On the K5, it's the OK button if I'm not mistaken (press it for a while and it will toggle the function of the four-way controller; I only use center focus so might have changed it once in my life

Thanks, yes there it is on page 9. I didn't think to look there as I assumed that the information would be on page 46 under AF point. On closer inspection it is, and isn't, there. In my copy of the manual the SD card select button symbol is just pure black with no demarcation on it whatsoever and it is not named in the associated text. Yes I could have found this and pressed every button on the camera to find out which one they meant, but sadly I missed this nugget of obfuscated information. Then if I had turned to page 9 I would have had to read through every button's description to find the right one as it is not referenced as being related to AF in anyway via the index, nor is page 9 indicated on page 46 as containing that information.
I am not claiming that I am blameless in airing this question on a public forum as opposed to finding the answer in the manual. I do feel the manual leaves something to be desired in terms of print quality and completeness.
As I am clearly a lazy illiterate wolf crier all I can do is once again sincerely thank Aapo (repaap) for providing the answer, and your good self for guiding me through the manual.
