I have to tell you, it took me a while. I was wondering how to put in Cd's without having to start up the car.....as I am too lazy to open then close the garage biggrin.....and I thought by pressing the brakes softly and pushing the "start" button it would work and to my surprise it did.

Come on Alex read the manual biggrin, pressing the start button without pressing the brake puts the car into accessory mode which powers up the stereo etc without starting the car. There's lots of good info in that manual you know biggrin

Also works in the usual way with foot on brake. Just take your finger off the button before the starter motor cranks up.

Whoa, whoa, buddy. Calm down. I am Pre-Dental student and you would believe the amount of reading/studying I have to do. When I have free time the last thing I want to do is read something.
