Tesla Model Y: Stopping or Canceling Summon
Stop Model Y at any time while Summon is active by
using the mobile app or by pressing any button on the
key fob. Summon also cancels 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 detects an obstacle.
- Summon has moved Model Y the maximum distance
of approximately 39 feet (12 meters).
- Your phone enters sleep mode or loses connectivity
to Model Y.
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 does
not move Model Y over an edge that is higher than
approximately 1 in (2.5 cm).
- One or more of the ultrasonic sensors or cameras 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.
- Model Y is in Trailer Mode or an accessory is
attached.
NOTE: Summon is disabled if Model Y 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 Y at all
times. Pay close attention whenever Summon is
actively moving Model Y and stay prepared to take
immediate action. Failure to do so can result in
serious property damage, injury or death.
