Not sure how to upload a picture. But its on the drivers side near the door below the seatbelt panel.  Image of a car with what looks like the 'wifi' sign. Im guessing something to do with the alarm?

The button should have a top and a bottom no?

One is for interior sensors as stated i.e. if you left a pet in the car and locked it. (Don't put a pet on your leather seats)

The other turns off the jacking sensor that would go off is someone tried jacking your car up to steal your alloys. Useful for when your car is being towed away and you want to leave the alarm on.

Could be year dependant as mine only has the single button to turn off interior sensors.
