Warning
A collision severe enough to inflate the
airbags may have also damaged
important functions in the vehicle, such
as the brake and steering systems, etc.
Even if the vehicle appears to be drivable
after a moderate collision, there may be
concealed damage that could make it
difficult to safely operate the vehicle.
Use caution if attempting to restart the
vehicle after a crash has occurred.
Plug-in vehicles have a high voltage battery
and a standard 12-volt battery.
If an airbag inflates or the vehicle has been
in a crash, the sensing system may shut
down the high voltage system. When this
occurs, the high voltage battery is
disconnected and the vehicle will not start.
Before the vehicle can be operated again, it
must be serviced at your Cadillac Service
Centre.
In many crashes severe enough to inflate
the airbag, windscreens are broken by
vehicle deformation. Additional windscreen
breakage may also occur from the front
outboard passenger airbag.
.
Airbags are designed to inflate only once.
After an airbag inflates, you will need
some new parts for the airbag system.
If you do not get them, the airbag
system will not be there to help protect
you in another crash. A new system will
include airbag modules and possibly other
parts. The service manual for the vehicle
covers the need to replace other parts.
.
The vehicle has a crash sensing and
diagnostic module which records
information after a crash. See Vehicle
Data Recording and Privacy 0 303.
.
Let only qualified technicians work on the
airbag system. Improper service can mean
that an airbag system will not work
properly. See your Cadillac Service Centre
for service.
Airbag On-Off Switch
Airbag Deactivation
The front passenger frontal airbag must be
deactivated for a rear-facing child restraint
on the front passenger seat and for certain
forward-facing child restraints according to
the instructions in the tables under Where
to Put the Restraint 0 65. The other airbag
systems, the seat belt pretensioners, and all
driver airbag systems will remain active.
If the instrument panel has the switch
pictured in the illustration, the vehicle has
an airbag on-off switch that you can use to
manually turn on or off the front outboard
passenger airbag.
No other airbag is affected by the on-off
switch.
{
Warning
Deactivate the front passenger airbag
only in combination with the use of a
child restraint, subject to the instructions
and restrictions in the tables listed in this
manual. See Where to Put the Restraint
0 65.
