That's ridiculous.  It's one of the functions that should be immediately visible, accessible quickly and without having to take much of the driver's attention.

I do agree.

In fact, having checked the manual, I simply thought the manual was incorrect as I had never noticed a button in the position indicated.
The manual shows a big black button with red warning triangle and illuminated edge set in the pale cream headlining.  Not the most immediately accessible placing, but seemingly obvious.
Thinking I'd never seen such a button, I went to the car to check.  There is indeed a button, but it is wholly flush and exactly the same colour as the headlining with a very feint warning triangle symbol.  Very subtle and inconspicuous but also nearly wholly useless.

What car have you got?

(I want to steer clear of it - both literally and metaphorically...)

TM3.           

Hazard button looks fairly obvious to me.

Looked fairly obvious to me as well on 2 different TM3 I looked at via Google, maybe there is another model where it is not so obvious
