What does a circle with a slash on the Volkswagen Polo dashboard mean?
1 Answers
A circle with a slash on the dashboard represents average values, corresponding to metrics such as average fuel consumption or average speed. For example, if the dashboard currently displays this symbol with "17Km/h," it indicates the current average speed is 17 km/h. Similarly, if the circle with a slash is followed by "XXL/100km," it refers to the average fuel consumption. In reality, dashboard symbols are not limited to these—there are various others, such as: A little person carrying a large sword. This alerts you that the seatbelt is not fastened while driving. Buckling up significantly enhances personal safety during travel. A little person sitting on a toilet. This is not actually indicating someone using the toilet in the car but rather displays the temperature, showing a marker for -4°C. A teapot dripping water. This is the engine oil pressure warning light. When starting the engine, oil pressure hasn’t yet built up, so this light may illuminate for a second before turning off as pressure normalizes. This is more noticeable in winter but is normal and not a cause for concern. There are many symbols displayed on the dashboard, each with different meanings. When a symbol appears, promptly refer to it to identify the cause.
