Messages in the driver display and the centre display
Driver display
The driver display shows messages that are of high priority for the driver.
The messages can be shown in different parts of the driver display depending on what other information is currently being displayed. After a while, or when the message has been acknowledged/action taken if required, the message disappears from the driver display. If a message needs to be saved, it is placed in the Car status app, which is opened from the app view in the centre display.
Message composition may vary and they can be shown together with graphics, symbols or buttons for acknowledging the message or accepting a request, for example.

Centre display
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 acknowledgement/action before they disappear. Messages that need to be saved are positioned in the top view in the centre display.
