Symbol light up on my dashboard

I bought a 1996 LS 400 2 yrs ago. Never had a problem with the car. I need to get the brakes serviced. Yesterday a light came on the dash. It's red in color. It's a circle with wht looks to be calipers outside the red circle. I bought the car without n owners manuel. Is this light a brake censor or something else I need to address?

Thanks,

Jeff

I HAVE A WARNING LIGHT ICON ON AT THE BOTTOM LEFT OF MY DASHBOARD IT LOOKS LIKE A CROWN OR A CIRCLE WITH SPACES IN BETWEEN. THE COLOR OF THE ICON IS ORANGE. ITS A LEXUS 1990 LS 400

I believe what this symbol is the radiator. It comes on when the coolant level is low. Take a look at your radiator coolant level and if low add some to the full mark. Do this when the engine is cold to avoid getting burned from hot water and steam.
