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.
Subcategories
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.

If driver profile X was used to e.g. set centre
display brightness, driver profile Y is not affec-
ted by this setting. It has been saved to driver
profile X - the brightness setting is a personal
setting.
What settings are saved in the driver
profiles?
Factory reset
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 pro-
files.

WARNING
Voice control16 allows you to control func-
tions 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.
The driver always holds overall responsibil-
ity for driving the vehicle in a safe manner
and complying with all applicable rules of
the road.

What is voice control?
Voice control is an aid that can facilitate the
use of different commands in your car. In prin-
ciple, 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 com-
mand should be spoken in order to achieve the
desired result.
Managing a saved message
Some messages have a button for e.g. activat-
ing/deactivating a function linked to the mes-
sage.
–
Press the button to perform the action.
Saved messages in the top view are deleted
automatically when the car is switched off.
Voice control system microphone
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 informa-
tion in the driver display.
