Inflating with Air Only
If you have a Tesla tire repair kit, follow these
steps to
inflate a tire with air:
1. Detach the power supply connector from the rear of the compressor and plug it into
the 12V power socket located in Model X
on the front of center console.
2. Release the black air hose from the compressor.
3. Attach the air hose to the valve and press the lever down to secure it in place.
4. Ensure the compressor is lying on a level
surface with the pressure gauge facing tothe side where you can read it.
5. To add air, turn on the compressor and
inflate until the desired pressure is
reached.
6. To release air, turn
off the compressor,
then press and hold the red button until
the desired pressure is reached.
Note: For your convenience, the tire repair kit
includes a selection of adapters that allow you
to
inflate other items. These adapters are
located in a compartment on the back of the compressor.
Caution: To avoid overheating, do not use
the compressor continuously for more
than eight minutes. Allow the compressor
to cool for 15 minutes between uses.Caution: The compressor runs slowly
when overheated from excessive use. Turn
it
off and allow it to cool.Temporary Tire Repair

Connect the Towing EyeThe method used to connect the winch cabledepends on whether Model X is equipped with
a towing eye (located in the front trunk).
If not equipped with a towing eye:
1. Attach the tow straps to the large hole on each of the rearmost lower suspension
arms underneath the front of the vehicle.
2. To protect the underbody from any damage that could be caused by the tow
straps, place a 2" x 4" piece of wood
between the tow straps and the
underbody.
Caution: Before pulling, position the wood
between the tow strap and the
underbody to ensure the underbody is
protected from any damage that could be caused by the tow strap.If equipped with a towing eye:
1. Locate the towing eye in the front trunk.
2. Remove the tow hook cover by inserting a small
flat screwdriver into the slot located
along the top of the cover, then prying gently to release the cover from the topsnap.
3. Insert the towing eye.
Fully insert the towing eye into the
opening on the right side, then turn it
counter-clockwise until securely fastened.
4. Attach the winch cable to the towing eye.
Caution: Before pulling, make sure the
towing eye is securely tightened.
