Door button

[Pm4]

On my 450h above the rear view mirror and next to the SOS button, there is a button that says door, anyone know what is for? I checked on the manual but cannot find any information, thanks!

In the 'On' position (pushed in), when the doors open the overhead cabin lights come on. When switched off, they don't.

Yes quite, sometime we overthink, I thought something like that would be buried in the overcomplicated settings, should have realised, next to the lights? Cheers.

Honest truth?

Quite simply, and seriously, as a time-served electrician by trade, then most of my working life as a telephone engineer, latterly a self-employed computer tech and also a radio ham, the honest truth is that if I don't know what something does, I have no qualms about poking, pressing, pulling or doing whatever, to find out what happens

Best case scenario - I learn something and store it in my little gray cells for future reference.

Worst case scenario - I either have to fix something myself if I can, or I have to pay someone else to fix it if I can't, which thankfully, doesn't happen very often.

I could never get to grips with Morse. I could learn the letters/words easy enough but the constant tone used to drive me batty!

My ears are tuned to LED Zeppelin, AC/DC, The Who, Rolling Stones and many more, but not to dits and dahs

I learnt Morse in '83, got my G1 ham licence '85. Times have changed so much since.

It's also mentioned in Deep Dive 1. A very exhaustive run through with so many little snippets like that, it is easy to miss. I only know because I saw it a couple of nights ago on my second run through 😉
