If you are asking about how to activate it, see post 19. I don't think the Owner's Manual covers this feature since no one has been able to find it.I drive a 2016 Platinum and I could see only Lane assist Icon instead of the digital speedo. Can you please explain how u found it?
No need to assume Dean. It shows in the margin. That is one reason I'm always asking members to add the 'trim' level to their profile. It's the first place I look when replying.Julie, I'm assuming you have an Explorer Platinum.
Lane assist is in settings.
Are you sure it isn't "stalk"?You set the options in Settings but you enable & disable (turn it on/off) using the end of the lever on the left side. Apparently that lever is called a stack.
If I have both the adaptive cruise control & the lane assist on, will both display
Both will display. surprised you haven't tried it. Regarding the digital speedo, both cruise and lane assist have to be off. With all the real estate available on the Platinum display you'd think they could have offered more functions. What can be so difficult about displaying a digital readout?
We're going to Canada but the the speedo doesn't show kilometers, only MPH. You can't see which gear you're in unless you shift to Sport, and then, unless you're a teenager with 20/10 vision you'll not see the tiny numbers, 1-6.
Sorry to jump on your thread but it's all part of the same Ford story. What a beautiful car with such sloppy electronic user interface. I bought the Platinum for the engine and I'm happy but after owning 5 Explorers I'm used to the disappointments.
oops,sure didn't see or find the km/h, my apologies peterI'm guessing that the digital speedo doesn't show with Active Cruise Control on because the speed has been set at a 'known' number so it wouldn't be necessary to show the readout. Like I said, just a guess.
Also, I believe, looking at the Manual, that you can change MPH to Km/h in the settings.
Digital speedometer - x.. MPH - Press OK for km/h

No apology needed. Glad to be able to help out.oops,sure didn't see or find the km/h, my apologies peter
Peter, after digging through the menus I've finally got the display as close as I can to what I need. I would have preferred that the speedo converted to kilometers, removing MPH entirely. I'd also like to see a larger display of the transmission positions. What gear am I in? Since we now have paddles that work in the Drive and Sport positions it would be nice to have a continuous display. The tiny display in the bottom of the LCD might be okay for folks with 20/10 vision but most of us are less adept at seeing the small graphics. Maybe Ford could add a selection allowing a change in font sizes, like the iPhone.No apology needed. Glad to be able to help out.

What does the analog speedo look like when converted to kilometers? Most that I've seen always show both but your picture just shows MPH. Thanks for posting.I can confirm the digital speed readout option was moved to the center display on the 2017 Platinum. It is the 4th choice under Entertainment, Phone & Nav. The Lane Keeping Assist, Adaptive Cruise (when selected) and posted speed limit information remain on the right inside the "analog" speedo.
