Airbag Readiness Light - Cadillac 2008 SRX Owner's Manual

Passenger Safety Belt Reminder Light
Several seconds after the engine is started, a chime
will sound for several seconds to remind the front
passenger to buckle their safety belt. This would only
occur if the passenger airbag is enabled. See Passenger
Sensing System on page 1-65 for more information.
The passenger safety belt light will also come on
and stay on for several seconds, then it will flash
for several more.
If the passenger's safety belt is buckled, neither the
chime nor the light will come on.
3-34
This chime and light are
repeated if the passenger
remains unbuckled and
the vehicle is in motion.

Airbag Readiness Light

There is an airbag readiness light on the instrument panel
cluster, which shows the airbag symbol. The system
checks the airbag's electrical system for malfunctions.
The light tells you if there is an electrical problem.
The system check includes the airbag sensor, 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 1-55.
If the airbag readiness light stays on after you start the
vehicle or comes on when you are driving, your airbag
system may not work properly. Have your vehicle
serviced right away.
This light will come on
when you start your
vehicle, and it will flash for
a few seconds. The light
should go out and the
system is ready.
