Display views

Learn about some of the views that you can see in the main area of the display.

The different bars provide status information, display shortcuts to apps or quick controls, and allow you to navigate around the display views. The main views let you use and access navigation information, in-car apps, climate, car status and settings. There are also some specialised views for managing specific car functions.

Display bars

The status bar is located at the top of the main area of the display, underneath the driver information area. It shows you symbols relating to the car's status and apps, along with the time and outside temperature. You can press the right-hand side of the status bar to access some quick controls for a selection of system settings as well as get to the profile picker and settings view.

The bottom bar is your main way of navigating around the display views. By pressing the symbols, you can get to other views and functions as well as bring up the comfort view and activate the hazard warning lights. The status bar and bottom bar are always visible, regardless of which view you are looking at.

In some views, you will see the contextual bar appear above the bottom bar. This bar contains shortcuts to recently used functions or apps that only appear when you can use them. Sometimes these shortcuts are replaced by quick controls which allow you to control ongoing phone calls and media when the associated views or widgets aren't visible.

 Note

Driver distraction overlay

What you can see and do in the main area of the display sometimes depends on whether the car is moving or not. To minimise driver distraction while the car is moving, some views become unavailable, such as certain settings. When this happens, the display shows the driver distraction overlay. When the car stops moving, the overlay disappears and you can interact with the view again.
