2019 TESLA MODEL X model Y

Software Updates
Loading New Software
Model X updates its software wirelessly,
providing new features throughout your term of ownership. Tesla recommends that you
install software updates as soon as they are
available. The first time you enter Model X
after an update is made available, a scheduling window displays on the touchscreen. The
scheduling window displays again at the end
of your first driving session.
Note: Some software updates can take up to
three hours to complete. Model X must be in
Park while the new software is being installed.
To ensure the fastest and most reliable
delivery of software updates, leave the Wi-Fi
turned on and connected whenever possible
(see Connecting to Wi-Fi on page 157).
Note: Software updates using cellular data are
also available if your vehicle is equipped with
premium connectivity.
Warning: Do not attempt to use the
vehicle while the software is being
updated. Vehicle functions, including
some safety systems, may be limited or disabled while a software update is inprogress and you could damage the
vehicle.
When a software update is available, a yellow
clock icon appears on the touchscreen

Charging Equipment
Charging equipment designed specifically to
charge your Model X is available from Tesla. A
Tesla Wall Connector, which installs in your
garage, is the fastest way to charge Model X
at home.
In most market regions, Model X is equipped with a Mobile Connector and the adapter(s)
needed to plug into the most commonly used power outlets. When using the MobileConnector, first plug the Mobile Connector
into the power outlet, and then plug in Model X. For more information about your
Mobile Connector, see the Mobile Connector
Owner

Battery Information
About the Battery
Model X has one of the most sophisticated
battery systems in the world. The most
important way to preserve the Battery is to LEAVE YOUR VEHICLE PLUGGED IN when
you are not using it. This is particularly
important if you are not planning to drive Model X for several weeks. When plugged in,
Model X wakes up when needed to
automatically maintain a charge level that
maximizes the lifetime of the Battery.
Note: When left idle and unplugged, your
vehicle periodically uses energy from the Battery for system tests and recharging the
12V battery when necessary.
There is no advantage to waiting until the

Charging Instructions
Opening the Charge Port The charge port is located on the left side of
Model X, behind a door that is part of the rear
tail light assembly. Before charging, park
Model X to ensure that the charge cable easily reaches the charge port.
With Model X unlocked (or a recognized key is
within range) and in Park, press and release
the button on the Tesla charge cable to open the charge port door.
You can also open the charge port door using
any of these methods:

If the charge port light turns red while
charging, a fault is detected. Check the instrument panel or touchscreen for a
message describing the fault. A fault can
occur due to something as common as a power outage. If a power outage occurs,
charging resumes automatically when power
is restored.
Note: When charging, particularly at high
currents, the refrigerant compressor and fan
operate as needed to keep the Battery cool.
Therefore, it is normal to hear sounds during charging.
Note: Air conditioning performance is
generally not affected by charging. However,
under certain circumstances (for example, you
are charging at high currents during a
particularly warm day), the air coming from
the vents may not be as cool as expected and
a message displays on the instrument panel.
This is normal behavior and ensures that the Battery stays within an optimum temperature
range while charging to support longevity and
optimum performance.Warning: Never spray liquid at a high
velocity (for example, if using a pressure
washer) towards the charge port while
charging. Failure to follow these
instructions can result in serious injury or
damage to the vehicle, charging
equipment, or property.
Stopping Charging
Stop charging at any time by disconnecting
the charge cable or touching Stop Charging
on the touchscreen.
Note: To prevent unauthorized unplugging of
the charge cable, the charge cable latch remains locked and Model X must be unlockedor able to recognize your key before you can
disconnect the charge cable.
To disconnect the charge cable:
1. Press and hold the button on the
connector handle to release the latch.
Alternatively, unlock the vehicle by
opening a door, using a key fob, or
touching Stop Charging on the
touchscreen. These methods unlock the
charge port as well.
2. Pull the connector from the charge port.
3. Push the charge port door closed.
Note: If Model X is equipped with a motorized
charge port door, it automatically closes shortly after you remove the charge cable.
Caution: Tesla strongly recommends
leaving Model X plugged in when not in use. This maintains the Battery at the
optimum level of charge.
Manually Releasing Charge Cable
If the usual methods for releasing a charge
cable from the charge port (using the charge
handle release button, touchscreen, or mobile
app) do not work, carefully follow these steps:
1. Ensure that Model X is not actively
charging by displaying the charging
screen on the touchscreen. If necessary,
touch Stop Charging .
2. Open the rear trunk.
3. Pull the charge port

3.The current automatically sets to the
maximum current available from the
attached charge cable, unless it was
previously reduced to a lower level. If
needed, touch - or + to change the current
(for example, you may want to reduce the
current if you are concerned about
overloading a domestic wiring circuit
shared by other equipment). It is not
possible to set the charging current to a
level that exceeds the maximum available
from the attached charge cable. When
you change the current, Model X
remembers the location. If you charge at
the same location, you do not need to change it again.
Note: For 3-phase charging (if applicable
in your region), the available current
represents the current per phase (up to 32 amps). During charging, the right status
