What does this button do?

I just bought an 05 Escape and for the life of me, I can't figure out what the button with the red triangle on it does. It's the one next to the rear defrost button on the center console. I don't have the manual...

If you don't get an answer here, you could look it up at motorcraft.com in the technical area, look up the owners manual.

Button with red triangle is usually the hazard flasher switch.

Go to the link below, put in your VIN number to download your owners manual

thanks guys, I'll check out the manual link! If it is the hazards light switch, it must not be working. I'll have to check the flasher or fuse.
