scary: that is the hazard light button. the child lock for the windows is on the right on the bottom of the dash not on the steering column.

well..... looks like you found it its my 'extra boost' button ! works well, but you got to hunch over when you want to flick it. a little inconvenient at times, and slow on the reaction. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
