    Take it to a parts store like Autozone. They can read the code.

    Wouldn't your owners manual tell you what the various pictograms mean?

    I get every kind of lights and warnings when I start the car, no warning tones and no codes set though. I think it is just the ecu booting up.

    +1 It's only if a light stays on that you need to panic.
