Huh?

I was being serious. Sitting in one's driveway with the vehicle in "Park," what is the absolute worst that could happen by pushing a button inside the vehicle? Though they are sometimes less-than-thorough with the documentation, I have come to find that OEMs rarely put buttons for gatling guns, ejector seats, high-voltage arc flash demonstrations, or other dangerous accessories/activities right there on the dashboard. Sometimes people seem like they really ARE worried about launching a jellyfish through a window... 🤷‍♂️

What OEMs DO do (heheh) is group things together like lighting controls - whether headlights, bed lights, or... dash/interior lighting. So, sorry if you read that with snark, but that is about as nice as I get. :wink:
Someday I'll find out why people think someone is being mean by not just giving them the answer to a question they can figure out easily. At least the squid launcher I can understand a little bit.

Proof that pictograms don't always convey meaning. A dial, sun, and +/- signs seemed obvious to me.

Man the designer was nuts, beautiful cars weird logic on controls. A stop button to stop climate control is just odd. Or the glove box button.
