Cadillac 2005 STS - Manual (Page 216)

STABILITY SYS (System) ACTIVE
The STABILITY SYS ACTIVE message will display any
time Stabilitrak
® is actively assisting you with directional
control of the vehicle. Slippery road conditions may
exist when this message is displayed, so adjust
your driving accordingly. This message may stay on for
a few seconds after Stabilitrak
® stops assisting you
with directional control of the vehicle. See Stabilitrak ®
System on page 4-10 for more information.
STABILITY SYS (System) NOT READY
The STABILITY SYS NOT READY message will
display if Stabilitrak
® is not ready. Two conditions may
cause this message to display.
The first condition may be that the vehicle needs to be
driven in a straight line for approximately 30-40 ft
(9-12 m) until the sensors are centered. Once the
sensors are centered, the Stabilitrak
® system will be
ready and the STABILITY SYS READY message
will display.
The second condition that may cause this message to
display is when you first start your vehicle and drive
away during cold winter weather. This is normal.
The system needs to warm up. You can acknowledge
this message by pressing the reset button.
The Stabilitrak ® performance is affected until the
STABILITY SYS READY message is displayed in
the DIC. See Stabilitrak
® System on page 4-10 for
more information.
STABILITY SYS (System) OFF
The STABILITY SYS OFF message will display any
time you turn off Stabilitrak
® using the TC (traction
control) on/off button. See Traction Control System
(TCS) on page 4-8 for more information. When
this message has been displayed, Stabilitrak
® is no
longer available to assist you with directional control of
the vehicle. Adjust your driving accordingly. See
Stabilitrak
® System on page 4-10 for more information.
STABILITY SYS (System) READY
The STABILITY SYS READY message will display any
time you turn back on Stabilitrak
® using the TC
(traction control) on/off button. See Traction Control
System (TCS) on page 4-8 for more information. When
this message has been displayed, Stabilitrak
® is
ready to assist you with directional control of the vehicle
