Cadillac 2008 CTS - Manual (Page 176)

Antilock Brake System
Warning Light
For vehicles with the
Antilock Brake System
(ABS), this light comes on
briefly when the engine
is started.
That is 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 ABS light stays on, turn the ignition off, if the light
comes on when you are driving, stop as soon as it is
safely possible and turn the ignition off. Then start the
engine again to reset the system. If the ABS light still
stays on, or comes on again while you are driving, your
vehicle needs service. If the regular brake system
warning light is not on, your vehicle still has brakes, but
not antilock brakes. If the regular brake system warning
light is also on, your vehicle does not have antilock
brakes and there is a problem with the regular brakes.
See Brake System Warning Light on page 3-37.
For vehicles with a Driver Information Center (DIC), see
DIC Warnings and Messages on page 3-54 for all
brake related DIC messages.

® Warning Light
The Traction Control
System/StabiliTrak

If the warning light does not come on then, have it fixed
