2018 TESLA MODEL X Owner's Manual 

When Model X is stopped, Vehicle Hold can
continue to apply the brakes even after you
remove your foot from the brake pedal. When
driving on a hill or on a
flat surface, brake as
you normally would. After coming to a
complete stop, simply press the brake pedal
again (until the instrument panel displays the
Vehicle Hold indicator light) to enable Vehicle
Hold. You can then release the brake pedal and remain stopped, even on a hill.
This indicator displays on the
instrument panel whenever Vehicle
Hold is actively braking Model X.
To disengage Vehicle Hold, press the
accelerator pedal or press and release the
brake pedal.
Note: Shifting into Neutral also disengages
Vehicle Hold.
Note: After actively braking Model X for
approximately ten minutes, Model X shifts into
Park and Vehicle Hold cancels. Model X also
shifts into Park if it detects that the driver has
left the vehicle.

Driving Tips to Maximize Range
You can maximize your driving range using
the same driving habits that you use to conserve fuel in a gasoline-powered vehicle. Inaddition to driving habits, energy
consumption depends on environmental conditions (such as exceptionally cold or hot
weather and driving on roads with steep hills). To get the maximum mileage from a charge:

The map displays superchargers
only.The map displays superchargers,
destination chargers, and visited
chargers. In situations where a
charging location may not be
reachable based on your currently
available driving range, its
associated icon on the map
displays as semi-transparent.
When you are at risk of driving beyond the
range of known charging locations, the
touchscreen displays a message giving you the opportunity to display a list of charging
locations that are within range. When you
select a charging location from the list,
Model X provides navigation instructions and
the turn-by-turn direction list displays the
predicted amount of energy that will remain
when you arrive at the charging destination.
In addition to the message that displays when
you are at risk of driving beyond the range of
known charging locations, a warning symbol
displays on the range assurance icon:
Touch to display a search list of
charging locations that are
estimated to be within your driving
range. Then touch a location in the
search list to navigate to it.Based on the amount of energy
remaining in your Model X, there
are no known charging locations
within your driving range.

Camera Location
Model X is equipped with a rear view camera
located above the rear license plate.
Whenever you shift into Reverse, the
touchscreen displays the view from the
camera. Lines show your driving path based
on the position of the steering wheel. These
lines adjust appropriately as you move the
steering wheel.
Note: Visual feedback from the parking
sensors displays on the instrument panel (see
Park Assist on page 70).
Warning: Never depend on the rear view
camera to inform you if the area behind
you is free of objects and/or people when
reversing. The camera may not detect
objects or barriers that can potentially
cause damage or injury. In addition,
several external factors can reduce the
performance of the camera, including a
dirty or obstructed lens. Therefore,
depending on the rear view camera to
determine if Model X is approaching an
obstruction can result in damage to the vehicle and/or objects, and can
potentially cause serious injury. Always
inspect the area with your own eyes.
When reversing, perform shoulder checks and use all mirrors. Use the camera forguidance purposes only. It is not intendedto replace your own direct visual checks
and is not a substitute for careful driving.
Cleaning the Camera
To ensure a clear picture, keep the camera
lens clean, and free of obstructions. Remove
any buildup of dirt by occasionally wiping the camera lens with a soft damp cloth.
Caution: Do not use chemical-based or
abrasive cleaners. Doing so can damage
the surface of the camera lens.
