The existing code does not display the thermometer sympbol on my smartphone (iPhone SE) and I suspect that this link is not working any more:

Hi Thomas.
The symbols are working fine for me.
What is the browser you use in your smartphoner?
If you try to access this link, can you see the icon on your smartphone? https://fontawesome.com/icons/thermometer-three-quarters?style=solid
Regards,
Sara

Dear Sara,
thank you for your quick response.
It works on my old Internet Exlporer (Windows PC) but does not work on the current Firefox (Windows PC) and does not work with Safari on iPhone or iPad.
Kind regards
Thomas

Hi Thomas.
That’s weird.
I’ve searched a bit about that problem and it seems something related with the browser itself. It seems that for security reasons it doesn’t use the font awesome icons. If you search “font awesome doesn’t work on Firefox” you’ll see the problem.
Unfortunately, I don’t know how to solve that.
We use Google Chrome in our projects and everything works fine.
Regards,
Sara
