I think the custom formatting is done only in comfort mode.

So perhaps the mode is defaulting to another one

 

Same here, very anoying!

 

I was told you need to ddjust the levels accordingly, then use the seat memory to save again and it shall carry over.

 

What custom formatting can you do?

 

Do you wear polarized sunglasses? Any issues?

 

When I wear polarized sunglasses, HUD image brightness becomes very low and it is difficult to see

 

I find this is quite annoying too...
HUD does not save your previous view style but defaults to standard view every time you restart the vehicle.
For example, if you were in directional view with the compass, it should default to that the next time you start your car. But it does not.

Have you tried a “Set” after you set it up? Apparently, “Set” does more than just seats!

 

Did "set" suggestion from SSH fix the problem?

 

Not OP, but I tried to do this and it did not remember. In Eco Pro, I put it in minimal mode and every time I get back in the car that giant diamond thing is back in the HUD. Tried to "set" it to my seat postition and it still reverts back.

 

worked when I registered my key id properly; got HUD working the way that I wanted and left and locked the car. Cannot remember if I hit "set" as well but at that time the software also needed updating so carried out that update at the same time. It also worked for my wife's key so must have done something correctly.🤗

 

Thanks, I will have to go and mess around more.

 

Mine has always stayed where I left it

 

has anyone been able to find a way to make it work consistently?

 

Mine is where I left it, always.

Do you have your profile set up? Does it get selected when you get in the car? Have you used Set with your profile?

 

yes, tried w profile and set button (which I don't believe is design to lock this configuration)...keeps resetting after a certain time (think it's ~30 min). which combination works for you?

 

That's just weird. Mine never changes! After I set up my HUD, I have used Set - 1. The manual says it saves the location of where the HUD displays:

Memory function

Principle
The following settings can be stored and, if necessary, retrieved using the memory function:

▷ Seat position.
▷ Exterior mirror adjustment.
▷ Depending on the equipment: height of the Head-up display

 

"height of the head-up display" - yes, but not the format

 

When I set the format, it never changes.

Are you moving between profiles somehow? I don't know why it would change the HUD format.

 

This was annoying me but someone gave me the answer the other day. It’s in the HUD settings - turn off one of the settings - driving mode display or something. It means that my HUD is now in Standard mode when I switch between Comfort, Eco and Sport. You can always put the daft diamond up via the steering wheel !

I’ve also turned off the annoying splash screens on the main nav screen when you change modes.
