Passenger Airbag Status; Indicator - Cadillac XT6 2023 Owner's Manual

The airbag readiness light
comes on for several seconds
when the vehicle is started.
If the light does not come on
then, have it fixed immediately.
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.
If there is a problem with the
airbag system, a Driver
Information Center (DIC)
message may also come on.
Passenger Airbag

sensing system. See

0 78. The overhead console
has a passenger airbag status

indicator.

When the vehicle is started,
the passenger airbag status
indicator will light ON and OFF,
and the symbols for on and
off, for several seconds as a
system check. Then, after
several more seconds, the
status indicator will light either
ON or OFF, and the symbol for
on or off, to let you know the
status of the front outboard
passenger frontal airbag.
Instruments and Controls
If the word ON, and the
symbol for on, are lit on the

passenger airbag status

indicator, it means that the
front outboard passenger
frontal airbag is allowed to
inflate.
If the word OFF, and the
symbol for off, are lit on the
passenger airbag status
indicator, it means that the
passenger sensing system has
turned off the front outboard
passenger frontal airbag.
If, after several seconds, both
status indicator lights remain
on, or if there are no lights at
all, there may be a problem
with the lights or the
passenger sensing system.
See your dealer for service.
Warning
If the airbag readiness light
ever comes on and stays on,
it means that something may
be wrong with the airbag
system. To help avoid injury
