Driver display
The driver display shows information about the car and driving. The driver display contains gauges, indicators and indicator and warning symbols. The con-tent of the driver display depends on the car’s equipment, settings and which functions are active at that time. The driver display is activated as soon as a door is opened, i.e. in ignition position 0. The driver display extinguishes after a while if it is not used.
To reactivate it, proceed with one of the following:
- Depress the brake pedal.
Activate ignition position I. - Open one of the doors.
- WARNING
- If the driver display should extinguish, not illuminate on activation/start or be fully or partially illegible, the car must not be used. You should visit a workshop immediately. Volvo recommends an authorised Volvo workshop.
- WARNING
In the event of a fault in the driver display the information on e.g. brakes, airbags or other safety systems may not be shown. In which case, the driver cannot check the status of the car’s systems or receive cur-rent warnings and information.
The figure is schematic – parts may vary depending on car model.

Hybrid gauge
In drive modes Hybrid and Pure, the driver display shows a hybrid gauge that can help the driver to drive the car in a more energy-efficient way.
The hybrid gauge shows in different ways the relationship between how much power is being taken from the electric motor and how much power is available.
Symbols in the hybrid gauge
Indicates current level for available electric motor power. If the symbol is filled in, it means that the electric motor is in use.
If the symbol is not filled in, it means that the electric motor is not in use.
Indicates the power level when the combustion engine starts. If the symbol is filled in, it means that the combustion engine is in use.
Indicates the power level when the internal combustion engine is due to start. If the symbol is not filled in, it means that the combustion engine is not in use.
Indicator that shows that the hybrid battery is being charged e.g. if the brake pedal is gently depressed.
Driver-requested power
The pointer in the hybrid gauge indicates the amount of engine power requested by the driver by regulating the accelerator pedal. The higher the reading on the scale, the more power is requested by the driver in the current gear. The marker between the lightning flash and the drop shows the point at which the internal combustion engine starts.
Example:
The car is started but stationary, no power is requested.
The electric motor cannot supply the amount of engine power requested and the internal combustion engine starts.
The car generates current to the battery, the battery is charged, e.g. when the brake pedal is pressed lightly or during engine braking down a hill.

Hybrid battery gauge
The hybrid battery gauge shows how much energy there is in the hybrid battery.The energy in the hybrid battery is used for the electric motor, but also to cool or heat the car. The trip computer calculates an approximate distance for the energy left in the hybrid battery.
Symbols in the hybrid battery gauge
The symbol in the hybrid battery gauge indicates that the Hold function is activated, and the symbol indicates that the Charge function is activated.

Trip computer
The car’s trip computer records vales such as e.g. distance, fuel consumption and average speed whilst driving. In order to facilitate fuel-efficient driving, information is recorded about both instantaneous and average fuel consumption. The information from the trip computer can be shown in the driver display.
Examples of trip computer information in the driver display. The figure is schematic – parts may vary depending on car model.
The following meters are included in the trip computer:
- Trip meter
- Odometer
- Instantaneous fuel consumption
- Distance to empty tank
- Distance to empty battery
- Tourist – alternative speedometer
Units for distance, speed, etc. can be changed via system settings in the center display.
Trip meter
There are two trip meters, TM and TA. TM can be reset manually and TA is reset automatically if the car is not used for at least four hours. The following information is registered while driving:
- Mileage
- Driving time
- Average speed
- Average fuel consumption
The values apply from the trip meter’s latest reset.
Odometer
The odometer records the car’s total mileage. This value cannot be reset to zero.
Instantaneous fuel consumption
This gauge shows the fuel consumption that the car has at the moment. The value is updated approximately every second.
Distance to empty tank
The trip computer calculates the remaining mileage with the fuel available in the tank.
The calculation is based on the average fuel consumption over the last 30 km (20 miles) and the remaining drivable fuel quantity. When the gauge shows “—-“, there is not enough fuel left to be able to calculate the remaining mileage. Refuel as soon as possible.
NOTE
There may be a slight deviation if the driving style has been changed. An economic driving style generally results in a longer driving distance.
Distance to empty battery
The approximate distance that can be driven with the remaining amount of energy in the hybrid battery is indicated adjacent to this symbol.
The calculation is based on the average consumption of the normally loaded vehicles, during normal driving and taking into account whether the air conditioning (AC) is switched on or off. When changing between the Hybrid and Pure drive modes, the calculated distance increases since the Pure mode has reduced climate settings (ECO climate).
No guaranteed range on electric power remains when the gauge shows “—-“.
NOTE
There may be a slight deviation if the driving style has been changed.
An economic driving style generally results in a longer driving distance.
Start value for fully charged hybrid battery
Since it is difficult to anticipate driving style and other factors that affect the range for electric operation, Volvo has decided to use a start value when the car is fully charged. The start value indicates an up-to figure instead of a forecast for the range for electric operation. The difference in start value between Hybrid and Pure is due to the car being allowed to use more energy from the hybrid battery in Pure mode, as well as that the car changes over to ECO\ climate.
Mileage for electric operation
In order to achieve the longest possible mileage for electric operation, the driver of an electrically powered car also has to think about energy conservation. The more consumers there are (stereo, electric heating in windows/mirrors/seats, very cold air from the climate control system, etc.) that are active – the shorter the potential mileage.
NOTE
In addition to high current take-off in the passenger compartment, sudden acceleration and braking, high speed, heavy loads, low outside temperature and uphill gradients also reduce the possible driving distance.
Tourist – alternative speedometer
The alternative digital speedometer makes it easier to drive in countries where speed limit signs are in a different unit than that shown in the car’s instruments. The digital speed is then shown in the oppo-site unit to that shown in the analog speedometer. If the analog speedometer is graduated in mph, the digital speedometer shows the corresponding speed in km/h and vice versa.

