Airbag Readiness Light - Buick Enclave 2008 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 1-69 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.
3-36
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 1-59.
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.
