Yeah I guess this is a legit problem, but also applies to foreign language warnings. Especially ones who have manual written in foreign glyphs.

for the already very niche case of ending up behind the wheel of a foreign car that you can't just set to your language, you can still at least ask any literate foreigner to help. (they don't have to be a mechanic to debug "put hands on wheel"). Presumably there will be some around if you somehow acquired a foreign car with no help.
Icons are worse than foreign glyphs because how are you going to look up an icon?
