Wow! Thanks for translating!

I think the light indicates a coolant-related problem, possibly low coolant level. I suppose, through normal driving, the coolant is circulating sufficiently enough to prevent the coolant sensor from detecting a problem.

I would check the coolant expansion tank first to see if there is enough coolant in the tank. If so, then perhaps the sensor is defective...
