I've just bought a Buick Envision 2017 Essence and I'm learning the buttons (and boy are there a lot of buttons and knobs), but there's one I haven't found clearly in the book... It's on the dashboard just right of center. Has a big 'P' on it with a sort of cone shape beside it. I know it's not the parking brake - found that adjacent to the shifter. Thinking it might be Parking Assist or Lane Keep Assist? Thank you for your assistance.

Does it look like this one?

That's the parking assist on/off button, not to be mistaken for the auto park button.

The only reason to turn that button off I have found (in other vehicles) , is if you are ever backing up with a towl vehicle attached, or sometimes snow gets crammed in the sensors, and the system will beep annoyingly until the snow is cleared out.

Aside from those 2 instances, or a malfunction with the sensors, I would leave it on all the time..... I'm not sure why that button got such an up front and center spot on the Envision dashboard - for button it doesn't get used, in reality, very much.
