What is this button for?
 
I got this button next to the steering wheel. What does it do?

Self destruct?

The symbol looks like a potentiometer so it's probably some kind of light dimmer... Try turning your lights on and pressing it and see if your dash lights get dimmer/brighter...

If your car doesn't explode it's probably not self destruct.

Do you have the owners manual?

If I don't hear back from you I'll assume it's a self destruct button :P

Nope, it's not a light dimmer. nor self destruct button.

Found what it is. It's a button to heat the windshield where the wipers rest. In case of ice I'm assuming.

Neat. That's a nice feature.
