2023 TESLA MODEL Y warning

This feature may be temporarily limited or inactive until
it is enabled with a future software update for vehicles
manufactured as of approximately October 2022.
NOTE: Depending on market region, vehicle
configuration, options purchased, and software version,
your vehicle may not be equipped with Summon, or the
feature may not operate exactly as described.
Summon allows you to automatically park and retrieve
Model Y while you are standing outside the vehicle.
Summon moves
Model Y forward and reverse up to 39
feet (12 meters) in, or out of, a parking space.
To move Model Y a longer distance while steering
around objects, you can use Smart Summon
(if
equipped) and your mobile phone. Smart Summon
allows your vehicle to
find you (or you can send your
vehicle to a chosen location). See
Smart Summon on
page 116.
CAUTION: Ensure all cameras and sensors (if
equipped) are clean. Dirty cameras and sensors, as
well as environmental conditions such as rain and
faded lane markings, can affect Autopilot
performance.
WARNING: Summon is designed and intended for
use only on parking lots and driveways on private
property where the surrounding area is familiar
and predictable.
WARNING: 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

WARNING: Forward Collision Warning may
provide a warning in situations where the
likelihood of collision may not exist. Stay alert and
always pay attention to the area in front of Model
Y so you can anticipate whether any action is
required.
Forward Collision Warning operates only when driving between approximately
3 mph (5 km/h) and 90 mph
(150 km/h).
WARNING: Forward Collision Warning does not
provide a warning when the driver is already
applying the brake.
Automatic Emergency Braking
Model Y is designed to determine the distance from a
detected object traveling in front of it. When a frontal collision is considered unavoidable, Automatic Emergency Braking is designed to apply the brakes to
reduce the vehicle

How Speed Assist Works
Model Y displays a speed limit on the touchscreen and
you can choose if and how you are warned when you exceed the speed limit. Also, instead of using the detected speed limit, you can base warnings on an arbitrary speed limit that you enter manually.
NOTE: When using Traffic-Aware Cruise Control, you can
touch this speed limit sign to change your set cruising
speed to the detected speed limit (including any
offsets

that you have set).
In situations where Model Y is unable to determine a
speed limit, or if Speed Assist is uncertain that an acquired speed limit is accurate, the
touchscreen may
not display a speed limit sign and warnings do not take
effect.
NOTE: Speed limit warnings go away after ten seconds,
or when
Model Y slows down below the specified limit.
WARNING: Do not rely on Speed Assist to
determine the appropriate speed limit or driving
speed. Always drive at a safe speed based on
traffic and road conditions.
Controlling Speed Assist
To adjust the Speed Limit Warning setting, touch
Controls > Autopilot > Speed Limit Warning, then
choose one of these options:

Overview of Climate Controls
Climate controls are available at the bottom of the touchscreen. By default, climate control is set to Auto, which
maintains optimum comfort in all but the most severe weather conditions. When you adjust the cabin temperature
while in the
Auto setting, the system automatically adjusts the heating, air conditioning, air distribution, and fan
speed to maintain the cabin at your selected temperature.
Touch the displayed temperature at the bottom of the touchscreen to access the main climate controls screen, where you can adjust your climate preferences. You can revert back to Auto at any time by touching
Auto. Touch the
power button on the main climate controls screen to toggle on or
off. For quick access to common controls, touch <
or > to display the climate popup.
NOTE: The climate control system is powered by the high voltage Battery. Therefore, prolonged use decreases
driving range.
WARNING: To avoid burns resulting from prolonged use, individuals who have peripheral neuropathy, or whose
capacity to feel pain is limited because of diabetes, age, neurological injury, or some other condition, should
exercise caution when using the climate control system and seat heaters.
Adjusting Climate Control Settings
NOTE: Easily adjust your climate preferences, such as turning on the seat heater or changing the cabin temperature,
hands-free by using voice commands (see
Voice Commands on page 136).
NOTE: For one-touch access to seat heaters and defrosters, you can add these controls to My Apps. See
Customizing My Apps on page 8.
