Charging System Light; Brake System Warning Light - Pontiac Solstice 2008 Owner's Manual

Charging System Light

It should go out once the engine is running. If it stays
on, or comes on while you are driving, you may have a
problem with the charging system. A charging system
Driver Information Center (DIC) message may also
appear. See DIC Warnings and Messages on page 3-40
for more information. This light could indicate that
you have problems with a generator drive belt, or
another electrical problem. Have it checked right away.
If you must drive a short distance with the light on,
be certain to turn off all your accessories, such as
the radio and air conditioner.
This light will come
on briefly when you
turn on the ignition,
but the engine is not
running, as a check to
show you it is working.

Brake System Warning Light

Your vehicle's hydraulic brake system is divided into
two parts. If one part is not working, the other part
can still work and stop you. For good braking, though,
you need both parts working well.
If the warning light comes on, there is a brake problem.
Have your brake system inspected right away.
United States
This light should come on briefly when the engine is

will be ready to warn you if there is a problem.
