Passenger Safety Belt Reminder Light; Airbag Readiness Light - Cadillac 2006 Owner's Manual

Passenger Safety Belt
Reminder Light
Several seconds after the ignition button is pressed to
START, 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 1-58
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.
3-60
This chime and light will be
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, 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 sensors, the
airbag modules, the wiring and the diagnostic module.
For more information on the airbag system, see
Airbag System on page 1-48.
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.
