Using the wireless phone charger*
The rubber pad below the center display can be used to charge a phone without having to connect its cord.
Activating and deactivating the wireless charger
The factory default setting for the wireless charger is activated. Sometimes it can be helpful to deactivate the charger if, for example, you would like to lay your phone on the rubber pad without charging it. To deactivate and activate:
Go to settings at the bottom of the center display and then tap Controls.
Adjust the control next to Wireless phone charger.
Charging a device using the wireless charger
Warning
Wireless charging can affect the operation of an implanted pacemaker or other medical devices. If you have one, it is recommended to consult with your doctor before using the wireless charging system.
Make sure that the charger is activated.
Remove all other objects from the charger.
Place the device to be charged in the center of the charger.
The device will begin charging and the symbol will appear at the top of the center display.
Important
Do not store cards or other objects with near-field communication (NFC), e.g. debit cards for contactless payment, together with the device to be charged. This interferes with the charging and could damage these types of objects.
Note
- The charging process may vary depending on the type of device being charged. For example, the amount of time before charging starts or before the device is fully charged may vary.
- Devices may become warm during charging. This is normal.
If the phone is not charging:
- Check in the center display that the charger is activated.
- Make sure there are no other objects on the charging pad.
- Make sure the phone supports wireless charging (Qi).
- If the phone has a phone case, remove it.
- Lift up the phone and then put it back on the center of the charging pad.
- Make sure the ignition is on.
- Make sure the phone hasn't slid off the charging pad while driving.
- If the temperature of the battery becomes too high while charging, the charging function will be switched off.
- If any of the doors are opened, charging will stop for a few seconds.
If an object is preventing charging on the charge pad, a message will be shown in the center display.
Important
Keep cellular phones and charger stations away from other objects while charging to help avoid overheating.
