Service Intervals
Regular maintenance is the key to ensuring
the continued reliability and eciency of your
Model X.
Maintain the correct tire pressures, and take
Model X to Tesla at the regularly scheduled
maintenance intervals of every 12 months, or
every 12,500 miles (20,000 km), whichever
comes
first. It is also important to perform the
daily and monthly checks described below.
Model X must be serviced by Tesla-certified
technicians. Damages or failures caused by
maintenance or repairs performed by non-
Tesla
certified technicians are not covered by
the warranty.
Daily Checks
• Check the Battery’s charge level,
displayed on the instrument panel.
• Check that all exterior lights, horn, turn
signals, and wipers and washers are
working.
• Check the operation of the brakes,
including the parking brake.
• Check the operation of the seat belts
(see Seat Belts on page 21).
• Look for
fluid deposits underneath
Model X that might indicate a leak. It is
normal for a small pool of water to form
(caused by the air conditioning system’s
dehumidifying process).
Monthly Checks
• Check the condition and pressure of each
tire (see Tire Care and Maintenance on
page 145).
• Check washer
fluid level and top up if
necessary (see Topping Up Washer Fluid
on page 160).
• Check that the air conditioning system is
operating (see Climate Controls on page
112).
Warning: Contact Tesla immediately if you
notice any significant or sudden drop in
fluid levels or uneven tire wear.
Fluid Replacement Intervals
Do not change or top up Battery coolant and
brake fluid yourself. Tesla service technicians
replace
fluids at the regularly scheduled
service intervals:
• Brake
fluid. Every 2 years or 25,000 miles
(40,000 km), whichever comes first.
• Battery coolant. Every 4 years or
50,000 miles (80,000 km), whichever
comes first.
Note: Any damage from opening the Battery
coolant reservoir is excluded from the
warranty.
High Voltage Safety
Your Model X has been designed and built
with safety as a priority. However, be aware of
these precautions to protect yourself from the
risk of injury inherent in all high-voltage
systems:
• Read and follow all instructions provided
on the labels that are attached to Model X.
These labels are there for your safety.
• The high voltage system has no user-
serviceable parts. Do not disassemble,
remove or replace high voltage
components, cables or connectors. High
voltage cables are colored orange for easy
identification.
• If an accident occurs, do not touch any
high voltage wiring, connectors, or
components connected to the wiring.
• In the unlikely event that a
fire occurs,
immediately contact your local
fire
emergency responders.
Warning: Always disconnect the charge
cable before working underneath
Model X, even if charging is not in
progress.
Warning: Keep your hands and clothing
away from cooling fans. Some fans
operate even when Model X is powered
o.
Caution: Some fluids (battery acid,
Battery coolant, brake fluid, windshield
washer additives, etc.) used in motor
vehicles are poisonous and should not be
inhaled, swallowed, or brought into
contact with open wounds. For your
safety, always read and follow instructions
printed on
fluid containers.
