Default What are those three buttons?

The three buttons just to the left of the steering column? I've missplaced my manual and cannot figure it out. Please help if you can.

The three buttons are a left and right arrow buttons surrounding an on/off button. Sound like they are probably for cycling through the car's options. Thanks for everyone's help and interest.

For a typical IS-F.. It will allow AFS to be turned Off/On, choose tire pressure monitor sensors (Main or 2nd set) and allow tpms air pressure initialization or reset..

For an IS-F with optional Parking Sensors, it will allow you to turn them Off/On and rear distance sensor control..

(I'm not sure about the Radar Cruise Control feature)

That’s about it..

The multi function keys only operate as JoeZ mentioned, the AFS, TPMS A/B selection, and TPMS reset...and Park Assist on/off for those with that option. This is what is displayed on the multi function display on the upper center of your speedo cluster.



Radar Cruise is only operated via the radar cruise power button (which is on the steering wheel just below the Phone/bluetooth & Display, Talk command button on the right side of the wheel.) and the main cruise control switch stalk. This is a blank spot for most of us.

Those buttons will allow you to change the setting on your TPMS, turn on and off the adaptive headlight system , and to turn on and off the park assist.
