My first post ever, on any thread: Is there a way to set the default screen on the infotainmemt screen? Something like the calm setting? I don't want to see a computer screen with gaudy colors. I am trying to get away from the computer when I get into my truck.

Just press the button on the far right and it will put up what's called the calm screen. It's basically just a black screen with a clock in the middle. Press it again and the whole thing goes to black. That's the best the Maverick can do. Unless of course you're into modding.

I think the original question was if one could set the default setting of the screen to calm or off to be that way every time they start the vehicle. I'm guessing that now, the default starting screen isn't what they want it to automatically display each time.

Don't think the 2025's do this anymore with the new infotainment setup.

I went out and checked, but as Bryan said that button is not there in 2025, however there is a button below on the dash where the emergency flasher is activated. The third button in activates the calm screen. However it does not seem to default to that screen. Anyhow half way there - thanks all.

Oh interesting. That button for me actives the cameras. I'm guessing the Lariat's button (or maybe a package in general) changes that button's use. Wonder if ForScan would be able to mess with this.
