Stopping or Canceling Smart
Summon
Smart Summon stops Model 3 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 3. Depending
on the quality of the connectivity
between the phone and Model 3, 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 3 is blocked by an obstacle.
• Smart Summon has moved Model 3 the
maximum distance of approximately 145
meters within a 65 meter radius of the
phone's location. To move further than
this distance, you must shift
Model 3 into
Drive or Reverse and then re-initiate an
Smart Summon session.
•
Your phone enters sleep mode or loses
connectivity to Model 3.
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 3 over it.
•
One or more of the ultrasonic sensors (if
equipped) 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
or camera operation.
• The sensors (if equipped) are aected by
other electrical equipment or devices that
generate ultrasonic waves.
NOTE: Smart Summon is disabled if Model 3
is in Valet mode (see Valet Mode on page 51).
