Driver profiles
Many of the vehicle's settings can be adapted to the driver's personal preferences and saved inone or more driver profiles.
The personal settings made are automatically saved in the active driver profile. Each remote keyis linked to a driver profile and when this key isused, the vehicle's settings are adapted accord-ing to the specific ones saved in that profile.
Which settings are saved in driver
profiles?
The settings that can be changed in the vehicle are either personal or global .
Changes made to personal settings are saved automatically in the active (current) driver profile,assuming that this profile is not locked. See thearticle "Editing a driver profile" for additionalinformation. Changes to global settings are not saved in a specific driver profile but instead affect all driverprofiles.
Global settings
Global settings and parameters remain the same regardless of which driver profile is currentlyactive. Keyboard layout is an example of a global setting. If driver profile X is used to add additional key-board languages, these languages will also beavailable even if driver profile Y is used. This type of global change is not specific to a single driverprofile.
Personal settings
If driver profile X has been used to e.g., set the brightness for the center display, driver profile Ywill not be affected by this setting since it is spe-cific (personal) to driver profile X. See also the article "Categories in Settings view" for an overview of global and personal settings.

A remote key is not initially linked to a specific driver profile. When the key is used to unlock thevehicle/start the engine for the first time, the
Guest profile will be used.
A driver profile can be selected manually each time the vehicle is unlocked/started without aremote key being linked to that profile. When thevehicle is started, the most recently selecteddriver profile will be activated. If the key has previ-ously been linked to a driver profile, it is not nec-essary to manually select a profile when that par-ticular key is used.

Climate control systemThe vehicle is equipped with Electronic Climate Control (ECC) that cools, heats, dehumidifiesand filters the air in the passenger compartment.
4-zone climate system
4-zone system climate zones
The 4-zone climate system makes it possible to set the left- and right-side temperatures sepa-rately for the front and rears seats. All climate system settings are made from the center display and the buttons in the center con-sole. Settings for the rear seats can also bemade from the climate system panel on the rearside of the tunnel console.

Perceived temperature
The climate system regulates passenger com- partment temperature based on the perceivedtemperature, not on the actual one.
The selected passenger compartment tempera- ture is based on a physical perception relating tothe current ambient temperature, air flow, humid-ity, sunlight in the passenger compartment, etc. The system's sunlight sensor monitors the side of the car where sunlight is entering the passengercompartment. This means that the actual tem-perature may differ between the right and leftsides of the compartment, even if the tempera-ture setting is the same for both sides.

Climate system sensors The climate system's sensors help regulate the passenger compartment temperature, humiditylevel, etc.
Location of the sensors
Humidity sensor: in the rearview mirror con- sole.
Ambient temperature sensor: in the pas- senger's side door mirror.
Passenger compartment temperature sen- sor: near the center console buttons.
Sunlight sensor: on the upper side of the dashboard.
NOTE
Do not cover or block the sensors with cloth- ing or other objects.
On models equipped with the optional Interior Air Quality System, there is also an air quality sensorlocated at the climate system's air intake.

Parking climate (preconditioning)
The climate in the passenger compartment can be preconditioned and maintained, even whenthe vehicle is parked. For full functionality, the
vehicle's charging cable must be connected .
Parking climate/preconditioning and maintaining pas- senger compartment climate comfort is controlled from the Parking climate tab in the center display's Climate
view.

PreconditioningPreconditioning the vehicle before driving can help reduce wear and reduce energy consump-tion during a trip.
NOTE
Full preconditioning is only possible when the vehicle's charging cable is connected. In other cases, the passenger compartment can be cooled for 3 minutes in warm weather. This function is started from the
Parking
climate tab in the center display's Climate
view.
With the charging cable connected, precondition- ing can be started immediately or a timer functioncan start this procedure at a later time. This feature utilizes several of the vehicle's sys- tems:
• The High Voltage Coolant Heater (HVCH)warms the hybrid battery and passengercompartment in cold weather.
• In warm weather, the ventilation system willattempt to cool the passenger compartmentto the current ambient temperature.
• In warm weather, the air conditioning systemwill cool the passenger compartment to acomfortable temperature. •
The electrically heated steering wheel andseats can be activated.
• Heating for the windshield, tailgate windowand door mirrors can be activated.
If preconditioning is used in warm weather, a cer-tain amount of water may condense under thevehicle, which is normal. When preconditioning is used, this system will attempt to establish a comfortable temperature in the passenger compartment but not necessarily
the temperature currently set in the climate system .
Maintaining a comfortable passenger compartment climate
The climate in the passenger compartment can be maintained even when the vehicle is parkedand the engine is turned off (e.g., if anyoneintends to remain in the vehicle). This function can only be direct-started.This function utilizes several of the vehicle's sys- tems:
• Residual heat from the engine is used helpkeep the passenger compartment warm incool temperatures.
• In warm weather, the ventilation system willattempt to cool the passenger compartmentto the current ambient temperature.
This function will not be activated if the vehicle islocked from the outside in order to avoid using residual engine heat unnecessarily. This functionis primarily intended for use when the engine isnot running but someone remains in the vehicle.
