3. Wait a few minutes for connectivity to come back.  
Internet connection still not working?

the issue, contact an authorised Volvo workshop.  
3.5.3. Over-the-air updates  
Over-the-air updates keep your car's software up to date.  
When your car is connected to the internet, it can receive over-the-air[1] updates to keep the car's software up to date. The car  
will tell you when there is an update available to download and install by displaying a notification.  
You can also check for new software updates by going to System System details Software update in settings.  
Downloading software updates  
To be able to download a software update, your car must be connected to mobile internet and you must have approved the use  
of connected services. Your car downloads the update using a mobile network.  
Note  
You might incur data usage charges when downloading software updates. This depends on what data usage is included  
in your mobile internet contract.  
Installing software updates  
When a new software update is available, the car will download the update but it won't install it for you. You need to start the  
installation yourself, either via a notification in the centre display or in the software update view. You can also choose to post-  
pone the update so that it installs at a later time.  
You can't use your car's functions while a software update is installing, so make sure that you don't need to use your car at all  
while installing the update. The installation process only starts after you get out of your car and lock it. If you don't lock your car  
within a few minutes of starting the installation, the update will be cancelled and you can try to install it again later.  
Note  
If you really need to access your car during the installation process, you need to use the standard key's detachable key  
blade to open the car.

affect the car's systems and the software update.

3.6. Voice control  
Keep your hands on the wheel and use your voice to interact with the car via the digital assistant.  
With the help of the digital assistant, you can use voice control to carry out tasks, such as searching the internet and getting  
weather forecasts. You can also use your voice to interact with the car and control a number of its functions, including:  
Media player  
Phone  
Navigation  
Climate  
Speaking to the digital assistant  
The assistant understands everyday speech, so you don't need to know any specific voice commands to use it. You can ask the  
assistant anything and it responds by confirming what you said, then doing what you asked. It will let you know if it doesn't  
understand you.  
Note  
The voice control feature is from a third-party supplier. Availability, how to use it and how it works may vary over time  
and between regions.  
A poor internet connection may limit the number of available functions.
