There is a mini visor just forward of the overhead interior lights and just in front of the rearview mirror. Its used to block the glare of the lights at night for the rear view mirror. Very clever.

Smile In the glovebox there is a pen holder or maybe used for a tire guage,

I bought mine with it empty so can only speculate what it holds.

If you have air suspension, you have a hose with psi readout that connects under the front passenger seat. Besides fillng up your spare, you can easily use it to fill up bike, er stroller tires as well.....

Don't forget the "Rest" button on the Climate controls, perfect for keeping the chill out of your Cayenne if your running into a store, office etc... for a short time.

Rear glass

There is a switch under the rear hatch wiper mount to open the rear glass.

There is a little light under the rearview mirror that lights up the dash so you can see to adjust the vents and other controls.

There are two additional 12 volt outlets under the glove box area!

The nav/sound system can be turned on even with the key not inserted!

Do you know how to turn this light off/on? Is it supposed to stay on at all times?

Hold the "Auto" button to switch to "Mono" mode. Now driver/passenger temperatures will both change when you change the temp.

I don't know how to turn it off. I think it's on any time the headlights are on, but I'm not sure. It is a very low level light, just enough so you can see to operate the controls. In fact, I didn't even know that it was there until I rode in the passenger seat the other day. While driving, I just used the controls without even thinking about why I could see them and how they were lit.

If you have the Light Comfort Package "Auto on/off headlights you have mood lighting in your foot wells, rear floor and front and rear armrests. The switch is up by the driver map light it has a little triangle on it and is next to the map light on and off switch. When its dark out, headlights on, simply hold the button down until you see light in all locations. I have found most people that have this option don't know about it. Helps you not feel like your driving a cave

I LOVE having that option, it makes you feel at home in your car, it's not distracting at all, as in it's description "comfort lighting"! (especially if she has nice legs)
