Mystery switch and engine symbol light on dash on STI 7

Hi,
I’m new to world of Scoobs and have a Jap STI 7, compete with Japanese manuals which I can’t read! There is a switch with a fan symbol and A/P on the centre console near the handbrake anybody know what it is for?
Also when I accelerate hard at 7-8k RPM the amber engine symbol on the dash flickers on and off, what does it mean?
Thanks,
Paul.

This is the ECU logging a fault, its letting you know its logging it as well, could be a number of things, drop it into the dealers and they will check it out.
Just had similar problem and its the gearbox sensor which loggs asa misfire for some reason??
