I bought a mk 3 colour edition in september and have just noticed a button on the door post next to the driver's seat, does anyone know what it does?

As the Owners Manual will tell you.

You use if you want to put off the internal sensors say if you leave a pet in the car. (with windows open a bit...)

Have the car on a ferry, on the back of a transporter.   When you do not want the alarm going off.

Ok, thank you I had a look in there but didnt manage to find it, but thanks for your help

My question is - why did they pick Amber or Red light?

 

What is what, always forget!

If its like the ones in the VW's it will also disable safelock..so if someone breaks a window they can undo the doors from inside...

 

the reason is basically its to arm the car if kids/other people are in ...nobody else can get in but they can get out in emergency...
