INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS

Driver profiles

Many of the settings made in the car can be
adapted according to the driver's personal pref-
erences and can be saved in one or more driver
profiles.
The personal settings are automatically saved in
the active driver profile. Each key can be linked to
a driver profile. When the linked key is used, the
car is adapted to the settings of that specific
driver profile.
What settings are saved in the driver
profiles?
Many of the settings made in the car will be auto-
matically saved in the active driver profile if the
profile is not locked; see the section "Editing a
driver profile". Settings made in the car are either
personal or global. Only personal settings are
saved in driver profiles.
Settings that can be saved in a driver profile
include, amongst other things, screens, mirrors,
front seats, navigation, audio and media system,
language and voice control.
Some settings, referred to as global settings, can
be changed but are not saved to a specific driver
profile. Changes to global settings affect all pro-
files.
Global settings
The global settings and parameters are not
changed when changing between driver profiles.

They remain the same regardless of which driver
profile is active.
Keyboard layout settings are an example of
global settings. If driver profile X is used to add
additional languages to the keyboard, these
remain available for use even if driver profile Y is
used. The keyboard layout settings are not saved
to a specific driver profile - the settings are
global.
Personal preferences
If driver profile X was used to e.g. set centre dis-
play brightness, driver profile Y is not affected by
this setting. It has been saved to driver profile X -
the brightness setting is a personal setting.
Refer to the section "Categories in the settings
view" for more information on which settings are
personal and which are global.

Selecting driver profile

The last used driver profile is the one selected
when the car is unlocked. It is possible to
change to another driver profile after the car has
been unlocked.
When the centre display has been started, the
selected driver profile is shown at the top of the
screen. The driver profile last used is the one that
will be active next time the car is unlocked. How-
ever, if the remote control key has been linked to
a driver profile then this is what is selected when
the car is started. See "Linking remote control
key to driver profile".
There are two options for changing to another
driver profile.
Option 1:
1. Tap on the name of the driver profile shown
in the top of the centre display when the dis-
play has been started.
> A list of selectable driver profiles is shown.
2. Select the driver profile required.
3. Press
Confirm
.
> The driver profile is selected and the sys-
tem loads the settings for the new driver
profile.
Option 2:
1. Drag down the top view in the centre display.
