Button on Console E 430

My friend bought a used 430 and is mystified by a small 1/2 inch square button on the console. It slides left to right. When you slide it one way the icon showing is a dot. When you slide it the other way, the icon showing is a silhouette of a man.

What does either setting mean?

child safty on the rear windows. The dot means the rear windows can be opened from the rear, the picture of a man means the driver is in control of the windows and the rear windows can not be opened from the rear switches

Man = Human control
Dot = Auto Pilot
