Downloading Software And Replacing The Control Module: General

Software can be downloaded to the integrated audio module (IAM). When software is ordered, the vehicle' software and hardware is compared to Volvo's central database. If they are compatible, the software is downloaded to the system.

If the comparison between the car and Volvo's central database does not correspond, the database is updated with the vehicle's configuration. When this is complete, new software is downloaded.

It is also possible to save the software on a USB-memory and update the software in Infotainment control module (ICM) via the USB-port. For vehicles equipped with 5 inch screen the USB-port is hidden behind a hatch on Infotainment control module (ICM). For vehicles equipped with 7 inch screen the USB-port is located on Integrated Audio Module (IAM)
