What does the car icon on the car display indicate?
1 Answers
The car icon displayed on the dashboard is actually a door status indicator light, which shows whether the doors are fully closed. When a door is open or not properly closed, the corresponding indicator light will illuminate to alert the driver. The light will turn off once the door is properly shut. Here are explanations of other major dashboard indicator symbols: 1. Parking Brake Indicator: This light turns on when the parking brake handle is pulled up. It automatically turns off when the handbrake is released. In some vehicle models, this light may also illuminate when the brake fluid level is low. 2. Battery Indicator: This shows the working status of the battery. It lights up when the ignition is turned on and should turn off after the engine starts. If it doesn't light up or remains constantly lit, the generator and circuit should be checked immediately. 3. Fuel Indicator: This warns when fuel is running low. When illuminated, it means the fuel is nearly depleted - typically the vehicle can still travel about 50 kilometers after this light comes on. 4. Washer Fluid Indicator: This shows the level of windshield washer fluid. The light turns on when the fluid is nearly empty, reminding the owner to refill it. The indicator turns off after refilling.
