NOTE:
Depending on market region, vehicle
configuration, options purchased, and software version,
your vehicle may not be equipped with Smart Summon,
or the feature may not operate exactly as described.
Smart Summon
is designed to allow you to move
Model S to your location (using your phone's GPS as a
target destination) or to a location of your choice,
maneuvering around and stopping for objects as
necessary. Smart Summon works with the Tesla mobile
app when your phone is located within approximately
213 feet (65 meters) of Model S. Smart Summon
maneuvers Model S out of parking spaces and around
corners. This is useful for moving Model S out of a tight
parking spot, through puddles, or helping you retrieve
your car while carrying packages. You must maintain a
clear line of sight between you and Model S and closely
monitor the vehicle and its surroundings at all times.
CAUTION:
Ensure all cameras and sensors are
clean. Dirty cameras and sensors, as well as
environmental conditions such as rain and faded
lane markings, can affect Autopilot performance.
WARNING:
Smart Summon is designed and
intended for use only on parking lots and
driveways located on private property where the
surrounding area is familiar and predictable. Do
not use Smart Summon on public roads.
WARNING:
Smart Summon must only be used on
paved surfaces.
WARNING:
Smart Summon is a BETA feature. You
must continually monitor the vehicle and its
surroundings and stay prepared to take immediate
action at any time. It is the driver's responsibility to
use Smart Summon safely, responsibly, and as
intended.
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 traffic. Smart Summon does
not recognize the direction of traffic, does not
navigate around empty parking spaces, and may
not anticipate crossing traffic.
WARNING:
Smart Summon's performance
depends on the ultrasonic sensors , the visibility of
the cameras, and the availability of an adequate
cellular signal and GPS data.
WARNING:
When using Smart Summon, you must
maintain a clear line of sight between you and
Model S and stay prepared to stop the vehicle at
any time by releasing the button on the mobile
app.
Before Using Smart Summon
• Download the latest version of the Tesla mobile app
to your phone, and ensure your phone has cellular
service and GPS enabled.
• Your phone must be connected to Model S and
located within approximately 213 feet (65 meters).
• The vehicle's cameras must be fully calibrated (see
Drive to Calibrate Cameras on page 82
).
• You must have a clear line of sight to Model S.
• Model S must be in Park, not charging, and all doors
and trunks must be closed.
Using Smart Summon
1. Open the Tesla mobile app, and press
Summon
.
2. Press the
Smart Summon
icon located in the center
of the image of your Model S. It may take several
seconds for Smart Summon to start up.
NOTE:
You can use Standby Mode to eliminate the
delay that occurs when Smart Summon is starting up
(see
).
The mobile app displays a map with a blue circle,
which represents the maximum proximity of 213 feet
(65 meters) that you must maintain between your
phone and Model S. The blue dot on the map
represents your location, and the red arrow
represents the location of Model S.
3. Position yourself anywhere within the blue circle
where you have a clear line of sight to Model S.
4. You can now operate Smart Summon using either of
these modes:
◦
Come to Me
mode: Press and hold the
Come to
Me
button. Model S moves to your GPS location.
As you move, Model S follows you. When Model S
reaches you, it stops and shifts into park.
◦
Go to Target
mode: Touch the crosshair icon then
drag the map to position the pin on a chosen
destination. Press and hold the
Go to Target
button. Model S moves to the destination. When
reaching the location, Model S stops and shifts
into Park and the mobile app displays a message
indicating that Summon has completed.
NOTE:
To subsequently change the location, lift
your finger, reposition the map, then press and
hold
Go to Target
again.
To stop Model S at any time, simply release the
Come
to Me
or
Go to Target
button.
The map's crosshair icon toggles between
Go to Target
and

icon is blue.

The map also has an icon that
allows you to display/hide satellite imagery.
