You regain the spell slots every short or long rest. You prepare the list of Summoner spells that are available for you to cast, choosing from the Summoner spell list (Warlock spell list). When you do so, choose a number of warlock spells equal to your Charisma modifier + your Summoner level (minimum of one) The spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots. Eg. If you are a level 5 Summoner, when you cast a level 1 Thunderwave spell, it will automatically be cast at level 3.