Show trip statistics in the center display
Trip statistics from the trip computer are dis-played graphically in the centre display and provide an overview that facilitates more fuel-efficient driving.
Open the Driver Performance app in app view in order to show the trip statistics. Each bar in the diagram symbolists a distance of 1, 10 or 100 km, alternatively miles. The bars are filled in from the right as driving progresses. The bar on the far right shows the value for the current distance. The average fuel consumption and total driving time are calculated since the last time the trip statistics were reset. Fuel and electricity consumption are shown in separate graphs. Electricity consumption is “net” consumption, i.e. energy consumed minus regenerated energy created during braking.

Navigating in the centre display’s views
There are five different basic views in the centre display: home view, top view, climate view, app view and function view. The screen is started automatically when the driver’s door is opened.
Home view
Home view is the view that is shown when the screen is started. It consists of four subviews: Navigation, Media, Phone and an extra sub-view.
An app or car function selected from the app or function view starts in the respective sub-view of the home view. E.g. FM radio starts in the Media tile.
The extra tile shows the last used app or car function that is not associated with any of the other three areas.
The subviews show brief information about each different app.
NOTE
When the car is started, the home view’s various sub-views show information on the current status of apps.
NOTE
In home view standard mode – briefly press the home button. An animation that describes access to the different views is shown on the screen.
Status bar
The activities in the car are shown at the top of the screen. Network and connection information is shown on the left-hand side of the status bar, while media-related information, the clock and indication that background activity is in progress are shown on the right.
Top view
Top view dragged down.
A tab is located in the centre of the status bar at the top of the screen. Open the top view by pressing on the tab or by dragging/swiping from the top downwards across the screen.
In the top view, access is always available to:
- Settings
- Owner’s manual
- Profile
- The car’s saved messages.
In the top view, access is given to the following in some cases:
Contextual setting (e.g. Navigation Settings). Change settings directly in the top view when an app (e.g. navigation) is running.
Contextual Owner’s Manual (e.g. Navigation Manual). Gain access directly in the top view to articles in the digital owner’s manual that are related to the content displayed on screen.
Exit the top view – press outside the top view, on the home button or at the bottom of the top view and drag upward. The underlying view is then visible and available for use again.
NOTE
The top view is not available during star-ting/shutdown or when a message is shown on the screen. It is also not available when climate view is shown.
Climate view
The climate row is always visible at the bottom of the screen. The most common climate settings can be made directly there, such as setting temperature and seat heating*.
Press the symbol in the centre of the climate row to open the climate view and gain access to more climate settings.
Press the symbol to close the cli-mate view and return to the previous view.
App view

Driver profiles
Many of the settings made in the car can be adapted according to the driver’s personal preferences and can be saved in one or more driver profiles.
The personal settings are automatically saved in the active driver profile. Each key can be linked to a driver profile. When the linked key is used, the car is adapted to the settings of that specific driver profile.
What settings are saved in the driver profiles?
Many of the settings defined in the car will be saved automatically in the active driver profile unless the profile is protected. In the car, the settings defined are either personal or global. Only personal settings are saved in driver profiles.
Settings that can be saved in a driver profile include, amongst other things, screens, mirrors, front seats, navigation*, audio and media system, language and voice control.
Some settings, referred to as global settings, can be changed but are not saved to a specific driver profile. Changes to global settings affect all profiles.
Global settings
The global settings are not changed when changing between driver profiles. They remain
the same regardless of which driver profile is active.
Keyboard layout settings are an example of global settings. If driver profile X is used to add additional languages to the keyboard, these remain available for use even if driver profile Y is used. The keyboard layout settings are not saved to a specific driver profile – the settings are global.
Personal preferences
If driver profile X was used to e.g. set centre display brightness, driver profile Y is not affected by this setting. It has been saved to driver profile X – the brightness setting is a personal setting.

