Displaying Tire Pressures
Display tire pressures on the touchscreen by
touching
Controls > Service . The pressure of
each tire displays in the visualization of your
Model X. You can choose whether you want
to display tire pressures using Bar or PSI by
touching Controls > Display > Tire Pressure .
NOTE: You may need to drive briefly before
the visualization displays the tire pressure
values.
Maintaining Tire Pressures
Keep tires inflated to the pressures shown on
the Tire and Loading Information label, even if
it differs from the pressure printed on the tire
itself. The Tire and Loading Information label
is located on the center door pillar and is
visible when the front door is open.
If you are towing a trailer, do not use the tire
pressures printed on the Tire and Loading
Information Label. Instead, refer to the tire
pressures published in the towing section
(see
Towing and Accessories on page 90 ).
The Tire Pressure indicator
light on the instrument
panel alerts you if one or
more tires is under- or over-
inflated.
The Tire Pressure indicator light does not
immediately turn off when you adjust tire
pressure. After inflating the tire to the
recommended pressure, you must drive over
15 mph (25 km/h) for a short amount of time
to activate the Tire Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS), which turns off the Tire
Pressure indicator light.
If the indicator light flashes for one minute
whenever you power on Model X, a fault with
the TPMS is detected (see TPMS Malfunction
on page 217 ).
NOTE: Your vehicle’s tire pressures will drop
in cold ambient temperatures. If the TPMS
indicator light appears, inflate the tires before
driving. The tires will lose one PSI for every
10° F (6° C) drop in outside temperature.
Proper tire pressures help protect tires from
potholes and improve range when properly
inflated.
WARNING: Under-inflation is the most
common cause of tire failures and can
cause a tire to overheat, resulting in
severe tire cracking, tread separation,
or blowout, resulting in unexpected
loss of vehicle control and increased
risk of injury. Under-inflation also
reduces the vehicle's range and tire
tread life.
WARNING: Check tire pressures using
an accurate pressure gauge when tires
are cold. It takes only about one mile
(1.6 km) of driving to warm up the
tires sufficiently to affect tire
pressures. Parking the vehicle in direct
sunlight or in hot weather can also
affect tire pressures. If you must check
warm tires, expect increased
pressures. Do not let air out of warm
tires in an attempt to match
recommended cold tire pressures. A
hot tire at or below the recommended
cold tire inflation pressure is
dangerously under-inflated.
Checking and Adjusting Tire Pressures
Follow these steps when tires are cold and
Model X has been stationary for over three
hours:
1. Refer to the Tire and Loading Information
label located on the driver’s center door
pillar for the target tire pressure.
2. Remove the valve cap.
