2017 TESLA MODEL X Owner's Manual (UK)

Testing Seat Belts
To
confirm that seat belts are operating
correctly, perform these three simple checks on each seat belt.
1. With the seat belt fastened, give the webbing nearest the buckle a quick pull.
The buckle should remain securely locked.
2. With the belt unfastened, unreel the webbing to its limit. Check that unreeling
is free from snags, and visually check the
webbing for wear. Allow the webbing to retract, checking that retraction is smooth
and complete.
3. With the webbing half unreeled, hold the tongue plate and pull forward quickly. The
mechanism should lock automatically and
prevent further unreeling.
If a seat belt fails any of these tests, contact
Tesla immediately.
Seat Belt Warnings
Warning: Seat belts should be worn by all
occupants at all times, even if driving for
a very short distance. Failure to do so
increases the risk of injury or death if an accident occurs.Warning: Secure small children in a
suitable child safety seat. Always follow
the child safety seat manufacturer

*ISOFIX - The international standard for attachment points for child safety seats in passenger
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

Seating Larger Children
If a child is too large to
fit into a child safety
seat, but too small to safely fit into the
standard seat belts, use a booster seat
appropriate for the child

3. If the seat belt retained child safety seathas an upper tether, attach it to the back
of the seat (see Attaching Upper Tether
Straps on page 32).
Installing ISOFIX Child Seats
Lower ISOFIX anchors are provided in the
second row outboard seats and in both rear
row seats. The anchors are located between the seat

Bench Seats:
In the third row (if equipped), you can install
ISOFIX child safety seats in both seating
locations.
To install a ISOFIX child safety seat, slide the
safety seat latches onto the anchor bars until
they click into place. Carefully read and follow
the instructions provided by the child safety
seat manufacturer.
