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 various preferences you make while
customizing Model X.
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 desired profile. The
saved adjustments are automatically made.
NOTE: Valet mode is a built-in driver profile that limits
speed and restrict access to some Model X features
(see
Valet Mode on page 46).
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 at the
top of the touchscreen. Then choose the
driver, and Model X is adjusted based on
the settings that have been saved to the
chosen driver
profile.
Saved Settings
A subset of the settings that you choose from the
Controls window to customize your Model X are also
saved to your driver's
profile. The settings that are
associated with driver
profiles may vary depending on
the version of software currently installed on your
Model X.
Linking a Driver Profile to a Key
Fob
You can link a driver profile to a specific key fob to
allow Model X to automatically select the correct driver
profile when the linked key fob is detected as you
approach the vehicle and open the driver's door. To link
a driver
profile to a key fob, enter Model X with the key
fob and touch the driver profile icon at the top of the
touchscreen. Select the driver profile you would like to
link to the key, then touch Link to Key Fob.
NOTE: Model X only detects one key fob at a time. The
driver profile is linked to the key fob that is detected by
the vehicle at that time. Therefore, if you want to link
driver profiles to multiple keys, ensure that only the key
that you would like to link the driver
profile to is within
detection range while performing the linking procedure.
Move all other keys outside of the detection range (at
least three feet (one meter) away from Model X).
NOTE: Model X can support up to eight linked keys.
However, a driver profile can only be linked to one key.
To remove the link between a driver profile and key,
touch the driver
profile icon at the top of the
touchscreen. Select the driver profile, then touch the X
next to Linked to Key Fob.
Valet Mode
When Model X is in Valet mode, the following
restrictions apply:
• Speed is limited to 70 mph (113 km/h).
