Exterior Overview
Overview3

are opening or closing the associatedfalcon wing door, you MUST keep your
hands (or any object) away from the opening edge of the front door. When a falcon wing door passes by a partially
opened front door, the distance between
the two doors is very narrow. Objects,
such as hands or fingers, placed in this
area, are not detected by sensors and can
therefore become pinched between the
doors. To avoid bodily injury, it is a good practice to keep your hands away from
the front door whenever you are opening
or closing a falcon wing door.Warning: When opening or closing a
falcon wing door, it is important to
proactively monitor the movement of the door to ensure that it does not come into
contact with a person or object. Failure to
do so can cause serious damage or injury.Caution: Remove accumulation of snow
or ice before opening a falcon wing door.
Snow can get inside Model X and ice can
prevent the door from opening.Caution: In rainy weather, leaving a falcon
wing open while opening the liftgate can
result in rain water falling from the liftgate
into the rear seating area.
Note: Falcon wing doors open only when
Model X is stationary.
Obstacle Detection
A falcon wing door stops moving when one of
its many sensors detects an obstacle, or when
the door senses resistance because it has made contact with an object. The touchscreen
displays a warning. In these cases, provided it
is appropriate to continue opening or closing
the falcon wing door, you can override obstacle detection by pressing and holding
the switch located on the door pillar, or
touching and holding the associated door icon on the touchscreen.
When Model X detects a low ceiling (for
example, in a garage), it opens the falcon wing
doors (and trunk) to a lower height, even if no
obstacle is detected. You can override this height and open the doors higher by touching
the associated door icon on the touchscreen
( Controls > Quick Controls ). The touchscreen
displays a message asking you if you always
want to open the doors to the higher height at
this location, and saves your choice. The next
time you open the falcon wing doors at this
location, Model X opens them to the height you saved.Warning: Before overriding a falcon wing
door

When you stop Model X and engage the Park
gear, you can choose whether you want doors to unlock or remain locked. To do so, touchControls > Vehicle > Unlock on Park . When
enabled, doors automatically unlock when you
engage the Park gear.
You can also unlock doors by pressing the
Park button on the end of the gear selector a second time (for example, after pressing it one
time to engage the Park gear).
Note: If a door or trunk is still open when you
lock Model X, it locks when you close it.
Door Unlock Mode You can choose to unlock only the driver

Rear Trunk
Opening
To open the rear trunk, do one of the
following:

Adjusting the Opening Height
You can adjust the opening height of the
powered liftgate to make it easier to reach:
1. Open the liftgate, then manually lower or
raise it to the desired opening height.
2. Press and hold the button on the
underside of the liftgate for two seconds
until you hear a confirmation chime.
3.Confirm that you have set it to the desired
height by closing the liftgate, then
reopening it.
Accessing the Cargo Area To access the cargo area inside the Model X
rear trunk, push down on the ridged portion of the handle of the cargo cover and then pull
up. You can then adjust the position of the
cargo cover or completely remove it from
Model X.
Caution: Never load more than 175 lbs (80
kg) on the rear load

the Door Open indicator light. The
image of your Model X on the
touchscreen also displays the open front trunk.Warning: Before opening or closing the
hood, it is important to check that the area around the hood is free of obstacles
(people and objects). Failure to do so
may result in damage or serious injury.
Note: The front trunk locks whenever closed
and you lock Model X using either the
touchscreen or externally using the key or
mobile app, you leave Model X carrying your key (if Walk-Away Locking on page 15 is
turned on), or when Valet mode is active (see Valet Mode on page 51).

in the areas shown (in green), then press
down firmly to engage the latches.

hood to ensure that it is fully closed.Caution: To prevent damage:

front trunk when a person is inside.Warning: Care should be taken to ensure
that objects inside the front trunk do not
bump against the release button, causing the trunk to accidentally open.
