shopping, and Wi-Fi. On a supercharger popup, touch
an amenity icon to search the surrounding area for
the associated amenity.

NOTE: When navigating to a Supercharger (or third-
party fast charger in some regions), Model X
preconditions the Battery to prepare for charging.
This ensures you arrive with an optimal Battery
temperature, reducing the amount of time it takes to
charge. In some circumstances (such as cold
weather), it is normal for the motor(s) and
components to make noise as it generates heat to
warm the Battery (see
Supercharging on page
Predicting Energy Usage
When navigating to a destination, Model X helps you
anticipate your charging needs by calculating the
amount of energy that remains when you reach your
destination. The calculation is an estimate based on
driving style (predicted speed, etc.) and environmental
factors (elevation changes, temperature, etc.). When
navigating, the map displays this calculation at the
bottom of the expanded turn-by-turn direction list (see
Navigating to a Destination on page
turn-by-turn direction list is compressed, touch the top
of the list to expand it.
Throughout your route, Model X monitors energy usage
and updates the calculation. A popup warning displays
at the bottom of the turn-by-turn direction list in these
situations:
• A yellow warning displays when you have very little
energy remaining to reach your destination, requiring
you to drive slowly to conserve energy. For tips on
conserving energy, see
page 85.
• A red warning displays when you must charge to
reach your destination.
To determine if you have enough energy for a round trip,
touch the battery icon at the bottom of the turn-by-turn
direction list to display an estimated calculation of your
round trip energy usage.
Online Routing
Model X detects real-time traffic conditions and
automatically adjusts the estimated driving and arrival
times. In situations where traffic conditions will delay
your estimated time of arrival and an alternate route is
available, the navigation system can reroute you to your
destination. You can also specify the minimum number
of minutes that must be saved before you are rerouted.
