Display, software and phone -> Warning and indicator symbols for Your Volvo EX30 4 Door First Generation (2025-2026)

Driver information area display modes  
While driving, there are two display modes you can choose from: calm and surround. If the customisable button  
on the  
steering wheel has the display mode switching function assigned to it, press the button to change display mode. You can read  
more about the steering wheel's customisable button in a separate section of the manual.  
This displays essential information, such as speed, battery level and range, as well as warning and indicator symbols.  
Calm  
In this mode, you can see a depiction of the car, its positioning on the road and other vehicles. The same essential information as calm mode is also displayed.  
Surround  
Important  
Using surround mode  
Surround mode cannot perfectly depict what is really happening on the road around you, so do not rely on it when you  
are driving.  
3.1.2.1. Warning and indicator symbols  
The symbols in the driver information area tell you the status of different systems in your car. Some indicate  
whether a system is active and operating as it should, and others alert you to important information or  
detected faults.  
Symbol types and colours  
Some symbols are warnings that require immediate action, while others indicate the current status of specific functions. The  
symbol colour roughly signifies the level of importance. Red symbols are the most critical while amber symbols represent less  
urgent warnings and alerts. Symbols of other colours typically convey status information about the car's functions.  
Tip  
Be sure to look up the meaning of symbols you are unfamiliar with. Many symbols will appear with a notification  
providing more information.
