The hazard lights button is located in the overhead console. You can also access the lights in the bottom bar in the display.
The status and interaction points to control the hazard lights are signified by the associated symbol.

There is a cool-down period which disables the option to turn the hazard lights off. When you can use them as normal, the hazard lights button begins flashing again.
