Accessing third row seats when bench seats
are installed in the second row:
The Easy Entry button located on the backrest
of each second row outboard bench seat
makes it easy for passengers to enter and exit
the third row seating positions (if equipped). Press and release the Easy Entry button onthe left outboard seat to tilt and move the
combined left and center seats forward. Press
and release the Easy Entry button on the right
outboard seat to tilt and move the right seat
forward. After you use Easy Entry to access
the third row seats, push the bench seats back
to their seating position, ensuring the seats
are securely latched into position by pushing
and pulling on them.
Note: When bench seats are installed in the
second row, you access the third row seats
simply by pressing and releasing the Easy
Entry button.
In some situations, such as when you are
parked on an incline or when the seat trim
affects the movement of the bench seats, after
you press the Easy Entry button, the bench
seats might not move forward completely, and you may need to push the seats forward
gently until they reach the end of the track.
If a front row seat is positioned such that the second row monopost or bench seat will
collide with it during an easy entry operation,
it automatically moves forward just enough to accommodate the forward position of the
second row seat.
Note: Forward movement of second row seats
cancels if an occupant adjusts a second row
seat while it is moving.
Note: When an outboard seat tilts forward for
easy entry, its backrest resets to the neutral
position and may need to be re-adjusted.
Warning: Do not rely on Model X to
recognize or accommodate occupants
seated in the vehicle while using the Easy Entry feature. Use Easy Entry only whenseats are unoccupied.
Folding Third Row Seats
If Model X is equipped with third row seats, remove items from the seats and the rear
footwell before folding. To allow the third row
seat backs to fold completely
flat, you may
need to move the second row seats forward.
To fold a third row seat, press the button
located in the top outside corner of the seat.
The button has two detents.

the top outside corner of the seat then pull
the seat back upward until it latches into place. To
confirm the seat back is locked in the
upright position, try pulling it forward.

Warning: Ensure that the seat belt is
positioned correctly and that the
shoulder anchor is locked into position
before driving. Riding in a moving vehicle
with the seat belt positioned incorrectly
or with the shoulder anchor not locked
into position can reduce the
effectivenessof the seat belt in a collision.
To Release a Belt
Hold the belt near the buckle to prevent the
belt from retracting too quickly, then press the
button on the buckle. The belt retracts
automatically. Ensure there is no obstruction
that prevents the belt from fully retracting.
The belt should not hang loose. If a seat belt does not fully retract, contact Tesla.
Wearing Seat Belts When Pregnant Do not put the lap or shoulder sections of the
seat belt over the abdominal area. Wear the lap section of the belt as low as possible
across the hips, not the waist. Position the
shoulder portion of the belt between the
breasts and to the side of the abdomen. Consult your doctor for
specific guidance.
Warning: Never place anything between
you and the seat belt to cushion the
impact in the event of a collision.Seat Belt Pre-tensioners

Tesla immediately.

Seat Belts on page 170.
Seat Belt WarningsWarning: 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 a
collision occurs.Warning: Secure small children in a
suitable child safety seat (see Child
Safety Seats on page 30). Always follow

Single Strap - Third Row Seats
Note: If Model X is equipped with the optional
six seat interior, a center seating position is
not available in the second row.
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.
