To use a key card to unlock or lock Model X, position the
card as shown and tap it against the card reader located
approximately one third the way up of the driver's side
door pillar. When Model X detects the key card, the
exterior lights flash, the mirrors unfold or fold (if Fold
Mirrors is on), the horn sounds (if Lock
Confirmation
Sound is on), and the doors unlock or lock.
NOTE: You may need to physically touch the wireless
phone charger or driver's side door pillar with the key
card, and you may need to hold it against the
transmitter for one or two seconds.
Once inside, power up Model X by pressing the brake
pedal within two minutes of scanning the key card (see
Starting and Powering O on page 63). If you wait
longer than two minutes, you must re-authenticate by
placing the key card near the card reader located in the
wireless phone charger on the center console. When
your key card is detected, your two minute
authentication period restarts.
NOTE: If enabled, Walk-Away Door Lock (see Walk-
Away Door Lock on page 22) operates only when you
walk away using a phone key or passive key fob. When
you walk away carrying your key card, Model X does not
automatically unlock/lock.
Key Fob
NOTE: Depending on market region, vehicle
configuration, or date of manufacture, your vehicle may
not come with a key fob. Go to http://shop.tesla.com for
more information.
You can quickly familiarize yourself with the key fob by
thinking of it as a miniature version of Model X, with the
Tesla badge representing the front. The key has buttons
that feel like softer areas on the surface.
