2012 Explorer Limited question

In our new Limited, under the headlight control, there are three switches: the one on the right is for the Park Assist, the one in the middle is for TOW, and on the left is a switch that has a squiggly line on it with a circle at the end. Help! I cannot locate this in the owners manual!! What it this button for???? Thanks!!

I don't have 3 switches but just one. The far left switch controls the rear back hatch door on mine. No park assist or tow for me.

BTW, how do you like the park assist?

The left button = Power Liftgate
Center button = TOW
Right button = Park Assist

I thank you both for the replies! So far, so good, but the MyFordTouch will take a while to get used to. A lot of comfort; the Limited I have has every option except the DVD player, which I would not want anyway. Mine does have the Park Assist option; however, I have not tried it. I'll let you know.....

Thanks again for the replies - - - I appreciate i.
