(3 meters) and press and hold the top
center button on the key (Lock/Unlock All

continuously.
Note: The hazard lights flash once as
Model S locks, then within five seconds,

next step until the hazard lights are

on the touchscreen, Summon does not start a
parking maneuver when you exit.

Limitations
Summon is unlikely to operate as intended in
the following types of situations:
• The driving path is sloped. Summon is
designed to operate on flat roads only (up
to 10% grade).
• A raised concrete edge is detected.
Summon will not move the vehicle over an
edge that is higher than approximately 1 in
(2.5 cm).
• One or more of the ultrasonic sensors is
damaged, dirty, or obstructed (such as by
mud, ice, or snow, or by a vehicle bra,
excessive paint, or adhesive products such
as wraps, stickers, rubber coating, etc.).
• Weather conditions (heavy rain, snow, fog,
or extremely hot or cold temperatures)
are interfering with sensor operation.
• The sensors are affected by other
electrical equipment or devices that
generate ultrasonic waves.
Note: Summon is disabled if Model S is in Valet
mode (see Valet Mode
Warning: The list above does not
represent an exhaustive list of situations
that may interfere with proper operation
of Summon. It is the driver's responsibility
to remain in control of Model S at all
times. Pay close attention whenever
Summon is actively moving Model S and
stay prepared to take immediate action.
Failure to do so can result in serious
property damage, injury or death.
