No sign of gear on the dashboard of my Nissan serena

Generally, when the dashboard warning light populates, panic erupts - why? Most people are unaware of what specific symbols mean. If they did, they would know that not every warning light signal is indicative of a malfunction or costly repair.

Dashboard warning light as a circle with wavy lines through it

This is probably the coolant level sensor indicator for the antifreeze reservoir.
