Safety Belt Reminder Light; Airbag Readiness Light - Chevrolet 2005 Cavalier Owner's Manual

Safety Belt Reminder Light

When the key is turned to RUN or START, a chime will
come on for several seconds to remind people to
fasten their safety belts, unless the driver's safety belt is
already buckled.
If the driver's belt is already buckled, neither the chime
nor the light will come on.
3-24
The safety belt light will
also come on and stay on
for several seconds, then it
will flash for several more.

Airbag Readiness Light

There is an airbag readiness light on the instrument
panel, 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 airbag
modules, the wiring and the crash sensing and
diagnostic module. For more information on the airbag
system, see Airbag System on page 1-46.
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. Then the
light should go out. This
means the system is ready.
