Cadillac 2007 Automobile User Manual


 
{CAUTION:
Your brake system may not be working
properly if the brake system warning light
is on. Driving with the brake system
warning light on can lead to an accident.
If the light is still on after you have pulled
off the road and stopped carefully, have
the vehicle towed for service.
Anti-Lock Brake System
Warning Light
With the anti-lock brake
system, this light will
come on when you
start your engine
and may stay on for
several seconds.
That’s normal. If the light does not come on then,
have it fixed so it will be ready to warn you if
there is a problem.
If the light stays on, or comes on when you are
driving, your vehicle needs service. You will
also hear a chime sound when the light is on
steady. If the regular brake system warning light
is not on, you still have brakes, but you do
not have anti-lock brakes. If the regular brake
system warning light is also on you do not have
anti-lock brakes and there is a problem with
your regular brakes. In addition to both lights,
you will also hear a chime sound on the first
occurrence of a problem and each time the
vehicle is shut off and then restarted. See
Brake System Warning Light on page 228.
The anti-lock brake system warning light should
come on briefly when you turn the ignition
key to RUN. If the light does not come on then,
have it fixed so it will be ready to warn you if
there is a problem.
