The available information does not confirm that the Aprilia Tuareg 660 has a standard hazard light function. One user mentioned searching the manual and only finding a reference to a hazard light when emergency braking. Another user attempted a method used on the RS660 but found it did not work on the Tuareg. There is no clear confirmation in the provided manual excerpts.
