Volvo XC90: Maintenance and service / Data transfer between vehicle and workshop over Wi-Fi
Volvo workshops have a designated Wi-Fi network for data transfer between
your vehicle and the workshop. Your visit to the workshop will be easier and more
effective when diagnostics information and software can be transferred over the
workshop's network. At the workshop, your service technician can connect your
vehicle to the workshop's Wi-Fi network to perform troubleshooting and download
software. For this type of communication, the vehicle only connects to a workshop's
network. It is not possible to connect the vehicle to another Wi-Fi network (e.g.
your home network) in the same way as to a workshop's network.
Connecting with remote key
Connection is usually managed by the service technician, who will use the remote
key buttons. It is therefore important to bring a key with buttons with you when
you visit the workshop. Pressing the lock button on the remote key three times will
connect the vehicle to the workshop's Wi-Fi network.
When the car is connected to a Wi-Fi network, the
symbol appears in the center display.
WARNING
The vehicle may not be driven when it is connected to the workshop's networks
and systems.
To keep the vehicle as safe and reliable as possible, follow the Volvo service
