Opening Doors from the Interior
To open a front door, pull the interior door
handle toward you.
You can also use the touchscreen to open and
close doors when inside Model X. Touch
Controls > Doors, then choose the door you
want to open or close. In addition, if Model X
is equipped with the premium upgrades
package, when you press the brake pedal, the
driver's door automatically closes.
Note: To prevent children from opening falcon
wing doors using the interior handles, use the
touchscreen, Controls > Settings > Doors &
Locks > Child Protection Lock, to turn on the
child-protection locks (see Child-protection
Lock on page 10).
Opening and Closing Front Doors
from Outside Model X
Model X doors are electrically powered. When
you approach Model X carrying the key, you
can specify whether just the driver's door
unlocks or all doors unlock. On the
touchscreen, touch Controls > Settings >
Doors & Locks > DOOR UNLOCK MODE and
choose DRIVER or ALL.
If equipped, you can also set the driver's door
to unlock and open automatically upon your
approach. The door partially opens (between
20° and 45° depending on obstacles detected
by sensors). Touch Controls > Settings >
Doors & Locks > AUTOMATIC DOORS > ON.
To open the driver's door when this setting is
on, double-click the key's lock/unlock button.
To open the front passenger's door, double-
click the key's lock/unlock button again.
Caution: The front doors may not fully
open or close automatically when parked
on a very steep hill. Never rely on Model X
to fully open or close the doors for you
when parked on a steep hill.
Note:
Depending on date of manufacture and
options chosen at time of purchase, your
Model X may not be equipped with
AUTOMATIC DOORS.
Whenever a door is open, the Door
Open indicator displays on the
instrument panel. The image of the
Model X on the touchscreen Controls
window also shows which door or
trunk is open.
To close doors, you can:
manually push them shut
use the touchscreen (Controls > Doors)

is set to OFF, triple-click the key's lock/
unlock button (this closes and locks all
doors and trunks)

is set to ON, single-click the key's lock/
unlock button (this closes and locks all
