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.

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.
