Volvo XC90: Displays and voice control / Instrument panel
The instrument panel displays information related to the vehicle and driving.
The instrument panel contains gauges, indicators and monitoring and warning symbols. What is shown in the instrument panel varies depending on the equipment, settings and functions currently active.
The instrument panel is activated as soon as a door is opened, i.e. in ignition mode 0. The panel will power down after a short period of time if it is not used. To reactivate it, do one of the following:
- Depress the brake pedal.
- Activate ignition mode I.
- Open one of the doors.
The instrument panel is available in two versions: 8" and 12" * .
WARNING
If the instrument panel turns off, does not activate when the ignition is switched on, or part/all of the panel cannot be read, do not drive the vehicle. Consult a workshop immediately. Volvo recommends an authorized Volvo workshop.
WARNING
If the instrument panel is not functioning properly, information about brakes, airbags or other safety-related systems may not be displayed. The driver will then not be able to check the status of the vehicle systems or receive relevant warnings and information.
