Driver display
The driver display shows you notifications and information related to your driving and the car itself.
The driver display is located in front of the driver, behind the steering wheel. Its position changes along with the steering wheel when you adjust it to your preferred driving posture.
Use the steering wheel buttons to interact with the display and control what's shown on the screen.
Examples of information that can be shown in the driver display are:
- Warning and indicator symbols
- Speed
- Navigation
- Notification messages
- Battery meter
- Power meter
Display modes
There are three driver display modes that you can choose from: calm, map and surround. Use the buttons on the steering wheel to change the display mode.
Calm | This displays essential information, such as speed, battery level and range, as well as warning and indicator symbols. |
Map | The driver display shows your current navigation route on a map as well as essential driving and car information. |
Surround | In this mode, you can see a depiction of the car and its positioning on the road. The same essential information as calm mode is also displayed. |
Important
Using surround mode
Surround mode cannot perfectly depict what is really happening on the road around you, so do not rely on it when you are driving.
Warning
If the driver display turns off, doesn't turn on or is only partially legible, you must not use the car. This is because the driver will not receive warnings and car status information shown in the driver display, such as warnings and information relating to brakes, airbags or other safety systems. If there is an issue with the driver display, contact an authorised Volvo workshop.
Important
Clear space around the driver display
Do not hang or place any objects on the steering column in front of or behind the driver display. You risk damaging the driver display if an object is placed there when the steering wheel position changes.
Tip
You can change driver display settings in the centre display.
