km). If your vehicle. is Canadian or Export, the trip
odometer will return to zero after 1999.9
km (1242 miles).

installed. The new one will read the correct mileage. This is because your
car’s computer has stored the mileage in memory.
WARNING 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

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 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
If the warning light comes on, there could be a brake problem. Have your
brake system inspected right away.
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.
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.
If the light comes on while you are driving, pull off the road and stop
carefully.
You may notice that the pedal is harder to push. Or, the pedal
may go closer to the floor. It may take longer to stop. If the light
is still
on, have the vehicle towed for service. (See “Towing Your Vehicle” in the
Index.)
