Most of don't take the time to read a manual cover to cover and we often miss some neat features in our vehicle. What have you found recently that was a pleasant surprise?

Two things I didn't know and just figured out:

1. You can lock the car by touching a ridged section of the door handle.
2. Hold down both unlock/lock for five seconds and then you will a double beep. After that, all doors open on keyless entry.

I'm still struggling with voice commands, is there an easy guide with all the terminology?

considering the first tip, it is useful for smart key users. touching the handle without even pulling out the key to press buttons will unlock the driver door only by default. from there you'll have to use the door's internal unlock buttons to unlock all doors for everyone else if you have passengers.

thus tip 2 changes that such that touching the handle will unlock all doors at that moment so that you dont have to press the unlock button on the door panel.

i personally leave mines to unlock only the driver door since i rarely have passengers.

heres another tip: if set to only unlock driver door, you can still unlock all doors by touching the front passenger door handle--if you feel chivalrous :thumbsup:.
