Is it possible to disable the chime you get when the ignition is on but the drivers door is open? I've tried the obvious thing of disabling both info and warning chimes in the menu but this made no difference. It's so annoying when using the car vac having it bonging away for ages!

    Yeh, for some reason the vac never works without the ignition on. Phone charger does though, unless I've already tried the vac in which case the phone doesn't work either. No idea what's going on there!
