What does the cooling system warning light flashing red on the move in a passenger car warn of?

Description

Vehicle owner's manual issued by its manufacturer and appendix no. 1 to the Regulation of the Minister of Transport, Construction and Maritime Economy of 13 July 2012 (item 1019).
Explanation

Correct answer: Of too high temperature of the cooling liquid.

The red warning light for the cooling system indicates that the engine temperature is too high, meaning it is overheating. You should stop the vehicle immediately in a safe place and turn off the engine to prevent permanent and costly damage. Continuing to drive with such a fault risks seizing the engine.
