It just turns off the main display screen...
..then flips up your number plate, darkens all the windows and sends out a plume of black smoke to disguise your extraction. I find it useful in McDonald's carpark. Razz

I use it to switch to 360 camera - I tend to end up in tight spaces a lot driving in the city and find it useful to be able to switch immediately whilst trying to negotiate a tricky spot.

and

Long push = change source between DAB and Spotify. If the radio is crap I frequently move to spotify.


How do you do that? Do you have Spotify on the apps or is it in your phone?

And then set the double click function on the diamond for the passenger ejection seat to get rid of the missus when she starts complaining about your calorie intake with the McFood Laughing

It's to black out the cabin for night driving. When enabled the dash is dimmed to lowest level, and ambient lights and touch screen are switched off.

These guys make fun of it, but it's very helpful when you're in in a dark environment, especially if you have issues with night vision.

I’ve never bothered with programming it Pangea Green D250 90 HSE with Air Suspension, Off-road Pack, Towing Pack, Black Contrast roof , rear recovery eyes, Front bash plate, Classic flaps all round, extended wheel arch kit and a few bits from PowerfulUK Expel Clear Gloss PPF to come
2020 D240 1st Edition in Pangea Green with Acorn interior. Now gone - old faithful, no mechanical issues whatsoever ever but the leaks and rattles all over the place won’t be missed!

lt takes about a minute to assign a function to the button. lf nothing else, audio mute is always useful to have on the steering wheel.

Short: play/pause audio button. I mostly listen to podcasts via CarPlay, so "mute" isn't the right option for me.

Long: turn off Pivi screen, for night driving.
