What does Avensis AZT250 orange coolant light mean?

[Coro]

We have the orange coolant light on in our 2004 AZT250 Avensis (petrol 2.0 litre).  Temp and coolant level are both OK.

What does this light actually mean???

Do you have a Handbook Coro ?

No I don't unfortunately.  Japanese import.

Well, I think it means that normal operating water temperature has not yet been reached.

Others will correct me if I`m wrong.

The light is on all the time, and the gauge appears to show the car warming up normally to stay just below halfway when warm (as it always did).

It's just to let you know what the gauge is showing you. It's always going to be lit, same way as the petrol station pump symbol on the opposite side. It is different from the mk 1 Yaris, where there isn't a gauge and the symbol changes colour from blue to let you know it's cold and red to let you know it's overheating.
