Charging Status
The following illustration is provided for demonstration purposes only and may vary slightly
depending on the software version and market region.
1. Charging status information. For example, when Model X is charging, it displays the time
remaining until fully charged at the currently selected charge level. When a charging session is
scheduled, it displays when charging starts.
2. Total estimated driving distance (or energy) available. To choose between displaying distance
or energy percentage, touch Controls > Settings > Language & Units > Energy & Charging.
Note: A portion of the battery image may appear blue. This indicates that a small portion of
the energy stored in the battery is not available because the battery is cold. This is normal and
no reason for concern. When the battery warms up, the blue portion no longer displays.
3. Charging rate per hour.
4. Estimated increase in driving distance (or energy) achieved so far in this charging session.
5. Current supplied/available from the connected power supply (see Changing Charge Settings
on page 158).
If connected to a 3-phase power supply, the available current represents the
current per phase and the 3-phase symbol displays.
6. Voltage supplied by the charge cable.
Note: If Model X is charging and detects unexpected fluctuations in input power, the charging
current is automatically reduced by 25%. For example, a 40 amp current is reduced to 30 amps.
This automatic current reduction increases robustness and safety in situations when an external
problem exists (for example, a home wiring system, receptacle, adapter or cord is unable to meet
its rated current capacity). As a precaution, when Model X automatically reduces current, it saves
the reduced current at the charging location. Although you can manually increase it, Tesla
recommends charging at the lower current until the underlying problem is resolved and the
charging location can provide consistent power.
