All warning lights

Bonnet open

Stop driving

What it means

The bonnet (hood) is open or not latched.

What to do

Stop safely and close it firmly before driving. A bonnet that flies up at speed blocks your view and is extremely dangerous.

This is general guidance. Symbols differ between manufacturers, so check your owner's manual, and have a red warning light looked at before you drive on.
