That's the light, and it only comes on after around 10 minutes of driving. After i restart the car it goes off then comes back on after another 10 minutes. What does this light mean ?

Ok so i checked and i did have low coolant.. and I also noticed a hairline crack on the reservoir that produces little bubbles, so I'm guessing I need a new radiator reservoir or P/S reservoir.. ?
