2019 TESLA MODEL X brake

Safety &
SecurityYou can manually apply and release the PARKING BRAKE see Parking Brake
on page 73), POWER OFF the vehicle (see Powering Off on page 58), limit
the acceleration and max speed (see Speed Limit Mode on page 132), and
turn the following features on or off:

example, the suspension does not lower if a
door is open.
Note: Your chosen Suspension Lowering and
Adaptive Suspension Damping settings are
saved to your driver profile (see Driver Profiles
on page 50).
Auto-Raising Suspension Auto-raising suspension saves you from
manually having to raise the suspension every
time you arrive at a frequently-used location
where you have previously raised the
suspension. Whenever you raise the
suspension to HIGH or VERY HIGH , Model X
saves the location. When you return to the
saved location, Model X raises the suspension and the instrument panel displays this
message:
Note: When returning to a saved location and
driving faster than the High and Very High
suspension settings allow, the suspension
does not raise until Model X slows down.
Note: After leaving a saved location, the
suspension may not lower until you are driving
faster than the speed threshold at which the
suspension lowers.
Note: If Model X reaches a saved location and
the existing suspension setting is already
higher than the level that has been saved for
that location, the ride height is not adjusted.
To remove an auto-raising location
If you do not want the suspension to auto- raise at a saved location, touch the X in the
auto-raising location status message that
displays at a saved location. Doing so removes
the auto-raise location and the suspension no
longer raises automatically when you arrive at
the location.
Note: Manually lowering the suspension to
STANDARD , LOW , or VERY LOW while at a
saved location also removes the auto-raising
location.
Jack Mode
Before jacking or lifting, set the suspension to
Jack mode to prevent the self-leveling that
occurs even when Model X is powered off.
Press the brake pedal, then touch Controls >
Suspension > Jack .
To deactivate, touch Jack again.
Note: Jack mode automatically cancels when
you drive over 7 km/h.
Note: Model X also sets Jack mode
automatically if it detects that the vehicle
cannot lower to its target height, or if it
detects that an object is supporting the
vehicle

Disable the Self-Leveling AirSuspension System
If Model X is equipped with the air suspension
system, it automatically self-levels, even when
power is off. To prevent damage, you must
activate Jack Mode to disable self-leveling:
1. Touch Controls > Suspension on the
touchscreen.
2. Press the brake pedal, then touch Very
High to maximize height.
3. Touch Jack.When Jack Mode is active, Model X
displays this red indicator light on
the instrument panel, along with a
message telling you that active
suspension is disabled.
Note: Jack Mode cancels when driving speed
exceeds 7 kph.
Warning: Failure to activate Jack Mode on
a vehicle equipped with the air
suspension system can result in the
vehicle becoming loose during transport,
which may cause significant damage.
Activate Transport Mode
Transport Mode keeps the parking brake
disengaged while winching Model X onto a
