The instrument panel shows you information related to your driving and the vehicle itself.
The instrument panel is located in front of the driver, behind the steering wheel.
Use the steering wheel buttons to interact with the display and control what's shown on it.
The instrument panel has a menu where you can access a number of adjustment settings, view and reset the trip meter, and change how the range value and speed units are displayed. Press the menu button 
on the steering wheel to open the instrument panel menu.
Examples of information that can be shown in the instrument panel are:
- Warning and indicator symbols
- Speed
- Road sign information
- Navigation
- Notification messages
- Battery meter
- Power meter
Display modes
There are three instrument panel modes that you can choose from: calm, surround and map. Press the display mode button 
on the steering wheel to change between modes.
on the steering wheel to change between modes.| Calm | This is the default mode which displays essential information, such as speed, battery level and range, as well as warning and indicator symbols. |
| Map | The instrument panel shows your current navigation route on a map, as well as essential driving and vehicle information. |
| Surround | In this mode, you can see a depiction of the vehicle, its positioning on the road and other vehicles. The same essential information as calm mode is also displayed. |
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.
Warning
If the instrument panel turns off, doesn't turn on or is only partially legible, you must not use the vehicle. This is because the driver will not receive warnings and vehicle status information shown in the instrument panel, such as warnings and information relating to brakes, airbags or other safety systems. If there is an issue with the instrument panel, contact Polestar Customer Support.
Tip
You can change the instrument panel settings in the center display.
