Interior Overview

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

Sun Visors
The sun visors in Model X are held in place by
magnets. To protect occupants from sunlight
coming through the windshield, release the sun visor from the pillar and pivot it toward
the rear view mirror until the magnet snaps into place. While held in place by the magnet,
you can adjust the sun visor and lower the extender to provide maximum shade.
To expose the vanity mirror, lower the visorextender then lower the mirror cover. While
the cover is lowered, the mirror is exposed and
lights are illuminated.
To protect front seat occupants from sunlight
coming through the side window, lower the
sun visor from the pillar then lower the visor
extender.

Seating and Safety Restraints
Front and Rear Seats
Correct Driving Position The seat, head support, seat belt and airbagswork together to maximize your safety. Using
these correctly ensures greater protection.
Position the seat so you can wear the seat belt correctly, while being as far away from the
front airbag as possible:

Adjusting Second Row MonopostSeats
A Model X equipped with monopost seats can
accommodate two or three passengers in the
second row, depending on the option chosen
at time of purchase. There are two ways to
adjust the position of these seats:

Warning: Riding in a moving vehicle with
the seat back reclined can result in
serious injuries in a collision, as you could
slide under the lap belt or be propelled into the seat belt. Ensure the backs of
occupied seats are reclined no more than 30 degrees when the vehicle is moving.
Folding Second Row Seat Backs
(Bench Seats)
The second row seat backs on bench seats
can be folded fully forward so they lay

After using the third row ingress button toaccess third row seats, simply press the button
again to return the seats to their normal
position.Warning: For vehicles with third row
seats, do not use the third row ingress
button located on the backrest of a second row outboard seat when a child is
seated in the second row. Using the
button tilts and moves the seats forward
and can squeeze the occupant. Do not
rely on Model X to recognize or
accommodate occupants seated in the
vehicle while using this button. Use this button only when the second row seats
are unoccupied.
