A green light indicator (often labeled In operation/In service) shows the lift is safe to use.
Explanation
Elevator safety indicators follow a simple color-coding system. A green light or sign typically means the lift is ready for use: the car is in service, doors are functioning, and it is safe to enter and ride. If the indicator is red or a sign says Out of order, the lift should not be used and maintenance should be contacted. Always wait for the doors to fully open, the car to come to a complete stop, and for the doors to close securely before signaling the car to move.
