Driver profiles
Many of the vehicle's settings can be custom-ized to the driver's personal preferences andsaved in one or more driver profiles.
These personal settings are automatically savedin the active driver profile. Each key can be linkedto one driver profile. When the linked key is used,the vehicle is customized to the specific settingsof that driver profile.
Which settings are saved in driver
profiles?
Many of the settings made in the vehicle will beautomatically stored in the active driver profile ifthe profile is not protected. The vehicle has set-tings that can be made either personal or global.The personal settings are saved in driver profiles.
Settings that can be saved in a driver profileinclude, among other things, screens, mirrors,front seats, navigation*, audio and media system,language and voice control.
Some settings are global settings. These settingscan be changed but are not saved to a specificdriver profile. Changes to global settings affect allprofiles.
Global settings
Global settings and parameters do not changewhen driver profiles are changed. They remainthe same regardless of which driver profile is cur-rently active.
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 for driver profile Y. The settings for key-board layout are not saved to a specific driverprofile - the settings are global.
Personal settings
If driver profile X has been used to e.g., set thebrightness for the center display, driver profile Ywill not be affected by this setting. It will only besaved to driver profile X because brightness set-ting is a personal setting.
