Written by CarFactBook. Symbols and meanings differ between manufacturers and models; your owner's manual is the authority for your exact car.
Battery / charging
A charging warning generally means the 12V electrical system is not being charged. It does not by itself prove the battery needs replacing.
Generally: Reduce electrical load and have it checked promptly; the car may not restart once switched off.
