Driver profiles
Many of the vehicle's settings can be adapted to the driver's personal preferences and saved inone or more driver profiles.
The personal settings made are automatically saved in the active driver profile. Each remote keyis linked to a driver profile and when this key isused, the vehicle's settings are adapted accord-ing to the specific ones saved in that profile.
Which settings are saved in driver
profiles?
The settings that can be changed in the vehicle are either personal or global .
Changes made to personal settings are saved automatically in the active (current) driver profile,assuming that this profile is not locked. See thearticle "Editing a driver profile" for additionalinformation. Changes to global settings are not saved in a specific driver profile but instead affect all driverprofiles.
Global settings
Global settings and parameters remain the same regardless of which driver profile is currentlyactive. Keyboard layout is an example of a global setting. If driver profile X is used to add additional key-board languages, these languages will also beavailable even if driver profile Y is used. This type of global change is not specific to a single driverprofile.
Personal settings
If driver profile X has been used to e.g., set the brightness for the center display, driver profile Ywill not be affected by this setting since it is spe-cific (personal) to driver profile X. See also the article "Categories in Settings view" for an overview of global and personal settings.
