    ^ Yeah, that's real helpful.

    The 3 beeps happen because you have at some point pressed the MEMO button on your OBC (you should see a little sound wave symbol next to the clock display). It beeps 3 times a few seconds before the top of the hour.

    To turn it off, simply press the MEMO button; the symbol should extinguish from the display and it will beep no more.

    And last week, and the week before that one, and the one before that. And every other day before that.

    It's more than a few seconds. More like then, if the default is used. Not many people know you can set the time by holding the memo button pressed.

    Default is : .00 which is around 10 seconds before the hour
    You can set it from anywhere .00 to 0.59, where 0.59 would mean it will beep just after the hour has past.

    Yep, I actually just learned today that you can set it sifting through the PDF owner's manual ... you learn something new every day.

    And there's still so much to find out about your car. Nothing better than finding new buttons and switches to push.
