instructional manuals are good
no really they are! i am a stubborn individual at times (being a wife and mother can really change one - for the better) but i usually do NOT read an instruction manual...too boring/too long/why bother...but recently i found out some very good reasons why God actually created them. ever since we bought our new minivan, there would be times when i would come out to the car and all the windows would be down-sometimes just a crack, other times all the way down...after this incident happened about 10 times, thus confirming the fact in my mind that i was not crazy...not sure why i let this go on for so long....especially when you get out of target only to find it raining inside the car....i was on the verge of driving this thing over to the honda dealer and telling them that they sold me a defective/possessed van when my stubborn self thought that maybe i was doing something to the car to make this 'window thing' happen...well, after some heavy duty reading in the manual...i was in fact causing the windows to go down...how? when you unlock the doors once - the driver side unlocks, when you push the unlock button again - all the doors unlock AND if you continue to hold the unlock button after the second hit...all the windows go down until you release the button !!! who ever thought or that and more importantly why and i will go have my eyes examined soon because one would think that after all this time, i would have at least SAW the windows going down. but here is the funny part, i love this option, now that i know it exists...it helps to cool the car down before you even get to it so you don't have that wave of heat hit you when you open the door....cool stuff...kinda wondering what else this car/computer/appliance/gameboy can do if i only took the time to do a little reading...maybe i'll throw a couple instruction manuals on the coffee table...peace in all things today!
