Summon
• Align Model X within 12 meters of the parking space
so Model X can follow a straight path into or out of
the space in either Drive or Reverse.
• From outside the vehicle, initiate the parking
maneuver by touching Summon on the mobile app,
then holding down the Forward or Reverse button.
NOTE: If the Require Continuous Press setting is No,
you do not need to hold down the button, just press
and release.
NOTE: You can also initiate the parking maneuver
from inside the vehicle (see
Exiting the Vehicle on page
Summon shifts Model X into Drive or Reverse (based on
the direction you specified) and drives into or out of the
parking space. When parking is complete, or if an
obstacle is detected, Summon shifts Model X into Park.
Summon shifts Model X into Park when:
• Model X detects an obstacle in its driving path
(within the Bumper Clearance setting that you
specified).
• Summon has moved Model X the maximum distance
of 12 meters.
• You release the Forward or Reverse button (when
Require Continuous Press is turned on).
• You press any button to manually stop Summon.
If you used Summon to park Model X, you can then use
Summon to return Model X back to its original position
(provided Model X has remained in Park), or to the
maximum Summon Distance that you have specified
(whichever comes first). Simply specify the opposite
direction on the mobile app and Summon moves
Model X along the original path, provided no
obstructions have been introduced. If the ultrasonic
sensors detect an obstacle, Model X attempts to avoid
the obstacle while staying very close to its original path
(Summon does not steer around obstacles).
NOTE: To use Summon to move Model X multiple times
in the same direction (not to exceed the maximum of 12
meters, cancel Summon and then restart the parking
process using the same direction.
NOTE: Although Summon can move Model X a short
distance laterally to avoid an obstacle, it does not
attempt to steer around an obstacle to return Model X
to its original driving path. Only Smart Summon (if
equipped) can steer Model X around objects.
NOTE: Summon requires that Model X can detect a valid
key nearby.

WARNING: Model X cannot detect obstacles that
are located lower than the bumper, are very
narrow, or are hanging from a ceiling (for example,
bicycles). In addition, many unforeseen
circumstances can impair Summon's ability to
move in or out of a parking space and, as a result,
Summon may not move Model X appropriately.
Therefore, you must continually monitor the
vehicle's movement and its surroundings and
remain prepared to stop Model X at any time.
Operating Summon with the Key Fob
NOTE: Summon may not operate if the battery is low on
the key fob.
Follow these steps to park Model X from outside the
vehicle using the key fob:
1. On the touchscreen, ensure that Require Continuous
Press is disabled (touch Controls > Autopilot >
Customize Summon > Require Continuous Press).
2. With Model X in Park, stand within three meters and
press and hold the top center button on the key fob
(Lock/Unlock All button) until the hazard lights blink
continuously.
NOTE: The hazard lights flash once as Model X locks,
then within five seconds, Model X powers on and the
hazard lights flash continuously. Do not proceed to
the next step until the hazard lights are flashing. If,
after five seconds, the hazard lights are not flashing,
release the button on the key fob, move closer to
Model X, and try again. If Summon receives no further
input within ten seconds, Summon cancels.
3. Press the Front Trunk button on the key fob to move
Model X forward into the parking space, or press the
Rear Trunk button to reverse Model X into the
parking space.
