2023 Volvo XC40 Recharge Plug-in Hybrid Centre display

Overview of centre display

Many of the car’s functions are controlled from the centre display. Presented here is the centre display and its options.

Three of the centre display basic views. Swipe right or left to access the function or app view respectively.

  1. Function view – car functions that are activated or deactivated with a press. Certain functions are also so-called trigger functions, which means they open a window with setting options. Examples of these include a Camera.
  2. Home view – the first view that is shown when the screen is started.
  3. Application view (app view) – apps that have been downloaded (third-party apps) and apps for embedded functions, such as FM radio. Tap on an app icon to open the app.
  4. Status bar – the activities in the car are shown right at the top of the screen. Network and connection information is shown on the left-hand side of the status bar, while media-related information, the clock, and indications about ongoing background activity are shown on the right.
  5. Top view – drag the tab down in order to access the top view. Settings, Owner’s manual, Profile and the car’s saved messages are accessed from here. In some cases, contextual settings (e.g. Navigation Settings) and the contextual owner’s manual (e.g. Navigation Manual) can also be accessed in the top view.
  6. Navigation – leads to map navigation, e.g. Sensus Navigation. Tap on the subview to expand it.
  7. Media – recently used apps associated with media. Tap on the subview to expand it.
  8. Phone – the phone function can be reached from here. Tap on the subview to expand it.
  9. Extra subview – recently used apps or car functions that do not belong in any of the other subviews. Tap on the subview to expand it.
  10. Climate row – information and direct interaction to set temperature and seat heating for example. Tap on the symbol in the centre of the climate row in order to open the climate view with more setting options.
Note
If necessary, climate control can be used to cool the media system in the center display. In these cases, the message Climate system Cooling the infotainment system is shown in the driver display.

Activating and deactivating centre display

The centre display can be dimmed and reactivated using the home button beneath the screen.

Home button for the centre display.

The effect of using the home button is that the screen dims and the touchscreen no longer reacts to touch. The climate row will still be shown. All functions connected to the screen are still running, such as climate, audio, navigation, and apps. When the centre display is dimmed, it is a good opportunity to clean the screen.
The dimming function can also be used to fade the screen so that it does not disturb while driving.

  1. Give a long press on the physical home button below the screen.
    1. The screen goes dark except for the climate row, which continues to be shown. All functions connected to the screen are still running.
  2. Reactivate the screen – briefly tap on the home button.
    1. The view that was displayed before the screen was switched off will be shown again.
Note
The screen cannot be deactivated when a prompt to perform an action is shown on the screen.
Note
The centre display deactivates automatically when the engine is off and the driver’s door is opened.

Managing the centre display

Many of the car’s functions are controlled and regulated from the centre display. The centre display is a touch screen that reacts to touch.

Using the touch screen functionality in the center display

  1. The screen reacts differently depending on whether it is touched by dragging, swiping, or tapping. Actions such as browsing between different views, marking objects and scrolling in a list can be performed by touching the screen in different ways.
  2. An infrared light curtain just above the surface of the screen enables the screen to detect a finger that is just in front of the screen. This technology makes it possible to use the screen even with gloves on.
  3. Two people can interact with the screen at the same time, e.g. to adjust the climate for the driver and passenger side respectively.

Navigating in the centre display’s views

There are five different basic views in the centre display: home view, top view, climate view, app view and function view. The screen is started automatically when the driver’s door is opened.

Home view

  • Home view is the view that is shown when the screen is started. It consists of four subviews: Navigation, Media, Phone and an extra subview.
  • An app or car function selected from the app or function view starts in the respective subview of the home view. E.g. FM radio starts in the Media tile.
  • The extra tile shows the last used app or car function that is not associated with any of the other three areas.
  • The subviews show brief information about each different app.
Note
When the car is started, the home view’s various sub-views show information on the current status of apps.
Note
In home view standard mode – briefly press the home button. An animation that describes access to the different views is shown on the screen.
Status bar
The activities in the car are shown at the top of the screen. Network and connection information is shown on the left-hand side of the status bar, while media-related information, the clock and indication that background activity is in progress are shown on the right.

Top view

Top view dragged down.
A tab is located in the centre of the status bar at the top of the screen. Open the top view by pressing on the tab or by dragging/swiping from the top downwards across the screen.

In the top view, access is always available to:

  • Settings
  • Owner’s manual
  • Profile
  • The car’s saved messages.

In the top view, access is given to the following in some cases:

  • Contextual setting (e.g. Navigation Settings). Change settings directly in the top view when an app (e.g. navigation) is running.
  • Contextual Owner’s Manual (e.g. Navigation Manual). Gain access directly in the top view to articles in the digital owner’s manual that are related to the content displayed on screen.

Exit the top view – press outside the top view, on the home button or at the bottom of the top view and drag upward. The underlying view is then visible and available for use again.

