Owner's Manual

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.)
