There is a small button you can see when you open the glove box on the left side that says “set”. What does this do? ---

I believe that button is to initialize the tire pressure monitor. Is there a profile of a tire on that switch? ---

My 2004 Corolla is missing the button to enable the “Cloak of Invisibility”. Is that because I opted for a basic model without power windows/locks/seats, etc? ---

Since you’re so quick to judge, the owner’s manual has over 600 pages. Have you read all 600 pages of your owner’s manual? And do you remember everything? On top of that, many of the manuals I’ve read have poor indices, making it difficult to find information. The manual cited above doesn’t even call it a button, it calls it a switch, and it doesn’t even mention the words “glove box” or “glove compartment” in the description. I don’t know if the OP tried to look it up or not, but it’s very possible s/he did and couldn’t find anything. The manual of our Honda Odyssey had a page near the front with a picture of all the warning lights on the dashboard and a key showing what page the relevant information was on. That is the single most useful page of the manual because it made it easy to find information quickly. Unfortunately, that’s the exception, not the rule. ---

Never heard of that but it says to park in a safe place, then adjust the tire pressure. So you better park in a safe place with access to an air compressor or ignore the park in a safe place and adjust the tire pressure before hand. I assume a lawyer needed to have that put in.
