Using the wireless phone charger*
The rubber plate under the centre display makes it possible to charge phones without the need to use the phone's cable.

The wireless charger is activated during factory setting. Sometimes, it can help to deactivate the charger, for example when you want to put your phone on the rubber panel without also charging it. To deactivate and activate it:

Important
Avoid storing cards or other objects with NFC (Near Field Communication), e.g. bank cards for contactless payment, with the unit to be charged. It can damage these types of objects and interfere with the charging.
Note
- The charging process may vary depending on the type of unit to be charged. For example, the time before charging starts or before the unit is fully charged can vary.
- Units may become hot during charging. This is normal.
If the phone does not charge:
- Check in the centre display that the charger is activated.
- Check that the charging plate is free from other objects.
- Check that the phone supports wireless charging (Qi).
- Remove the case from the phone if one is fitted.
- Lift the phone and position it in the centre of the charging plate once again.
- Check that the car is running.
- Check that your phone has not slid off the charging pad while driving.
- If battery temperature becomes too high during charging, the charging function is deactivated.
- If any of the doors are opened, charging is interrupted for several seconds.
If objects prevent charging on the charging plate, a message is shown in the centre display.
Important
Keep the phone and charging plate free of other objects while charging to avoid overheating.
