What does the S/S warning light mean?
1 Answers
It is the Auto Start-Stop indicator light, displayed as SS or S/S. The Auto Start-Stop system is essentially a reinforced motor with idle start-stop functionality implanted in traditional engines, allowing the engine to completely shut off when the vehicle meets idle stop conditions. When the vehicle needs to start moving again, the idle start-stop motor system quickly responds to the driver's start command, rapidly restarting the engine for seamless transition, thereby significantly reducing fuel consumption and exhaust emissions. Below are the meanings of related dashboard indicator lights: 1. Seat Belt Indicator: Shows whether the seat belt is locked. When lit, it indicates the seat belt is not properly fastened. Some models may have an accompanying alert sound. The light turns off when the seat belt is properly fastened. 2. Door Indicator: Displays the status of all vehicle doors. If any door is not closed or not properly closed, the corresponding door indicator light will illuminate to alert the driver. The light turns off when the door is closed properly. 3. Oil Pressure Indicator: Shows the oil pressure status in the engine. It lights up during the vehicle's self-check when the ignition is turned on and turns off after the engine starts. If it stays lit, it indicates the engine oil pressure is below the required standard, requiring maintenance. 4. Fuel Level Indicator: Displays the amount of fuel in the vehicle. During the self-check when the ignition is turned on, this light briefly illuminates and then turns off. If it stays lit after starting, it indicates low fuel. 5. ABS Indicator: Shows the status of the ABS system. During the self-check, the ABS light illuminates for a few seconds and then turns off. If it doesn't light up or stays on after starting, it indicates an ABS malfunction. 6. Handbrake Indicator: Shows the status of the handbrake. Normally off, it lights up when the handbrake is engaged and turns off when released. Some models may emit a warning sound if the handbrake is not released while driving.
