Default 2022 Mazda 3 Heads up display symbols

Just took delivery of my UK spec 2022 Mazda 3 2.0 MHEV Skyactiv X (186PS) about a week ago.
Not had much chance to drive it yet due to Christmas etc... but loving it so far.

Just a quick question, I keep seeing a small circular orange symbol in the Heads up display, appears just above the current speed numbers.
Unfortunately it only blinks on for about half a second or so and I don't get enough time to recognise what the symbol is trying to tell me.
At first I thought it might be warning me that I'm over the current speed limit for that road but I've tried a few times by going about 5mph over the limit and it doesn't appear.
I can't see any mention of that symbol in the owners manual.

Anyone got any idea what it might be?

Yes, as I said above I couldn't see anything like that in the manual.

Default Orange symbol

Round orange symbol might be the lane departure warning indicator

I get an orange illuminated \ or / type symbol for that if i cross the lane markings without indicating.
The symbol I'm seeing is a small round symbol which is always centered above the Speed readout.
Only blinks occasionally for about 0.5 second and I can't work out what it's telling me.

Hmmm I’m honestly not sure, maybe it’s something I don’t have on mine, I’ll see what I can see on mine on the way home

Ok thanks,If I had to guess what the symbol is, I would say it looks like a small steering wheel.
I'm on a UK spec 2.0 MHev e Skyactiv X 186 GT Sport. No idea what that spec is called in the US or if there is an equivalent. It's one down from the top spec available here.

Looking closely at Steve's image, It could have something to do with the first service seeing that he has done over
2,000 miles.
Think Iv'e found it!!!
On page 4-30 of my "Owner's Manual" C-2021 Mazda Motor Corp.
It shows the symbol to the left of the "driving Info" value for average Lt/mpg fuel economy.
It is computed and displayed every 30 seconds. that's what it says!!!!
It can be reset by pressing the "Info" for 1.5 sec.

Have just started the engine on my Astina G25 (2.5Lt) and looked carefully at the instument display.
I also have the symbol!!! Did not notice it until now.
I have tried all posibilities to locate the origin; nothing seems to affect it. (whilst stationary)
Perhaps it's a new symbol broadcast from the Mazda Star Ship to lucky owners of the 2023 version!!!!

Is it the lane departure warning?
