• Model Y has moved the maximum
distance of 475 feet (145 meters) since the
start of the Smart Summon session, or has
moved 492 feet (150 meters) away from
the location from which the vehicle was
last driven manually.
Note: If Smart Summon moves Model Y
forward three feet and then backwards
two feet, this is considered five feet of
travel.
Note: There is no need to look at the mobile
app—just hold down the button while keeping
your eye on Model Y and its driving path at all
times, remaining ready to release the button
to stop the vehicle if needed.
If equipped and Auto HomeLink is enabled for
Summon (touch Controls > Autopilot >
Summon > Use Auto HomeLink, Smart
Summon automatically opens a HomeLink
device if you start the Smart Summon
maneuver when Model Y is located inside a
garage. The mobile app informs you that the
door has opened.
Warning: When you release the button to
stop Model Y, a slight delay occurs before
the vehicle stops. Therefore, it is critical
that you pay close attention to the
vehicle’s driving path at all times and
proactively anticipate obstacles that the
vehicle may be unable to detect.
Warning: Use extreme caution when using
Smart Summon in environments where
movement of obstacles can be
unpredictable. For example, where
people, children or animals are present.
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
oncoming or side trac. Pay attention
and be ready to stop Model Y at all times
by releasing the button on the mobile
app.
Standby Mode
To keep Model Y ready to Summon and
reduce the time it takes to warm up, turn on
Standby Mode. Touch Controls > Autopilot >
Customize Summon > Standby Mode. When
Standby Mode is turned on, you can conserve
Battery energy by disabling Standby Mode at
these locations:
• Exclude Home - Disables Standby Mode at
the location you set as Home in your
Favorites list.
•
Exclude Work - Disables Standby Mode at
the location you set as Work in your
Favorites list.
• Exclude Favorites - Disables Standby
Mode at any location in your Favorites list.
Note: To conserve energy, Smart Summon
automatically exits Standby mode from
midnight to 6:00 am. During these hours, you
will experience a delay as Smart Summon
starts up.
Note: Additional battery power may be
consumed while Standby Mode is active.
Note: For details on how to designate a
location as Home, Work, or Favorites, see
Recent, Favorite, Home and Work Destinations
on page 133).
Stopping or Canceling Smart
Summon
Smart Summon stops Model Y 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 Y. Depending on the
quality of the connectivity between the
phone and Model Y, 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 gear stalk.
• Model Y is blocked by an obstacle.
• Smart Summon has moved Model Y the
maximum distance of approximately 475
feet (145 meters) within a 213 foot (65
meter) radius of the phone's location. To
move further than this distance, you must
shift Model Y into a driving gear (Drive or
Reverse) and then re-initiate an Smart
Summon session.
• Your phone enters sleep mode or loses
connectivity to Model Y.
