Using Summon
Note: Summon is a BETA feature. Summon is designed and intended for use only on a private
residential property where the surrounding area is familiar and predictable. When using Summon,
you must continually monitor the vehicle. It is the driver's responsibility to use this feature safely,
responsibly, and as intended.
With Summon, you can move Model 3 in and out of a parking space from outside the vehicle using
the mobile app. You can also customize Summon to park or retrieve Model 3 with a single touch of
a button and to initiate parking automatically after you double-press the Park gear and exit the
vehicle. Using data from the ultrasonic sensors, Summon maneuvers Model 3 forward or reverse
into a parking space. When parking is complete Summon shifts Model 3 into Park. Parking is
complete when:
• Model 3 detects an obstacle in its driving path (within a chosen distance)
• Summon has moved Model 3 the maximum distance of 39 feet (12 meters)
OR
• In the case of reversing, Summon has reached the maximum Summon Distance.
To use Summon:
• FIRST TIME ONLY: Enable Summon and customize how it works (see
page 70).
• Position Model 3 for parking (see
• Initiate the parking maneuver using the mobile app or by double-pressing the Park gear.
Detailed instructions for each method are provided later.
You can summon Model 3 back to its original position if you previously auto parked it and the
vehicle has remained in the Park gear. Then, using the mobile app, simply specify the opposite
direction. Summon moves the vehicle along the original path provided the environment has not
changed (i.e. no obstructions have been introduced). If obstacles are detected, Summon attempts
to avoid the obstacles while staying as close as possible to its original path.
To cancel Summon and stop Model 3 at any time during a parking maneuver, use the mobile app
or (if sitting in the vehicle) interact with the steering wheel, brake pedal, accelerator pedal, or gear
stalk.
Note: If you want Summon to move multiple times in the same direction, up to the maximum of 39
feet (12 meters), cancel Summon and then re-initiate the parking process, choosing the same
direction.
Note: Summon can move Model 3 a short distance laterally to avoid an obstacle but in doing so,
does not return the vehicle to its driving path (i.e. Summon does not attempt to move Model 3
around an obstacle).
Warning: Summon is unable to operate as intended if the ultrasonic sensors are obstructed
by a vehicle bra, excessive paint, or adhesive products (such as wraps, stickers, rubber
coating, etc.).
Warning: Model 3 cannot detect obstacles that are located lower than the bumper, very
narrow (i.e. bicycles), or hanging from a ceiling. 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 appropriately steer Model 3. Therefore, you must continually monitor the vehicle's
movement and surroundings and remain prepared to stop Model 3 at any time.
