Climate Controls Adjusting Climate Control Settings To adjust individual settings to suit your preferences, touch the fan icon at the bottom of the touchscreen to access individual climate control settings. If Model X is equipped with six or seven seats, a rear climate controls bar also appears immediately below the above window. See Rear Cabin Climate Controls (6 and 7 seat vehicles only) on page 143. In addition to the settings shown, if Model X is in Park, the Keep Climate On and Dog Mode setting displays when you touch the fan icon when the vehicle is in Park (see Keep Climate On and Dog Mode on page 144). 1. Adjust the speed of the fan. Note: Adjusting the fan speed may change your setting for how air is drawn into Model X in order to decrease or increase airflow. For example, if you set the fan speed at the highest setting when the air circulation is set to draw in outside air, the setting may switch to recirculating the air to achieve the high air flow. 2. Touch to turn off the climate control system and close the climate controls popup window. Note: The popup window also closes if you touch the map, choose Media Player or an app, or display a controls window, even if the climate control system is turned on. 3. Turn the air conditioning on and off, respectively. Turning it off reduces cooling, but saves energy. 4. Choose where air flows into the cabin (windshield, face-level, or foot-level vents). You can choose more than one location. Note: When air is directed to the foot-level vents, approximately one third of the air continues to flow to the windshield vents to assist in defogging. However, when air is directed to the face-level vents, air does not flow to the windshield because the air flowing through the face- level vents can assist in defogging the windshield. 5. If your Model X is equipped with the Bioweapon Defense Mode feature, the HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air) filter ensures the best possible quality of air inside the cabin. When selected, outside air is filtered through the medical-grade HEPA filter in addition to the secondary filtration systems. The HEPA filter is extremely effective at removing particles, including pollution, allergens, bacteria, pollen, mold spores, and viruses. Both the HEPA filter and the secondary filtration system also contain activated carbon to remove a broad spectrum of odors and gases. When you engage Bioweapon Defense Mode, the fan operates at the highest speed. In addition, the positive pressure inside the cabin minimizes the amount of outside air that can leak into the vehicle. Note: Some gases, such as carbon monoxide, are not effectively removed by activated carbon. 142 Model X Owner's Manual
