The light may come on at that time too. Next time, it's a good idea to quote your model, year, and mileage. Location is helpful too, since safety features and specs vary from country to country.

Happens with our minvan ('96 Plymouth Grand Voyager). The light does go out after a little bit of driving, and all seems to be normal.