Note
The top view is not available during starting/shutdown or when a message is shown on the screen. It is also not available when climate view is shown.
Climate view

The climate row is always visible at the bottom of the screen. The most common climate settings can be made directly there, such as setting temperature and seat heating.

Press the symbol in the centre of the climate row to open the climate view and gain access to more climate settings.

Press the symbol to close the climate view and return to the previous view.

App view

App view with the car’s apps.

  • Swipe from right to left across the screen in order to access the app view from the home view. Apps that have been downloaded (third-party apps) and apps for embedded functions, such as FM radio, are found here. Certain apps show brief information directly in the app view, such as the number of unread text messages for Messages.
  • Tap on an app to open it. The app then opens in the tile to which it belongs, e.g. Media.
  • You can scroll down in the app view, depending on the number of apps. Do this by swiping/dragging from the bottom and up.
  • Go back to the home view again by swiping from left to right across the screen, or by pressing the home button.

Function view

The function view with buttons for different car functions.
  • Swipe from left to right across the screen in order to access the function view from the home view. From here you can activate or deactivate different car functions, e.g. BLIS, Lane Keeping Aid and Park Assist.
  • Depending on the number of functions, it is also possible here to scroll down in the view. Do this by swiping/dragging from the bottom and up.
  • Unlike the in-app view, where an app is opened with a press, a function is activated or deactivated by pressing the relevant function button. Some functions (trigger functions) open in a new window when pressed.
  • Go back to the home view again by swiping from right to left across the screen, or by pressing the home button.

Managing subviews in centre display

Home view consists of four subviews: NavigationMediaPhone, and an extra subview. These views can be expanded.

Function view in centre display

All the buttons for car functions are located in the function view, one of the centre display’s basic views. Navigate to the function view from the home view by swiping from left to right across the screen.

Different types of buttons

There are three different types of buttons for car functions; see below:

Type of button Property Affects car function
Function buttons Have on/off positions.

When a function is running, an LED indicator illuminates to the left of the icon for the button. Press the button to activate/deactivate a function.

Most buttons in function view are function buttons.
Trigger buttons Do not have on/off positions.

When a trigger button is depressed, a window for the function is opened. For example, it may be a window to change seat position.

  • Camera
  • Headrest Fold
Parking buttons Have on, off and scan modes.

Similar to the function buttons but with an extra position for parking scanning.

  • Park In
  • Park Out
The buttons’ different modes

When the LED indicator illuminates in green on a function or parking button, the function is activated. When a function is activated, extra text with an explanation for certain functions is shown. The text is shown for a few seconds and then the button is shown with the LED indicator illuminated.
For Lane Keeping Aid, the text Works only at certain speeds is shown, for example, when the button is depressed.
Press the button once briefly to activate or deactivate the function.

The function is deactivated when the LED indicator is extinguished.

When a warning triangle is shown in the right-hand section of the button there is something not working as intended.

Moving apps and buttons to center display

The apps and buttons for car functions in the app view and function view respectively can be moved and organized as desired.

  1. Swipe from right to left to access the app view, or swipe from left to right to access the function view.
  2. Tap on an app or button and hold it down.
    1. The app or button changes size and becomes slightly transparent. It is then possible to move it.
  3. Drag the app or button to a vacant space in the view.

The maximum number of rows available for use in order to position apps or buttons is 48. To move an app or button outside the visible view, drag it to the bottom of the view. New rows are then added, where the app or button can be located.
An app or button can thus be located further down and is then not visible in the normal mode for the view.

Swipe across the screen to scroll up or down in the view.

Note
Hide the apps that you rarely or never use by moving them to the bottom, off the visible screen. This way it will be easier to find the apps you use more often.
Note
Apps and car function buttons cannot be added to locations that are already occupied.

Message in centre display

The centre display can show messages to inform or assist the driver in the event of different events.

Example of a message in the centre display’s top view.

  • The centre display shows messages that are of lower priority for the driver.
  • Most messages are shown above the centre display’s status bar. After a while, or when any required action related to the message has been taken, the message disappears from the status bar. If a message needs to be saved, it is positioned in the top view in the centre display.
  • Message composition may vary and they can be shown together with graphics, symbols or a button for activating/deactivating a function linked to the message.
Pop-up messages
In some cases, a message is shown in the form of a pop-up window. Pop-up messages have higher priority than messages shown in the status bar and require acknowledgment/action before they disappear.

Keyboard in the centre display

The centre display keyboard makes it possible make entries using keys. It is also possible to “draw in” letters and characters on the screen by hand.

  • The keyboard can be used to enter characters, letters and numbers, e.g. to write text messages from the car, enter passwords or search for articles in the digital owner’s manual.

Owner’s manual in centre display

Important
The driver is always responsible that the vehicle is driven safely in traffic and that applicable laws and regulations are followed. It is also important that the car is maintained and handled in accordance with Volvo’s recommendations in the owner’s information.
