It's an indication that there's a powertrain problem that results in elevated emission levels. Often whatever it is can damage engine or transmission components. Get it serviced before it strands you somewhere.

Got one of those code readers and figured out that it was the egr valve that needs to be replaced
I recomend people buying a code reader will save money along the way
