Volkswagen ID.7: Customizable vehicle settings

The vehicle functions that can be set depend on the equipment. Some functions that can be personalized are not stored online, rather only assigned locally to the user profile in the vehicle.

The following functions can be personalized:

• Windshield wiper settings.
• Seat settings
• Low beam headlight turning on times and 3-blink turn signal settings.
•  Climate control system settings
• Driving data menu and selection of displays in the Volkswagen Digital Cockpit.
• Driver assistance systems settings.

Synchronising vehicle settings

Vehicle settings that are changed in the vehicle are automatically assigned to the active user profile and stored online periodically. The vehicle settings are synchronized automatically with the data saved online in the following situations, when there is an internet connection:

• When switching on the ignition and the Infotainment system: synchronizes all recently used Volkswagen user accounts saved in the vehicle.
• When switching to another Volkswagen user account: synchronizes the newly activated and the now deactivated Volkswagen user account.
• At the end of the trip and when switching off the ignition: synchronizes the Volkswagen user account that was last active.

You can also start synchronization manually at any time in the user administration menu, e.g. if automatic synchronization upon login was not successful. Synchronization cannot take place automatically if the vehicle's online status is impaired, e.g. in underground garages, or if you have activated the "Maximum privacy settings" mode.

If an inactive user profile is active in another vehicle and if settings are synchronized from there, these settings will also be loaded to your vehicle and assigned to the corresponding user profile.
