Help! Some advice

hi there
Wondering if anyone can shed any light...
i have a Mazda CX3 2017 and just noticed that I have orange flashing symbol (resembles a car with lock) on the dash which hasn’t been there before. Not sure if it’s the Security Indicator Light from reading the manual???
The doors are locking and opening fine with my FOB, and the engine starting. in the manual it’s states the light should flash for a few seconds from On/Off but staying on..
any ideas??

I suspect if you refer to you're Owner's Manual you'll find the indicator confirms the vehicle anti-theft system has been enabled.

Yeah just thought it was strange that after 18months of driving the car the symbol has just appeared.
Was confused - thought it may have been a fault somewhere
