Theres this Knob you can turn near the top front inside the glove compartment.
Its a knob that you can turn left or right .. Looks pretty much like the one you use to adjust the amount of air flow that comes out of the vents.
Does anyone know what is the use of this? its not in the manual.

haha... i did the same thing when i first saw that. it was trippin me out.

that knob controls the air circulation in the glove compartment. why that's there and what function it really serves can be debated, i guess. but if you can actually feel some air coming in from there.

Or an iPod for that matter since that's where the integration cord is.

Thats the super secret HP knob! When you turn it on full, your car gets an extra 50HP!
