I recall reading about the gesture controls for the HVAC screen. So swiping two fingers up or down on the Bottom half of the HVAC screen adjusts the volume, does anyone know if there are any other functions with different gestures? (I.e., changing track)

Thanks!

I have a 2021 and don't have the quick access buttons of nav, music, phone, settings, CarPlay above my 'climate' settings. I noticed this on the configurator as well. Am I the only on that does not have this on my bottom screen (it looks super useful!)?

You probably hid them by accident. You can make them re-appear by clicking on the 3 dots/dashes in the lower middle of the screen, if I recall correctly. If not there, they are somewhere on the screen :fingerscrossed:

There are three dots that you pull down and the shortcut bar appears. You can only do that with the car in Park.

They are very useful. You have to be in Park to enable. When in Park you'll notice there is a "handle" just above the input pad. Swipe down from there.

My wife tried out a few “gestures” when the car lost power on her in the middle of the road

In addition to pressing the volume control on the wheel as @chrisk mentioned, you can press and hold the volume minus on the screen to mute.

I know it sounds like “Duh, adjust the volume down until it’s zero,” but it jumps to mute when you hold the button.

The steering wheel controls are still easier.
