displaying the charging screen on the touchscreen. If
necessary, touch Stop Charging.

CAUTION:
Use the release cable only in situations
where you can not release the charge cable using
the usual methods. Continuous use can damage
the release cable or charging equipment.
WARNING:
Do not perform this procedure when
your vehicle is charging, or if any orange high
voltage conductors are exposed. Failure to follow
these instructions can result in electric shock and
serious injury or damage to the vehicle. If you
have any uncertainty as to how to safely perform
this procedure, contact your nearest Service
Center.
Changing Charge Settings
The charging screen displays on the touchscreen
whenever the charge port door is open. To display the
charging screen at any time:
Touch the Apps icon, then touch the
charging icon.
NOTE:
The following illustration is provided for
demonstration purposes only and may vary slightly
depending on software version and market region.
NOTE: If charging at a Tesla Supercharger, and paid
supercharging is potentially in eect, the charging
screen also displays information about your previous or
current Supercharger session (see Supercharger Usage
Fees and Idle Fees on page 176).
NOTE: To reduce congestion at high-usage
supercharger sites, you may be automatically limited to
a maximum charge of 80% when not using Trip Planner
(see
Trip Information on page 75). You can manually
increase the limit by tapping “Set Limit” on the
touchscreen or mobile app.
1.
Charge status messages (such as Charging
Scheduled, Charging) display here.
2.
To adjust the charge limit, touch Set Limit, and drag
the arrow to change the charge limit setting. The
setting you choose applies to immediate and
scheduled charging sessions.
3.
The current automatically sets to the maximum
current available from the attached charge cable,
unless it was previously reduced to a lower level. If
needed, touch
- or + to change the current (for
example, you may want to reduce the current if you
are concerned about overloading a domestic wiring
circuit shared by other equipment). It is not possible
to set the charging current to a level that exceeds
the maximum available from the attached charge
cable. When you change the current,
Model X
remembers the location. If you charge at the same
location, you do not need to change it again.
