Hidden button below driver's seatbelt ??

Post by l_geh »

Hello,
This is my 1st post.
I am curious to know anyone know the function of this little button illuminated with the icon of a signal transmitting down the roof is for?
It is located below the driver's seat belt side.
Thanks.

Its to turn the alarm off before you lock the car. Just in case you leave your dog in or sumit

By pressing the button before leaving the car (the button will illuminate), you are disabling the volumetric sensors inside the car. This means that an animal won't set off the alarm. The doors are still dead-locked and the mirco switches will trigger the alarm if a door is somehow opened. :)
