Note: If charging at a Tesla Supercharger, and
paid supercharging is potentially in
eect, the
charging screen also displays information
about your previous or current Supercharger
session (see Supercharger Usage Fees and
Idle Fees on page 161).
1. Charge status messages (such as
Charging Scheduled, Charging In
Progress) display here.
2. To adjust the charge limit, touch Set
Charge Limit, and drag the arrow to
change the charge limit setting. The
setting you choose applies to immediate
and scheduled charging sessions.
3.
Location-specific schedule. With Model X
in Park, set a
specific time to begin
charging at the current location. If, at the
scheduled time, Model X is not plugged in
at the location, charging starts as soon as
you plug it in provided you plug it in
within six hours of the scheduled time. If
plugged in after six hours, charging does
not start until the scheduled time on the
next day. To override this setting, touch
Start Charging or Stop Charging (see
item 4). When you set a scheduled
charging time, Model X displays the set
time on the instrument panel and
touchscreen.
4. Touch to open the charge port door or to
start (or stop) charging.
5. Charging rate per hour, estimated increase
in driving distance (or energy) achieved
so far in this charging session, current
supplied/available from the connected
power supply, and voltage supplied by the
charge cable.
6.
The current automatically sets to the
maximum current available from the
attached charge cable, unless it was
previously reduced to a lower level. If
needed, touch the up/down arrows to
change the current (for example, you may
want to reduce the current if you are
concerned about overloading a domestic
wiring circuit shared by other equipment).
It is not possible to set the charging
current to a level that exceeds the
maximum available from the attached
charge cable. When you change the
current, Model X remembers the location.
If you charge at the same location, you do
not need to change it again.
Note: For 3-phase charging, the available
current represents the current per phase
(up to 32 amps). During charging, the
right status
flag displays the 3-phase
symbol in front of the displayed current.
Note: If Model X automatically reduced
the current at a charging location because
of fluctuations in input power (see the
note in Charging Status on page 160),
Tesla recommends charging at the lower
current until the underlying problem is
resolved and the charging location can
provide consistent power.
