I bought a C3 second hand from a private seller on a 54 plate. It is a Desire 1.1 model. Unfortunately the car did not come with a handbook and there are two buttons on the dashboard (next to the CD player) that i dont know what do.

 

The buttons are of a clock with a flag......and a stick man with a key

 

I would like to know what these do as it is bugging me!!

Clock with a flag..........over speed warning button:

The overspeed control function warns the driver by an audible signal, via the switch module under the steering wheel, that the set speed fixed by the driver or pre-programmed into the BSI has been exceeded . There are thus 2 types of possible memorisation :

  • With threshold programmable by the driver
  • With threshold pre-programmed into the BSI via the diagnostic tool (fixed threshold)

Activation and deactivation of the overspeed alert

 

A press on the button activates or deactivates the overspeed alert function . On activation of the function, the set speed taken into account is the last one memorised . N.B. : If the overspeed control function is active, the button on the dashboard is lit up .

Modification of the overspeed alert

A long press on the button memorises the current vehicle speed as the set speed .

 

 

The other button you mention activates/deactivates child locks to the rear doors.....which in effect activates or deactivates the rear interior door handles......worth checking it works as quite often on early models they didnt
