We are using a 2013 Paceman at a drive in theatre. How do you leave it in ACC/accessory only mode (for the radio) with having the comfort access? I know we can just turn in the radio, but it will cut off in 30min. Is there a trick to a key fob/button press combo?

Thanks

 

If I read the manual right, you just push the start/stop button without your foot on the brake.

 

That's what I thought, but with comfort access, the key fob doesn't have to be in the slot. And then every 25-30min the radio shut off. Hmmm

 

I watched the comfort access video here, and it says if you shut the car off after it's started, the stereo will remain on and a second press of the start/stop button will turn it off. Not sure if this still has the 30 min timeout though.

I think it always has a timeout so you don't kill your battery. When I went to the drive in a few years ago, I couldn't figure out any other option than just turning the radio back on every time it turned off.

 

Thanks for the input. I ended up just turning it back on. But just curious as to a 'mode' that could do jut radio, everything else off.
