2020 TESLA MODEL X instrument panel

Lane Assist
The Autopilot cameras and ultrasonic sensors
monitor the markers on the lane you are
driving in as well as the areas surrounding Model X for the presence of vehicles or other
objects.
When an object is detected in your blind spot
or close to the side of Model X (such as a
vehicle, guard rail, etc.), colored lines radiate
from the image of your vehicle on the
instrument panel. The location of the lines
correspond to the location of the detected object. The color of the lines (white, yellow,
orange, or red) represent the object

Speed Assist
How Speed Assist Works
Model X displays a speed limit on the
instrument panel and you can choose if and how you are warned when you exceed the
speed limit. Also, instead of using the detected speed limit, you can base warnings
on an arbitrary speed limit that you enter manually.
In situations where Model X is unable to
determine a speed limit, or if Speed Assist is
uncertain that an acquired speed limit is
accurate, the instrument panel may not display a speed limit sign and warnings do not
take effect.
If you set the speed limit warning to Display
(see Controlling Speed Assist on page 137)
and exceed the determined speed limit, the
speed limit sign on the instrument panel increases in size.
If you set the speed limit warning to Chime
(see Controlling Speed Assist on page 137)
and exceed the determined speed limit, the speed limit sign on the instrument panelincreases in size and Model X also sounds a
warning chime.
Note: Speed limit warnings go away after ten
seconds, or when Model X slows down below
the specified limit.
Warning:
Do not rely on Speed Assist to
determine the appropriate speed limit or driving speed. Always drive at a safe
speed based on traffic and road
conditions.
Controlling Speed Assist
To adjust the Speed Limit Warning setting,
touch Controls > Autopilot > Speed Limit
Warning , then choose one of these options:

In Call OptionsWhen a call is in progress, you can display the
call menu on the instrument panel by pressing
the top button on the right side of the steering wheel. Then roll the right scroll button
and choose an option (see Using Right
Steering Wheel Buttons on page 57). To adjust
the call volume, roll the steering wheel

Note: If Model X is locked, the charge port
light does not light up.
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

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 4 mph (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

Note: You can also use voice commands to
provide feedback to Tesla. Say "Note",
"Report", "Bug note", or "Bug report" (in the
English language) followed by brief comments
in your language of choice. Model X takes a
snapshot of its systems, including your current
location, vehicle diagnostic data, and screen
captures of the touchscreen and instrument
panel. Tesla periodically reviews these notes and uses them to continue improving Model X.
Reporting Safety Defects - US
If you believe that Model X has a defect which
could cause a crash or could cause injury or
death, you should immediately inform the
National Highway Traffic Safety Administration
(NHTSA) in addition to notifying Tesla.
If NHTSA receives similar complaints, it may
open an investigation. If it finds that a safety
defect exists in a group of vehicles, it may
order a recall and remedy campaign. However,
NHTSA cannot become involved in individual
problems between you, your dealer, or Tesla.
To contact NHTSA, you may call the Vehicle Safety Hotline toll-free at 1-888-327-4236(TTY: 1-800-424-9153); go to
