check that the anchors are still securely in
place.
Attaching Upper Tether Straps
If an upper tether strap is provided, attach its
hook to the anchor point located on the back
of the second and third row seats.
For dual-strap tethers, position a strap on each side of the head restraint.
The method you use to run a single-strap
tether over a second row seat depends on
whether Model X is equipped with monopost
or bench seats:

Testing a Child Safety Seat
Before seating a child, always make sure the
child safety seat is not loose:
1. Hold the child safety seat by the belt path and try to slide the safety seat from side
to side and front to back.
2. If the seat moves more than 2.5 cm, it is too loose. Tighten the belt or reconnect
the ISOFIX retained child safety seat.
3. If you are unable to reduce slack, try a
different seat location or try another child
safety seat.

Disabling the Passenger Front
Airbags
When a child is seated in the front passenger
seat (even when the child is seated in a child safety seat or booster seat), you must ensure
the passenger front airbags are disabled to
prevent them from injuring the child if a
collision occurs.
Note: Rear seats are the preferred location for
seating children in child safety seats.
To control the front and side airbags on the
passenger side of the vehicle, touch Controls >
Settings > Safety & Security > Passenger
Front Airbag. Then choose from two options:

empty or carrying a weight of 9 kg or less, it
will take the touchscreen approximately six seconds to display the status, PASS AIRBAG
OFF. If it fails to do so, contact Tesla service
immediately and turn the airbags
off manually
when a child is seated in the front passenger
seating position.
If the airbag is permanently on, even when the seat is empty and the seat belt is unbuckled,contact Tesla immediately.
To make sure the sensing system can correctly detect occupancy status, eliminate the
following:

Warning: Airbags inflate with
considerable speed and force, which can
cause injury. To limit injuries, ensure that occupants are wearing seat belts and are
correctly seated, with the seat positioned as far back as possible.Warning: Do not use a child safety seat or
seat young children on a seat with an
operational airbag in front of it. Doing so
can cause injury or death if the airbag
inflates.
