Airbag Readiness Light - Cadillac 2015 SRX Owner's Manual

The front passenger safety belt
reminder light and chime may turn
on if an object is put on the seat
such as a briefcase, handbag,
grocery bag, laptop, or other
electronic device. To turn off the
reminder light and/or chime, remove
the object from the seat or buckle
the safety belt.
Second Row Passenger Belt
Reminder Light
Second row seating positions
monitored for safety belt use are
represented by a coloured symbol in
the Driver information Centre (DIC)
indicating safety belt status. When
the vehicle is started, three safety
belt symbols come on and stay on
for several seconds in the
instrument cluster to alert the driver
that passengers may need to fasten
their safety belts. After the
passenger safety belt is buckled,
the corresponding safety belt
symbol in the instrument cluster
turns green. If a safety belt is not
initially buckled, the instrument
cluster displays a grey safety belt
symbol. While the vehicle is moving,
if a second row passenger that was
previously buckled becomes
unbuckled, the corresponding safety
belt symbol will change to flashing
red and a chime may sound.

Airbag Readiness Light

This light shows if there is an
electrical problem with the airbag
system. The system check includes
the airbag sensor(s), passenger
sensing system, 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 3-19.
Instruments and Controls
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.
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.