Voice recognition
Voice control17 allows you to control functions in the car, e.g. climate system, radio or a Bluetooth-connected phone with spoken commands. In cars equipped with Sensus Navigation*, the navigation system can also be controlled with voice recognition.
What is voice control?
Voice control is an aid that can facilitate the use of different commands in your car. In principle, it works like a normal application in which you enter information in a fixed sequence in order to perform a task, but instead of typing on a keyboard you use voice commands. It may therefore be a good idea to learn how, and in what order, a voice command should be spoken in order to achieve the desired result.
The voice control system allows you to control certain infotainment and climate functions using voice commands. The system can respond with speech and by showing information in the driver display.
WARNING
The driver always holds overall responsibility for driving the vehicle in a safe manner and complying with all applicable rules of the road.
NOTE
Not all system languages support voice recognition. The ones that do are high- lighted with the symbol in the list of available system languages. Read more about where the information can be found in the section on settings for voice recognition.
In general, the system works by listening for a basic command which is followed by more detailed commands that specify what you want the system to do.
To change the system audio volume, turn the rotary volume knob when the voice speaks. It is possible to use other buttons during voice control. However, other sounds will be silenced during dialogue with the system, which means that it is not possible to execute any functions linked with audio using the buttons.
Cancel voice control
Voice control can be cancelled in different ways:
Voice control is also cancelled if you do not reply during a dialogue. The system will first ask for a reply three times and if there is still no response then voice control will be cancel-led automatically.
To speed up communication and skip the prompts from the system, press the steering
wheel button for voice control . This cancels the system voice and you can say the next command.
Example of voice recognition control
- Press .
- Say “Call [Forename] [Surname]
[number category]”, e.g. “Call Robin Smith Mobile”.
The system dials the selected contact from the phonebook. If the contact has several phone numbers (e.g. home, mobile, work), the right category must be referred to.
Commands/phrases
The following commands can generally be used, regardless of the situation:
- “Repeat” – repeats the last voice instruction in the ongoing dialogue.
- “Cancel” – discontinue the dialogue.19
- “Help” – starts a help dialogue. The system replies with the commands available in the current situation, a prompt or an example.
Commands for specific functions such as phone and radio are described in specific sections.
Digits
The number commands are stated differently depending on the function to be controlled:
- Phone numbers and postcodes must be spoken individually, number by number, e.g. “zero, three, one, two, two, four, four, three” (03122443).
House numbers can be spoken individually or in groups, e.g. “two, two” or “twenty-two” (22). For English and Dutch, several groups can be said in sequence, e.g. “twenty-two, twenty-two” (22 22). For English, double or triple can be used, e.g. “double zero” (00). Numbers can be given within the range 0-2300. - Frequencies can be spoken as “ninety-eight point eight” (98.8), “a hundred and four points two” or “hundred-four point two” (104.2).
Speed and repetition mode
It is possible to adjust the speed if the system is speaking too quickly.
Repetition mode can be enabled so that the system repeats what you have said.
To change the speed or activate/deactivate repetition mode:
- Press Settings in the top view.
- Press System Voice Control and select Settings.
- Repeat Voice Command
- Speech Rate

Controlling a telephone with voice recognition20
Call a contact, have messages read aloud or dictate brief messages with voice control commands to a Bluetooth connected telephone.
To specify a contact in the phone book, the voice recognition command must include contact information that is entered in the phone book. If a contact, e.g. Robyn Smith, has several phone numbers then the number category can also be stated, e.g. Home or Mobile:
“Call Robin Smith Mobile”.
Press and say one of the following commands:
- “Call [contact]” – dials the selected con-tact from the phone book.
- “Call [phone number]” – dials the phone number.
- “Recent calls” – displays the call list.
- “Read message” – message is read out. If there are several messages – select which message should be read out.
- “Message to [contact]” – the user is requested to say a brief message. The message is then repeated aloud and the user can choose to send21 or revise the message. For this function to work, the car must be connected to the Internet.
