Connected Safety
For Connected Safety to be able to share
information on road conditions with other
vehicles, the function needs to be activated.
The function can be deactivated if you do not
want to share information.
Activate or deactivate the
function using this button in
the centre display's function
view.
Illuminated button indication – the func-
•
tion is activated.
Extinguished button indication – the func-
•
tion is deactivated.
When activated, special terms and conditions
that appear on the display must be acknowl-
edged by the driver before a connection to the
Internet

can be made. For example, a situa-
tion where the driver must accept data being
sent from the car using his/her mobile phone.
If there is no Internet connection, your own car
will still inform you, the driver, that slippery
driving conditions have been detected by your
own car. For Connected Safety to work fully,
your own car needs to be connected to the
Internet.

Limitations of Connected Safety
Information about vehicles with activated
hazard warning flashers or which have
detected slippery driving conditions is not
always communicated between all vehicles
within the same area.
This can be because for example:
Poor or no contact with the Internet.
•
Vehicles on slippery surfaces make
•
manoeuvres that are too weak for friction
between tyres and road surface to be
detectable, e.g. steering wheel movement,
acceleration or braking.
Vehicles that have detected slippery surfa-
•
ces, or have activated their hazard warn-
ing flashers, do not have the function acti-
vated.
Vehicles that have detected slippery surfa-
•
ces, or have activated their hazard warn-
ing flashers, are not equipped with the
function.
There may be no warning due to missing
•
or defective global positioning/satellite
navigation.
Detection of slippery surfaces or activation
•
of hazard warning flashers has taken place
* Option/accessory.
