it's the switch to turn the alarm on and off. flip it up and the alarm is armed, push it down and the alarm is disabled. if the alarm is armed, the little red led to the left of the steering wheel will blink. if not, it'll be solid. of course, the effects don't take place immidieatly. I think you have to start the car and turn it off before it takes effect.

EDIT: wait, it's by the gas pedal? the switch for my alarm is on the other side by the clutch...
