We recommend you set up a Google account, if you don’t already have 
one. You can do that here:

Interacting with the Infotainment System with Google Built In
Interacting with the new Infotainment system is easy and as familiar 
as using your smartphone
•  Google Assistant supports natural speech. Simply say “Hey Google”  
or “OK Google” and state your command – anything from navigation  
to most things that can be answered by the internet.
•  Google can also control some in-car features, such as climate settings, 
heated seats and steering wheel.
•  Built-in Google Maps provides real-time traffic. In Pure Electric 
Volvos, it also shows public charging information, and it can estimate 
your remaining state of charge before you set out. Simply set your 
desired destination in Google Maps and the system will show you  
the predicted battery charge level upon arrival.
