Setting up your car for the first time
The setup guide for your car automatically starts in the centre display. It guides you through setting up the owner profile and other essential settings.
Tip
Before getting your car
Before you start, you will need to create a Volvo ID and download the Volvo Cars app. This makes the in-car setup faster.
- Important settings, such as your car's system language
- Connecting the car to your Volvo ID and the Volvo Cars app
- Consent to terms and conditions for various car services, including third party services
- Setting up internet access
- Consent to software updates
- Setting up the owner profile
Note
Stay parked during setup
The car needs to be stationary and in P when you go through the setup guide.
Complete setup
It's advisable to complete the setup before driving the car. If you exit the guide before going through the necessary steps, certain features will be unavailable until you go back and complete the process. You will also be reminded about the setup the next time you drive the car.
No guide?
If the car has already been set up by someone else, such as a previous owner, you can reset the car to access the setup guide again.
