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 S in and
out of a parking space from outside the
vehicle using the mobile app. Using data from
the ultrasonic sensors, Summon maneuvers
Model S forward or reverse into a parking
space. When parking is complete Summon
shifts Model S into Park. Parking is complete
when:
Model S detects an obstacle in its driving
path (within a chosen distance)
Summon has moved Model S the
maximum distance of 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 Customizing
Summon on page 89).
Position Model S for parking (see Position
the Vehicle for Parking on page 90).
Initiate the parking maneuver using the
mobile app. Detailed instructions for each
method are provided later.
You can summon Model S 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 S at any
time during a parking maneuver, use the
mobile app, press any button on the key, 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 12 meters, cancel Summon and
then re-initiate the parking process, choosing
the same direction.
Note: Summon can move Model S 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 S 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 S 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 S.
Therefore, you must continually monitor
the vehicle's movement and surroundings
and remain prepared to stop Model S at
any time.
Customizing Summon
Before operating Summon, use the
touchscreen to enable it. Touch Controls >
Settings > Driver Assistance > Summon > ON.
Then touch Customize to specify how
Summon operates whenever it parks or
retrieves your vehicle:
Bumper Clearance: Set the distance that
you want Summon to stop from a
detected object. For example, you may
want Summon to stop within just a few
inches of the garage wall. This distance
applies only to objects detected directly in
front of (when moving forward) or behind
(when reversing) Model S.
Summon Distance: Specify the distance
Model S travels when backing out of a
parking space.
Side Clearance: Allow Model S to enter
and exit very narrow parking spaces.
Warning:
Parking in a narrow space
limits the ability of the sensors to
accurately detect the location of
obstacles, increasing the risk of
damage to Model S and/or
surrounding objects.
