Looks like the smell warning indicator, time to clean the inside of the 'ol jeep, eh? Seriously though I can't tell what the hell that symbol is supposed to be.

That's what I was thinking. But I couldn't tell if those were solid lines or not. Looks like nostrils in that pic.

Cheers. I've been having overheating issues so any warning light is a concern at the moment!! It came on going down a hill so hopefully it's just wiper fluid!

jakbob is correct. If you're concerned pull out your owners manual, it should have a section for warning indicators.

yes, to confirm it is the low washer fluid indicator.

so you might as well clean the inside of your jeep.
