yes the BIG book of knowledge can be overwhelming but yes the one opens the rear slider and the other is interior lights and the one off to its right will turn off interior lights, but not door switch lights or a few others.

The light buttons confused me too.
Many more options than my old 2011.

Far too many separate buttons for things in this truck that used to be merged into single buttons 10+ years ago.

As I tell my wife: "just press it and see what happens"...

Top is sliding rear window
Bottom (I think) is all interior lights. The one above it is driver's map light.
Aha, so that's where the all interior light button is! I was just looking for it the other night. Was mainly focused on the headlight, zone light, fog light, instrument panel dimming area and couldn't find it so I just had the kids poke their reading lights in the rear. I did not think to look up there.

Seriously? You do have a built in user manual that will tell you about every single button and what it does
Not particularly helpful. Probably better to just mutter under your breath and keep on crossing by.
BTW, many of us find the built in manual cumbersome, hard to use, and frequently lacking. YMMV.

"Hard to use" is an understatement. You need to be on the team that wrote it in order to find what you need.
I was being polite. User manuals are not Ford’s strong suit. They drive me crazy.
A few months ago I was expressing frustration about finding info about something mundane (wipers? I forget). Some guy piped up and said, “what’s the problem? I did a search and found 86 entries!”
Exactly.
And none of em answered the basic question.
Rant_mode=off.

Yes I’m 63 years old.
Yes I’ve had many new vehicles.
No I’m not opposed to new ways of doing things.
Yes I want a printed manual, in a nice black protective cover, neatly fitted in my glove box for easy access and reference.
