I dont have a manual and have done a search and cant find anything about this. Does anyone know what this slot is for?

My engine light comes on after I run the heat for about 10 mins but not if I dont run the heat and I was told it was something to do with the exhaust system making it do that and thought that might be it. Thanks for all the replys
