Tesla MODEL X 2021 - Lights

Controlling Lights
Touch Controls > Lights to control the lights.
NOTE: You can also access an abbreviated
lights menu while driving by touching the
Auto High Beam button on the steering yoke.
A lights menu displays on the touchscreen,
providing quick access to headlight controls.
In addition to the lights that you can control
from the touchscreen, Model X has
convenience lights that turn on and o
automatically based on what you are doing.
For example, interior lights, marker lights, tail
lights, and puddle lights turn on when you
unlock
Model X, when you open a door, and
when you shift into Park. They turn
o
automatically after a minute or two or when
you shift or lock Model X. Use these settings
to control exterior and interior lights:
Exterior Lights
Exterior lights (headlights, tail lights, side
marker lights, parking lights, and license plate
lights) are set to
AUTO each time you start
Model X. When set to AUTO, exterior lights
automatically turn on when driving in low
lighting conditions. If you change to a
dierent setting, lights always revert to AUTO
on your next drive.
Touch one of these options to change the
exterior light setting:
•
OFF: Exterior lights turn o until you
manually turn them back on or until the
next time you drive. If daytime running
lights are required in your region, the
exterior lights used for this purpose are
always on when Drive is engaged.
• PARKING: Only the side marker lights,
parking lights, tail lights and license plate
lights turn on.
NOTE: If daytime running lights are
required in your region, the exterior lights
used for this purpose are always on
whenever Drive or Reverse is engaged.
•
ON: Exterior lights turn on.
CAUTION:
Ensure the headlights and
rear lights are on during low visibility
conditions (for example, when it is
dark, foggy, snowy, or the road is wet,
etc.). The rear tail lights are o while
daytime running lights are on. Failure
to do so can cause damage or serious
injury.
NOTE:
To comply with local trac regulations
when crossing from a left-hand trac region
to a right-hand trac region, and vice versa,
headlights should be adjusted. If you plan to
drive to a region that requires headlights to
be adjusted, schedule a service appointment
using the mobile app.
Fog Lights
If equipped, touch to turn the fog lights on or
o. Fog lights operate only when low beam
headlights are on. When headlights are
turned
o, fog lights also turn o.
The front fog indicator
displays on the instrument
panel whenever the optional
front fog lights are on.
NOTE: Depending on the market region and
vehicle options, your vehicle may not be
equipped with front and/or rear fog lights.
Interior Lights
Turn the interior dome (map) lights on or o.
If set to AUTO, all interior dome lights turn on
when you unlock
Model X, open a door upon
exiting, or shift into Park.
NOTE: You can also manually turn an
individual dome light on or
o by pressing its
lens. If you turn a dome light on, it turns o
when Model X powers o. If Model X was
already powered
o when you manually
turned the light on, it turns o after 60
minutes.
Ambient Lights
When enabled, interior ambient lights turn on
whenever the headlights are on.
