Modern cars have a variety of icon lights that provide information to the driver about the current state of the car. Most will appear briefly during start-up, and then only appear again if that particular system is activated or that particular status is detected.
In general, yellow or amber colored icons are advisories – they represent conditions you should be aware of, but may not require your immediate attention. Red colored icons are warnings – the vehicle should not be driven until these issues have been resolved.
