Creating a Driver Profile
When you first adjust the driver’s seat,
steering wheel, or driver’s side mirror, the
touchscreen prompts you to create a driver
profile to save these adjustments. Your profile
also saves some of the preferences you make
using the touchscreen's Controls window.
To add a new driver profile, touch
the driver profile icon at the top of
the touchscreen. Then touch Add
New Driver, type the driver's name
and touch Create Profile. Follow the
onscreen instructions to save the
seating position to the driver profile.
You can also check the Use Easy
Entry checkbox if you want to save
(or use existing) Easy Entry settings
(described below) in which the
driver's seat and the steering wheel
are automatically adjusted to make it
easy to enter and exit Model X.
If you change the position of the steering
wheel, driver’s seat, or driver’s side mirror
after you have saved or chosen a driver
profile, the touchscreen prompts you to save
the new position or restore the previously
saved position (other settings are
automatically saved). To change a setting
without saving or restoring, just ignore the
prompt.
To adjust Model X based on a driver’s profile,
touch the driver profile icon and choose the
driver name. The saved adjustments are
automatically made.
Note: Valet mode is a built-in driver profile
used to limit speed and restrict access to
some Model X features (see
on
page 53).
Note: To stop automatic adjustments that are
in process based on a driver's profile, touch
Stop on the Driver Profile dropdown menu.
Automatic adjustments also stop if you
manually adjust a seat, mirror or the steering
wheel.
Easy Entry
You can define an Easy Entry setting that
moves the steering wheel and driver's seat to
make it easy to enter and exit Model X. Any
driver can use the Easy Entry setting by
associating it with their driver's profile. When
the Easy Entry setting is associated with a
driver's profile, the steering wheel and driver's
seat automatically adjust when the park gear
is engaged and the driver's seat belt is
unbuckled, allowing an easy exit from the
vehicle. When returning to the vehicle and
stepping on the brake pedal, settings
automatically adjust back to the settings used
by the most recent driver profile (or based on
the key if it's linked to a driver profile).
To use Easy Entry with a driver profile, ensure
the Use Easy Entry box is checked.
Warning: Never use Easy Entry to move
the driver's seat to the full rearward
position when a child safety seat is
installed on a rear seat located behind the
driver's seat. With reduced clearance, the
movement of the seat may impact a
child's legs, cause injury, or dislodge the
seat.
Restoring a Driver’s Profile
To adjust Model X based on a
driver’s profile, touch the driver
profile icon on the touchscreen's
status bar. Then choose the driver
and Model X is adjusted based on
the settings that have been saved to
the chosen driver profile.
See What's Saved
To see what settings are associated with a
driver profile, touch the driver profile icon on
the top of the touchscreen. Then touch See
what’s saved. A popup window lists all the
settings that are saved to driver profiles.
Note: The settings that are associated with
driver profiles may vary depending on the
version of software currently installed on your
Model X.
