The map displays superchargers
only.The map displays superchargers,
destination chargers, and visited
chargers. In situations where a
charging location may not be
reachable based on your currently
available driving range, its
associated icon on the map
displays as semi-transparent.
When you are at risk of driving beyond the
range of known charging locations, the
touchscreen displays a message giving you the opportunity to display a list of charging
locations that are within range. When you
select a charging location from the list,
Model X provides navigation instructions and
the turn-by-turn direction list displays the
predicted amount of energy that will remain
when you arrive at the charging destination.
In addition to the message that displays when
you are at risk of driving beyond the range of
known charging locations, a warning symbol
displays on the range assurance icon:
Touch to display a search list of
charging locations that are
estimated to be within your driving
range. Then touch a location in the
search list to navigate to it.Based on the amount of energy
remaining in your Model X, there
are no known charging locations
within your driving range.

Predicting Energy Usage
When navigating to a destination, Model X
helps you anticipate your charging needs by
calculating the amount of energy that will
remain when you reach your destination. The
calculation is an estimate based on driving
and environmental factors such as predicted
speed and elevation changes. The touchscreen displays this calculation at the bottom of the
turn-by-turn direction list when you first
initiate the navigation route. Thereafter, you
can display it by touching the area at the bottom of the turn-by-turn direction list.
Throughout your route, Model X monitors
energy usage and updates the calculation as
needed. A popup warning displays at the
bottom of the turn-by-turn direction list in
these situations:

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 several market regions, Model X is equipped
with a Mobile Connector and the adapter(s)
you need to plug into commonly used power
outlets. When using the Mobile Connector,
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. Park so 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, Model X must be unlocked
or able to recognize your key before you can
disconnect the charge cable.
To disconnect the charge cable:
1. Press and hold the button on a Tesla
connector to release the latch. You can
also touch Stop Charging on the charging
screen (see Changing Charge Settings on
page 159).
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 when
you remove the charge cable.
Caution: Tesla strongly recommends
leaving Model X plugged in when not inuse. This maintains the Battery at the
optimum level of charge.
