IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
This document contains important instructions and warnings that must be followed when handling Model X in an emergency situation.
WARNINGS
Warning: Always use appropriate tools, such as a hydraulic cutter, and always wear appropriate personal protective equipment
(PPE) when cutting Model X. Failure to follow these instructions can result in serious injury or death.
Warning: Regardless of the disabling procedure you use, ALWAYS ASSUME THAT ALL HIGH VOLTAGE COMPONENTS ARE
ENERGIZED! Cutting, crushing, or touching high voltage components can result in serious injury or death.
Warning: After deactivation, the high voltage circuit requires 2 minutes to de-energize.
Warning: The supplemental restraint system (SRS) control unit has a backup power supply with a discharge time of approximately
ten seconds. Do not touch the SRS control unit within 10 seconds of an airbag or pre-tensioner deployment.
Warning: Handling a submerged vehicle without appropriate PPE can result in serious injury or death.
Warning: When fire is involved, consider the entire vehicle energized. Always wear full PPE, including a self-contained breathing
apparatus (SCBA).
Warning: When cutting the first responder loop, double cut the loop to remove an entire section. This eliminates the risk of the cut
wires accidentally reconnecting.
Warning: Never cut the high tension springs attached to the falcon wing doors. These springs might cause portions of the door to
rise rapidly if the weight of the doors is reduced through the removal process. Serious injury or death can result from cutting or
rapidly releasing the high tension springs.

HIGH VOLTAGE BATTERY
Model X is equipped with a floor-mounted 400 volt lithium-ion high voltage battery. Never breach the high voltage battery when lifting
from under the vehicle. When using rescue tools, pay special attention to ensure that you do not breach the floor pan. Refer to Lifting
the Vehicle on page 22 for instructions on how to properly lift the vehicle.

DC-DC CONVERTER AND FRONT JUNCTION BOX
High voltage is present at the DC-DC converter and front junction box, as outlined in red. The DC-DC converter transforms the high
voltage current from the high voltage battery to low voltage to charge the Model X 12 volt battery. The front junction box provides high
voltage current to various components, such as the battery heater, air conditioning compressor, and cabin heater. Use caution when
cutting in this area during a dash lift and dash roll procedure. Use work-around techniques, if necessary.

CHARGER
Model X has one charger located inside the left-hand side quarter panel. This charger converts alternating current (AC) from a
charging station to direct current (DC) for charging the high voltage battery. It also routes high voltage to the rear HVAC, if equipped.
The high voltage junction box, integrated into the charger, routes any surplus energy from regenerative braking back to the high
voltage battery.
