Foglamp Control

Hi everyone. I've been reading the site for a few months now and love all the information that is out here. I used this site to help me decide which engine I should get when I purchased my new truck. A couple of weeks ago, I bought a 2008 F250 CC 4x4 Lariat with the 5.4. I've looked all through my manual and even done a search on the site for the answer to this question, but I can't find anything. Sorry if it has already been discussed.
My question is about the indicators on the light switch. There are 2 fog lamp indicators on the switch, one at the 10 o'clock position and one at the 7 o'clock position (and this one has an arrow pointing down beneath it). What is the 7 o'clock indicator for? When I turn my lights to automatic and pull the switch out to enable the fog lights, the indicator at the 10 o'clock position lights, but I cannot for the life of me figure out what that other indicator is for. Everything seems to be working fine, it just bugs me that I don't know why that is there. I'm sure there's a perfectly reasonable explanation and I'm just too dim to find it! Thanks!
Greg

That symbol with the arrow, although pointing down, actually means to tell you to pull the switch out for the fog lights. Just weird placement.

Thanks! It does seem odd they'd put that on there. It looks like another switch setting. I hope I'm not the only one out there that was confused by this, but it certainly wouldn't be the first time.
