Driver discovers function of mysterious button in new car after debate on Reddit (Reddit – salzerovaa r/peugeot)
A driver, when buying a new car, became intrigued by a button he couldn’t identify, even after checking the manual and searching for information online.
The button displayed an image of a car with signals radiating from inside and the word “OFF” below it, prompting him to share his question on Reddit, asking for help in understanding its function.
The post received various comments, ranging from absurd theories such as “ejector seat” and “Wi-Fi router,” to helpful responses. More experienced users explained that the button deactivates the ultrasonic sensors of the alarm, which is useful in situations like sleeping in the car or preventing the alarm from being triggered by a pet. However, they warned about the need to reactivate the sensors later to avoid compromising the vehicle’s safety.
In the end, the driver thanked everyone for their help and was pleased to have solved the mystery. Manufacturers like SEAT emphasize that these ultrasonic sensors protect the car’s doors, windows, and interior, triggering the alarm if someone tries to break into the vehicle, such as in cases of broken windows.
