Personal settings

Personal settings are saved to an active profile.

  • Function settings – settings related to driver support, driver’s side climate control, the driver’s seat, the power door mirrors, as well as interior and exterior lighting. These settings retain their values when a profile is added or when logging out from an active profile.
  • Audio and media settings – settings related to navigation, audio and media system, apps and linked accounts. These settings go back to default settings when a profile is added or when logging out from an active profile.

Global settings

The global settings are not changed when the profile is changed. They remain the same regardless of which profile is currently active. Examples of global settings are passenger-side climate control, memory function for the passenger seat, and some system settings.

Default settings for driving cycle

A number of settings revert to default settings after one driving cycle. It is possible to adjust these settings while driving. The next time the vehicle is driven, the settings will return to their default values.
