What does it mean when a small car icon appears on the dashboard while driving?

When a small car icon appears on the dashboard while driving, it indicates that the car's anti-theft system is active. After the car is turned off and locked, a red car-shaped indicator light on the dashboard flashes once every one to two seconds. This is a normal phenomenon, indicating that the car has entered anti-theft mode. The car anti-theft system is designed to prevent theft of the car itself or items inside the car. It consists of an electronically controlled remote or key, an electronic control circuit, an alarm device, and an actuator. The method to unlock the car anti-theft system is: 1. Open the engine hood to locate the alarm; 2. Unplug the central connector of the anti-theft device to disconnect the power input line.
