Volvo XC90: Driver support / Activating or deactivating Connected Safety
For Connected Safety to be able to share information about road conditions
with other drivers, the function must be activated. If you do not wish to share
information, the function can be deactivated.
Activate or deactivate the function
using this button in the center display's Function view.
- Illuminated button indicator light – the function is activated.
- Extinguished button indicator light – the function is deactivated.
At activation, the driver must accept the special terms and conditions shown
in the display before an Internet connection1 can be established. The
driver must, for example, accept that data is sent from the vehicle using the driver's
cellular phone.
Even when your vehicle is not connected to the Internet, you will still be notified
if the system in your own vehicle detects slippery road conditions. For Connected
Safety to function at full capacity, your vehicle needs to be connected to the Internet.
1 There may be a charge for transmitting data over the Internet, depending
on your service plan.
(Not available in all markets.)

via the Internet1. The function is designed to notify the driver of any
