Interior illumination
This is the One-touch interior illumination indicator symbol. It will illuminate when the one-touch interior illumination switch is activated, which switches on all of the vehicle’s overhead map and reading lights. The manual we found this in does not speak to the color of the indicator. We chose the yellow/amber/orange palette because if the switch is left on, there is a real risk of battery drainage.

For the switch, found in some Subaru models, to work, the interior lights must be set to the “DOOR” position in the overhead console. Pressing the switch again turns all these lights off. When turned on using the switch, the lights can also be turned off by locking the doors using the key fob, door handle, or Power Rear Gate Lock Switch.
Cars are changing, and among those changes is the growing number of symbols and indicators that will invariably show up on your dashboard or instrument panel. Every year, new features are added to vehicles, each of which is accompanied by a new symbol or symbols and likely a new acronym.
At DashboardSymbols.com, our aim is to help you understand what is happening to your vehicle at the first sign of trouble – a new warning light illuminated on your instrument panel. Its all here on this website. Our first intention is to bring the latest technologies down to earth and understandable for everyday drivers.
