United-Kingdom what indicators mean on the speedo ring!

This may sound like a stupid question, i recently bought my mini cooper and i was driving it today and one of the indicators in the speedo ring turned yellow. its the one with the explanation mark. it keeps on flashing, i'm really curious and cant wait till the morning to get it checked out. Just wondering if anyone knows what it means or stands for????

It means at least one of your tires is low on air.

Check all the tyres for pressure and top up if any are low and not a puncture.

The reset switch is under the handbrake.

It was acceptable in the 80's

Did your car come with a handbook? It's all in there if you care to look along with lots of other useful stuff
