Summon
NOTE: Summon requires that Model 3 can
detect an authenticated phone nearby.
Starting Summon Before Exiting the
Vehicle
WARNING: Model 3 cannot detect
obstacles that are located lower than
the bumper, are very narrow, or are
hanging from a ceiling (for example,
bicycles). 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 move Model 3
appropriately. Therefore, you must
continually monitor the vehicle's
movement and its surroundings and
remain prepared to stop Model 3 at
any time.
To start a Summon parking sequence before
exiting Model 3:
1. On the touchscreen, ensure that Require
Continuous Press is disabled (touch
Controls > Autopilot > Summon >
Require Continuous Press > NO).
2. Close all doors and trunks.
3. With Model 3 powered on and the Park
gear engaged, double press the Park
button on the drive stalk. The touchscreen
displays a popup window.
4. On the touchscreen, choose the direction
of travel.
Operating Summon with the Key
NOTE: Summon may not operate if the key
fob accessory's battery is low.
5. Exit Model 3 and close the driver's door.
Summon now moves Model 3 according to
the direction you specified on the
touchscreen.
Follow these steps to park Model 3 from
outside the vehicle using the key fob
accessory:
NOTE: To cancel the parking maneuver before
exiting, touch Cancel on the popup window.
1. On the touchscreen, ensure that Require
Continuous Press is disabled (touch
Controls > Autopilot > Summon >
Require Continuous Press > NO).
NOTE: If you do not choose a direction of
travel on the touchscreen, Summon does not
start a parking maneuver when you exit.
2. With Model 3 in Park, stand within 10 feet
(3 meters) and press and hold the top
center button on the key fob accessory
(Lock/Unlock All button) until the hazard
lights blink continuously.
Stopping or Canceling Summon
You can stop Model 3 at any time while
Summon is active by using the mobile app or
by pressing any button on the key fob
accessory. Summon also cancels when:
NOTE: The hazard lights flash once as
Model 3 locks, then within five seconds,
Model 3 powers on and the hazard lights
flash continuously. Do not proceed to the
next step until the hazard lights are
flashing. If, after five seconds, the hazard
lights are not flashing, release the button
on the key fob accessory, move closer to
Model 3, and try again. If Summon
receives no further input within ten
seconds, Summon cancels.
• A door handle is engaged or a door is
opened.
• You interact with the steering wheel,
brake pedal, accelerator pedal, or drive
stalk.
• Model 3 detects an obstacle.
• Summon has moved Model 3 the
maximum distance of approximately 39

3. Press the Front Trunk button on the key
fob accessory to move Model 3 forward
into the parking space, or press the Rear
Trunk button to reverse Model 3 into the
parking space.
