when you say window button, i'm assuming you mean to vent the air to the windscreen? Or do you mean the electric window?

Ye sorry it's the one with the arrow pointing towards the Roof of the car. To turn it off simply press econ again.

What 'useful' information can it give you? Pressures/temps/power etc

We must have different systems. I tried a few combinations and got nothing.

My buttons are (left to right: auto
                                             Econ
                                             Off

Up/down arrows

Top row: to feet/to face/to windscreen

Up/down arrows

Quick clear windscreen
Rear window heat
Recirc


Any ideas?
