Mystery Green Indicator Light - Ideas?

Hi: This probably is a dumb question but I can't find answer online or in manual. I took a picture of a green indicator light that came on last weekend ( see photo) and am guessing it means I need to check my power steering fluid? Has anyone else seen it before? Probably will just go get fluid and top off - but would be nice to know precise meaning of green light.

I'm a little frustrated because my 2010 TDI has had an entire ECM replacement, new 4WD shaft and an entire exhaust system replacement (NOX, Adblue system+rez+sensor and Catalytic convertor) all in last 18 months. Lotta $$ and headaches. Good thing the car is decent offroad and very nice fuel efficiency (the V6 TDIs were not part of the "cheater software" if I understand correctly).

Advice welcome,
K

I may be mistaken but I'm pretty sure that's the indicator that the heated steering wheel is activated

Actually, he is a martian and he is looking for a device to warm up mars. His research indicates that something that is not CARB compliant could raise the average temperature of Mars. Seems like something he read recently makes him think that VW has a diesel that might help him. LOLZ.
