Charging System Light; Brake System Warning Light - Cadillac 2010 DTS Owner's Manual

Charging System Light

If it does not, have the vehicle serviced by your
dealer/retailer.
The light should go out once the engine starts. If it stays
on, or comes on while driving, there could be a
problem with the charging system. A charging system
message in the Driver Information Center (DIC) can also
appear. See DIC Warnings and Messages on page 4-67
for more information. This light could indicate that
there are problems with a generator drive belt, or that
there is an electrical problem. Have it checked right
away. If the vehicle must be driven a short distance with
the light on, turn off accessories, such as the radio
and air conditioner.

This light comes on briefly
when the ignition key is
turned to START, but
the engine is not running,
as a check to show it
is working.

Brake System Warning Light

The vehicle's hydraulic brake system is divided into
two parts. If one part is not working, the other part can
still work and stop the vehicle. For good braking
both parts need to be working.
If the warning light comes on, there is a brake problem.
Have the brake system inspected right away.

This light comes on briefly when the engine is turned
on. If it does not come on then, have it fixed so it will be
ready to warn if there is a problem.
When the ignition is on, the brake system warning light
also comes on when the parking brake is set. The
light will stay on if the parking brake does not release
fully. If it stays on after the parking brake is fully
released, it means there is a brake problem.
