Detailed map information is shown.

Note the map information.

Downloading of map data from the Internet to a USB memory

Have the USB memory and noted map information readily available.

From a computer with Internet - connect to the Volvo Cars support site (support.volvocars.com).

Select maps, car model and model year.

Click on the region to be updated.

Map image with information on the latest map data for the region is shown.

Verify that the map version is newer than the one in the car.

Connect a USB memory to the computer and download the update to the USB memory.

The time taken to download the data varies according to the map file size and the connection's bandwidth.

Transferring map data from a USB to the car

A transfer can take up to 40 minutes depending on the amount of the map data. Updating takes place while driving. If installation is not finished when the car is switched off then the update continues when next driving.

Updating

Activate the navigation system.

Connect the USB memory to the car's USB port. If there are two USB ports then the other one must not be in use.

The navigation system automatically detects that an update is available and, during the update of the whole map database, shows on the screen what percentage of the process remains to be done.

For the update of an individual map region, the update starts immediately.

To start the update of the whole map database, the user must tap on Confirm - or on Cancel in order to cancel the installation.

Tap on Confirm - The update of the whole map database starts and information about how the process is proceeding is shown on the centre display.

The screen shows when the transfer is complete - at which point, remove the USB memory.

Restart the infotainment system.

Verify that the correct map data have been transferred to the car by repeating the steps described under the previous heading "Note current map version".

Interruptions

If there is an interruption during an update an explanatory text message is always shown on the centre display.

What happens if...	Answer
...the Infotainment system is switched off during the update?	The process pauses and resumes automatically from where it stopped when the system is reactivated, e.g. when the engine is started.
...the USB memory is pulled out before the update is complete?	The process pauses and resumes automatically from where it stopped when the USB memory is reconnected to the car.
