Ah yes, the idiot button,  without a manual this button would appear 
to be a)useless or b) broken.  From memory (or what's left of it), it 
was supposed to be used to pick up road and emergency info from 
cities that cared to transmit, in other words it's useless.  I believe
it goes into search mode and tries a number of channels, then it becomes
annoying.  Has anyone actually received a signal from this ?
