Keys and Doors
When you stop Model X and engage the Park
gear, you can choose whether you want doors
to unlock or remain locked. To do so, touch
Controls > Vehicle > Unlock on Park. When
enabled, doors automatically unlock when you
engage the Park gear.
You can also unlock doors by pressing the
Park button on the end of the gear selector a
second time (for example, after pressing it one
time to engage the Park gear).
Note: If a door or trunk is still open when you
lock Model X, it locks when you close it.
Door Unlock Mode
You can choose to unlock only the driver's
door when you approach your vehicle carrying
your key or when you shift into Park. To do so,
touch Controls > Vehicle > Driver Door Unlock
Mode.
Child-Protection Lock
Model X has child-protection locks on the
falcon wing doors and liftgate to prevent them
from being opened using interior handles. Use
the touchscreen to turn child-protection locks
on or off. Touch Controls > Vehicle > Child-
Protection Lock.
Note: It is recommended that you turn child-
protection locks on whenever children are
seated in the rear seats.
Drive Away Locking
Model X automatically locks all doors
(including the trunks) whenever your driving
speed exceeds 8 km/h.
Walk-Away Locking
Doors and trunks automatically lock whenever
you walk away carrying the key or if the key is
otherwise not detected by your vehicle (not
present, dead battery, etc.).
To turn this feature on or off, touch Controls >
Vehicle > Walk-Away Door Lock.
Note: If Model X detects an authenticated key
for five minutes after you exit the vehicle and
close all doors, Walk-Away Lock disables and
will not lock when you leave with the key. You
will need to manually lock your vehicle until
after your next drive.
Note: If all doors are closed and you use the
key to unlock Model X, walk away locking is
temporarily suspended for one minute. If you
12
open a door within this minute, it does not re-
lock until after all the doors are closed and
you have walked away with the key.
Note: If your vehicle was unlocked using the
mobile app, it automatically locks after a short
period of time with all doors closed. If parking
in an area without cellular service, such as an
indoor parking garage, ensure that you have a
functional key fob readily available.
