How many times have you set of the panic alarm doing that?

I'm just glad we don't have the panic function in Germany...

To get a map to impress friends or to look for streets, I found that I only needed to say 'map'. This opens the north pointing map. Similarly, 'fm' for the radio and then use the buttons on the wheel to find something nice.

Not once.

Thanks to the forum, I've avoided setting off the panic alarm and I've avoided the first too-sharp turn with active steering.

Peace.

Ice, you just don't realize how exciting it can be. Five seconds of absolute mini terror!

Either I've gotten the timing down right or they adjusted something in the software because I haven't set off the panic in a while.

I've only had the software for a few days so I'm thinking it's more just me adjusting my timing.

Either way, it's clear that it acts differently than the E39!

Is the panic using the alarm siren or the horn ?

Yeah, it's especially hell for me since I'm usually standing right there!
