Align the connector to the charge port and
insert fully. When the connector is properly
inserted, charging begins automatically after
Model X:
•
Engages a latch that holds the connector
in place;
• Shifts into Park (if it was in any other
drive mode);
• Heats or cools the Battery, if needed. If
the Battery requires heating or cooling,
you may notice a delay before charging
begins.
NOTE: Whenever Model X is plugged in but
not actively charging, it draws energy from
the wall outlet instead of using energy stored
in the Battery. For example, if you are sitting
in
Model X and using the touchscreen while
parked and plugged in,
Model X draws energy
from the wall outlet instead of the Battery.
CAUTION: The connector end of the
charge cable can damage the paint if
you drop it onto Model X.
