WMING AND INDICATOR LIGHTS
This section describes the warning lights that are on your vehicle. The
pictures will help you locate them.
Warning lights can signal that something is wrong before it bec0me.s
serious enough to cause an expensive repair or replacement. Paying
attention to your warning lights could also save you or others from injury.
Warning lights go on when there may be or is a problem with one
of your
vehicle’s functions.
As you will see in the details on the next few pages,
some warning lights come on briefly when you turn the ignition key just to
let you know they’re working.
If you are familiar with this section, you
should not be alarmed when this happens.
When one of the warning lights comes on and stays on when you are
driving, check the section that tells you what to do about it. Please follow
the manual’s advice. Waiting to do repairs can be costly
-- and even
dangerous.
So please get to know your warning lights. They’re a big help.
Brake System Warning Light
Your Cadillac’s hydraulic brake system is divided into two parts. If one
part isn’t 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 could
be a brake problem.
Have your brake
system inspected right
away.
This light should come on as you start the vehicle.
If it doesn’t come on
then, have it fixed
so it will be ready to warn you if there’s a problem.

r Oil Pressure Light
This light tells you if
there could be a
problem with your
engine oil pressure.
The light goes on when you turn your key to “Run” or “Start.” It goes
off
once you start your engine. That’s just a check to be sure the light works.
If it doesn’t, be sure to have it fixed so it will be there to warn you if
something goes wrong.
When this light comes on and stays on, it means oil isn’t going through
your engine properly.
You could be low on oil, or you might have some
other oil problem.
NOTICE:
Damage to your engine from neglected oil problems can be
costly and is not covered by your warranty.

Charge Light
When you turn the key
to “Run” or “Start”,
this light
will come on

systems are working. n

If a light stays on, you need service, and you should take your Cadillac to
the dealer at once.
To save your battery until you get there, turn off all
accessories, and set your Electronic Climate Control system to
“OFF.”
Low Oil Level Light
If it doesn’t come on, have it repaired. If the light comes on and stays on,
your engine oil level is too low. Check your oil level and add enough oil
to bring the engine oil level
up to the proper level. See “Engine Oil” in
the Index.

Pass Key Fault Light
If this light comes on
while driving and stays
on, you will be able
to
restart your vehicle. If
you turn it off, your
vehicle will not be
protected by the
PASS-Key
II@ feature.
Have it serviced by
your Cadillac dealership.
ELECTRONIC LEWL CONTROL
I This keeps your car
level. When the system
is adjusting, the
“LEVEL RIDE” light
will be on.
If the light
comes on and
off while
driving, that’s normal.
The Electronic Level Control (ELC) will operate for several minutes
after you have turned the ignition
off.
If the light stays on for 7 minutes, it warns that your leveling system may
not be working. You should see your dealer for service. You can keep
using your Cadillac, though.

According to the American Medical Association, a 180-pound (82 kg)
person who drinks three 12-ounce
(355 ml) bottles of beer in an hour will
end up with a BAC of about
0.06 percent. The person would reach the
same BAC by drinking three 4-ounce (1 20 ml) glasses of wine or three
mixed drinks
if each had 1-1/2 ounces (45 ml) of a liauor like whiskey, gin
It’s the amount
of alcohol that counts. For example, if the same person
drank three double martinis
(3 ounces or 90 ml of liquor each) within an
hour, the person’s BAC would be close to 0.12 percent. A person who
consumes food just before or during drinking will have a slightly lower
BAC level.
