Can't find my owners manual, can you tell me what this button does ...
Hey guys . . . for the past week I have been wondering what the heck the button marked 'DISP' (next to the Amb. temp button) does.
I can't find my manual anywhere plus when I push the button I don't see anything happening . . .
Can someone explain to me what it does ? It's going to drive me crazy unless I go buy a new manual.
Thanks

Question for you guys outside of the US that get a functioning auto-climate control system, does pushing that button toggle between internal and external ambient temp?

DISP....hmmmm...ah, here it is 'Deck Inelastic Sales People'
I wonder what it does?
*presses button*
<mechanical hand springs out from hidden panel on the outside of the car and pops the sales person on the nose>
Cool! I wish I had known about this option when I was negotiating the car's price last month.

DISP is for DISPLACE. Press it and the sunroof cuts loose and you fly out of the car. kind of like an ejection seat. Only press it in an emergency!
I used mine once when I thought I picked up a hot chick, when i got a closer look at her, I hit it and got the hell out of dodge.

So I downloaded the owners manual and what I see is basically for my Bose single CD this "DISP" has no function ...
Kinda weird to put a button on the dash that doesn't do anything unless I am missing something !?!?
I have pressed it a number of times andeven held it down for 10 or more seconds and nothing changes . . . has anyone found a function for this button with the single CD unit ? ?

You know, I thought that when I first got my car it turned off the display but now it doesn't. I remember being able to turn the display off but cannot seem to find a button that does it now. Maybe one of the flashes did something.

The other role for DISP was to brighten the display when driving with your lights on during the day - Australian cars have a dash light dimmer switch for night driving which dims all dash board lighting including the centre display.. My old Mazsda 6 used to work this way, but I have not checked the 8..
