Default What does this dash light mean?

I just bought a 2006 Lexus ES330 and it does not have an owner's manual with it. I was hoping someone may tell me what this light means. It looks pretty innocuous like a light bulb out or something but all the head and tail lights are operable. Here it is:

That could be the warning for the auto headlight leveling. Have a look here if the direct link doesn't work use this link

Thank you to both of you. Definitely what it is, I wish the manual explained it better but now at least I have a pdf of the manual! I can only hope that it's an easy fix as it doesn't seem to be too terribly serious. Again, much appreciated!

I would start with the sensor. The dealer will probably want around $800 to fix the issue if it is a bad sensor and do you really need that feature? If you can do it yourself, give it a shot. Tons of info here about replacement, I'm sure. Also, if you don't want to fix them as you couldn't care less about that feature, then unplug the computer assembly that controls that feature, the light will go away.
