Engine cold
Safe to drive
What it means
The engine coolant has not yet reached operating temperature.
What to do
Drive gently and avoid high revs and hard acceleration until the light goes out. If it stays on after a long drive, have the thermostat checked.
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.
