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 viewHome 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.
When the car is started, the home view’s various sub-views show information on the current status of apps.
In home view standard mode – briefly press the home button. An animation that describes access to the different views is shown on the screen.
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.
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.
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. (Option/accessory.)
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 (Applies to left-hand drive cars. For right-hand drive cars – swipe in the opposite direction.) 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 (Applies to left-hand drive cars. For right-hand drive cars – swipe in the opposite direction.) 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 (Applies to left-hand drive cars. For right-hand drive cars – swipe in the opposite direction.) 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, (Option/accessory.) Lane Keeping Aid (Option/accessory.) and Park Assist. (Option/accessory.) Depending on the amount of functions, it is also possible here to scroll down in the view. Do this by swiping/dragging from the bottom and up. Unlike 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 (Applies to left-hand drive cars. For right-hand drive cars – swipe in the opposite direction.)( across the screen, or by pressing the home button.
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 home view by swiping from left to right across the screen. (Applies to left-hand drive cars. For right-hand drive cars – swipe in the opposite direction.)
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. |
|
| Parking buttons | Have on, off and scan modes. Similar to the function buttons but with an extra position for parking scanning. |
|
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.
The apps and buttons for car functions in the app view and function view respectively can be moved and organised as desired.
- Swipe from right to left to access the app view, or swipe from left to right to access the function view.
- Tap on an app or button and hold it down.
- The app or button changes size and becomes slightly transparent. It is then possible to move it.
- 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.
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.
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.
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 acknowledgement/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. The keyboard is only shown when entries can be made on the screen.
