Airbag Readiness Light - Cadillac 2012 SRX Owner's Manual

5-16 Instruments and Controls
If the Vehicle Information is
selected, a full page screen displays
at start-up the three safety belt
symbols.
Once the passenger safety belt is
buckled, the corresponding safety
belt symbol in the DIC turns green.
There are no seat position sensors
in the seat, nor a safety belt
reminder sensor pad. If a safety belt
is not initially buckled, the cluster
continues to show the gray safety
belt icon.
While the vehicle is moving, if a
second row passenger who was
previously buckled becomes
unbuckled, a full screen warning
displays with the corresponding
safety belt indicator flashing red.
A chime may sound.
Acknowledge warning messages by
pressing any of the DIC buttons.

Airbag Readiness Light

This light shows if there is an
electrical problem. The system
check includes the airbag sensor(s),
passenger sensing system, the
pretensioners, the airbag modules,
the wiring, and the crash sensing
and diagnostic module. For more
information on the airbag system,
see Airbag System on page 3 23.
The airbag readiness light comes on
and stays on for several seconds
when the vehicle is started.
Then the light goes out.
WARNING
If the airbag readiness light stays
on after the vehicle is started or
comes on while driving, it means
the airbag system might not be
working properly. The airbags in
the vehicle might not inflate in a
crash, or they could even inflate
without a crash. To help avoid
injury, have the vehicle serviced
right away.
