Smart Summon
Immediately after initiating Smart Summon in either
mode, hazard lights briefly flash, mirrors fold, and Model
Y shifts into Drive or Reverse. Model Y then slowly
moves to within 1 meter of you (COME TO ME) or your
chosen destination (GO TO TARGET), navigating
obstacles as needed. As Model Y moves, the
corresponding red arrow on the map also moves to
show the vehicle's location. As you move, the
corresponding blue dot also moves to show your
location.
In either mode, Model Y stops moving and shifts into
park when:
• You release the button on the mobile app.
• The maximum proximity of 6 meters between your
phone and Model Y is exceeded (if moving Model Y
to a destination away from you, you may need to
follow the car to maintain this distance).
• The driving path is blocked.
• Model Y has moved the maximum distance of 20
meters since the start of the Smart Summon session.
NOTE: If Smart Summon moves Model Y forward
three meters and then backwards two meters, this is
considered five meters of travel.
NOTE: There is no need to look at the mobile app—just
hold down the button while keeping your eye on Model
Y and its driving path at all times, remaining ready to
release the button to stop the vehicle if needed.
WARNING: When you release the button to stop
Model Y, a slight delay occurs before the vehicle
stops. Therefore, it is critical that you pay close
attention to the vehicle's driving path at all times
and proactively anticipate obstacles that the
vehicle may be unable to detect.
WARNING: Use extreme caution when using Smart
Summon in environments where movement of
obstacles can be unpredictable. For example,
where people, children or animals are present.
WARNING: Smart Summon may not stop for all
objects (especially very low objects such as some
curbs, or very high objects such as a shelf) and
may not react to all oncoming or side traffic. Pay
attention and be ready to stop Model Y at all times
by releasing the button on the mobile app.
Standby Mode
To keep Model Y ready to Summon and reduce the time
it takes to warm up, turn on Standby Mode. Touch
Controls > Autopilot > Standby Mode. When Standby
Mode is turned on, you can conserve Battery energy by
disabling Standby Mode at these locations:
• Exclude Home - Disables Standby Mode at the
location you set as Home in your Favorites list.
114
• Exclude Work - Disables Standby Mode at the
location you set as Work in your Favorites list.
• Exclude Favorites - Disables Standby Mode at any
location in your Favorites list.
NOTE: To conserve energy, Smart Summon
automatically exits Standby mode from midnight to
6:00 am. During these hours, a delay occurs as Smart
Summon starts up.
NOTE: Additional battery power may be consumed
while Standby Mode is active.
NOTE: For details on how to designate a location as
Home, Work, or Favorites, see
Destinations on page 137.
Stopping or Canceling Smart
Summon
Smart Summon stops Model Y whenever you release the
button on the mobile app. To resume the Smart
Summon session, simply press the Come to Me or Go to
Target button again.
WARNING: Always anticipate when you need to
stop Model Y. Depending on the quality of the
connectivity between the phone and Model Y,
there may be a slight delay between when you
release the button and when the car stops.
Smart Summon cancels, and requires you to restart it,
when:
• A door handle is engaged or a door is opened.
• You interact with the steering wheel, brake pedal,
accelerator pedal, or shift.
• Model Y is blocked by an obstacle.
• Smart Summon has moved Model Y the maximum
distance of approximately 20 meters within a 6 meter
radius of the phone's location. To move further than
this distance, you must shift Model Y into Drive or
Reverse and then re-initiate a Smart Summon session.
• Your phone enters sleep mode or loses connectivity
to Model Y.
Limitations
Smart Summon is unlikely to operate as intended in the
following types of situations:
• GPS data is unavailable due to poor cellular coverage.
• The driving path is sloped. Smart Summon is
designed to operate on flat roads only (up to 10%
grade).
• A raised concrete edge is detected. Depending on
the height of the concrete edge, Smart Summon may
not move Model Y over it.
