Climate Controls - Tesla MODEL X 2021 Owner's Manual

Overview of Climate Controls
Climate controls are available at the bottom of the touchscreen. By default, climate control is set
to Auto, which maintains optimum comfort in all but the most severe weather conditions. When
you adjust the cabin temperature while in the Auto setting, the system automatically adjusts the
heating, air conditioning, air distribution, and fan speed to maintain the cabin at your selected
temperature. Touch the display temperature at the bottom of the touchscreen to access the
main climate controls screen, where you can adjust your climate preferences. You can revert
back to Auto at any time by touching Auto. Touch the power button on the main climate
controls screen to toggle on or off. For quick access to common controls, touch < or > to
display the climate popup.
NOTE: The climate control system is powered by the high voltage Battery. Therefore, prolonged
use decreases driving range.
WARNING: To avoid burns resulting from prolonged use, individuals who have peripheral
neuropathy, or whose capacity to feel pain is limited because of diabetes, age,
neurological injury, or some other condition, should exercise caution when using the
climate control system and seat heaters.
