Operation of Lights
Although your vehicle’s lighting system (headlights, parking lights, fog
lamps, side marker lights and taillights) meet all applicable federal
lighting requirements, certain states and provinces may apply their own
lighting regulations that may require special attention before you operate
-
these lights.
For example, some jurisdictions may require that you operate your. lower
beam lights with fog lamps at all times, or that headlights be turned on
whenever you must use your windshield wipers.
In addition, most
jurisdictions prohibit driving solely with parking lights, especially at dawn
or dusk. It is recommended that you check with your own state
or
provincial highway authority for applicable lighting regulations.

computer stores the mileage in memory.
WMING 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 becomes
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.
Your vehicle may also have a driver information system that works along
with the warning lights. See “Driver Information System” in the Index.
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.

L-l
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.
