Summon from auto park (parallel / perpendicular parking)

New MS owner. From the manual, I am lead to believe that the car can pull out and return to the original position (parallel or perpendicular to the parking space):

"You can summon Model S back to its original position if you previously auto parked it and the
vehicle has remained in the Park gear. Then, using the mobile app or key, simply specify the
opposite direction. Summon moves the vehicle along the original path provided the environment
has not changed (i.e. no obstructions have been introduced)."

This would of course involve steering left or right as the vehicle un-parks, to return to the location where you engaged auto-park. So far my car will only pull straight out in a straight line from a perpendicular parking spot, when I use summon (in other words, it does not return to where I engaged auto-park)

Just curious if this is working for everyone but me, or if I'm missing something, or if I've misunderstood the owners manual.

Thanks!
