This board is a treasure trove of info, and being able to search it is even better, but I have some questions so basic that I don't think they've been asked. Here's my first in what will probably be a series that disproves the adage "there's no such thing as a stupid question":
1. That slot in the center console - what is it? It looks big enough to hold a credit card. Maybe it's for holding a garage pass-key? Maybe I'll destroy the car if I do jamb a passkey in there? Who knows?
2. Open the lid of the center console compartment, and there are 3 notches at the front - are those coin holders? Do you put the coin in vertically? I don't get it.
3. What do the symbols on the charger (that comes with the car) mean? There is a lightning bolt and an exclamation mark. I'm getting a Bosch charger in a few weeks (when they start shipping) but until then I'm using this thing and it disabled my first outlet, didn't seem to work on the second, and seems to be good on #3.
4. Stupidest one: whenever I approach the car it's unlocked. Is that because I'm carrying the key, or am I leaving it unlocked overnight? How do I really KNOW it's locked after I push the lock button? How far do I have to get away until it's locked, and how close until its unlocked? Like if I am 20 feet away from the car reading the paper at starbucks, can someone get in and start it (and even drive away)?
