What do the various warning symbols in Lavida mean?

Red indicator lights represent danger and should be repaired immediately. Yellow indicator lights warn the owner to resolve corresponding faults as soon as possible. Blue indicator lights remind the owner to pay attention to potential impacts, such as whether the high beam may cause glare to oncoming vehicles. Green indicator lights are functional lights, such as position lights, turn signals, and low beams. Below is relevant information: Lavida: Lavida is a sedan produced by Shanghai Volkswagen and was launched in June 2008. While continuing the design language of "dynamic and stylish" in the A-class car market, the LAVIDA Lavida embodies a new design DNA—"fusion." Automotive fault diagnosis system: Generally, vehicles equipped with microprocessor control units have a fault self-diagnosis system. It can be used to automatically check and monitor the working status of various parts of the vehicle's transmission system and control system.
When I drive my Lavida, various warning lights on the dashboard occasionally come on, making me a bit nervous. The engine malfunction light is the yellow one shaped like an engine icon, indicating an emission system issue or sensor fault when lit—it may affect fuel consumption but is still safe to drive. The oil pressure light is shaped like a small oil can and turns red; if it lights up, you must stop immediately as it could mean low oil levels or a faulty pump—continuing to drive could damage the engine. The ABS light is labeled 'ABS' in yellow, indicating the anti-lock braking system has failed, making brakes more prone to locking up on wet or slippery roads. The battery charging light resembles a small battery and turns red, signaling an issue with the alternator or battery—delaying repairs could lead to a breakdown. The tire pressure monitoring light shows a tire with an exclamation mark, warning of low pressure that increases the risk of a blowout. Last time it lit up, I checked and found a nail—fixing it promptly saved trouble. The airbag light looks like a person sitting in a seat; if it's on, the airbags won't deploy in an accident, which is dangerous. Remember: red lights require immediate attention—don't delay.
