Your Volvo has been updated!
Volvo Cars is constantly improving in-car systems and the services offered to
customers to ensure that you get the best experience from your car.
Your most recent service included a software upgrade to your vehicle that
contained the improvements and modifications listed below.
• Improved logic for rear seat belt reminders. The audible signal will stop when
the vehicle stops and re-start when the vehicle is moving.
• Changed optimization for engine noise compensation. There is a slight change
in sound.
• Improved feedback for Pilot Assist: Under certain conditions, the steering
wheel vibrates slightly when Pilot Assist steering assistance is disconnected.
Adaptive Cruise Control will remain active. This is the same vibration that is
used for Lane Keeping Aid when the vehicle is starting to veer over the lane
markings.

• Amended messages in the driver display (12-inch) for the Start/Stop function:
A start/stop symbol has replaced the texts "READY" and "OFF."
Note that this is not applicable to Twin Engine models. The Start/Stop function
switches off the engine temporarily at a standstill and then starts it
automatically when needed. Previously, a message was shown in the
tachometer when the function was available. This has been replaced with the
following symbols when the function is available:
White – Displayed in the tachometer when the function is available but the engine is
running (vehicle is in motion)
Green – Displayed in the tachometer when the function is active and the engine is
auto-stopped.
Gray – When the symbol is grayed out with a line through it, the function is not
available.
If no symbol is shown, the Start/Stop function is switched off in the Functions menu.
Example:
The function is available and the engine is auto-stopped.

• Improved searching of points of interest (POI) in the navigation system.
• Performance and stability improvements to the infotainment system.
