Navigating in the center display's views

There are 5 different basic views in the center display: Home view, Top view, Climate view, App view and Function view. The display is activated automatically when the driver's door is opened.

Home view

Home view is displayed when the screen is activated. It consists of four sub-views: Navigation, Media, Phone and an extra sub-view. The extra sub-view contains the most recently used app/vehicle function that is not related to the other three sub-views. For example, if the most recently used app/vehicle function is a music app, the Media sub-view will be displayed.

The sub-views display brief information about the respective apps.

The first time the vehicle is started, some of the Home view's sub-views will not contain any information.

 Note

  • In Home view's standard mode (reached by pressing the Home button briefly), an animation explaining how to access the different views will be shown on the screen.
  • Some functions may be disabled when the vehicle is moving.
