Volvo XC90: Displays and voice control / Linking a remote key to a driver profile

A remote key can be linked to a driver profile. This driver profile and all of its settings will then automatically be selected every time the vehicle is used with that particular remote key.

The first time the remote key is used, it is not linked to any specific driver profile. The Guest profile is automatically activated when the ignition is switched on.
