1994 CADILLAC ELDORADO light

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine This means your radio can produce quality AM sound comparable to FM
stereo. AMAX@ reduces noise without reducing the high frequencies you
need for the best sound. In addition to improved sound quality, AMAX’
includes more station on the AM band. You don’t have to do anything to
your radio because
AMAX@ is automatic.
AM Stereo
This means the Delco@ system can receive C-QUAM’ stereo broadcasts.
Many
AM stations around the country use C-QUAM@ to produce stereo,
although some do not. (C-QUAM@ is a registered trademark
of
Motorola, Inc.) If your Delco@ system can get C-QUAM@, your “ST”
stereo light
will come on when you’re receiving it.
Be aware that hearing damage from loud noise is almost undetectable
until it is too late. Your hearing can adapt to higher volumes
of sound.
Sound that seems normal can be loud and harmful to your hearing. Take
precautions by adjusting the volume control on your radio to a safe sound
level before your hearing adapts to it.
To help avoid hearing loss or damage:
Adjust the volume control to the lowest setting.
Increase volume slowly until you hear comfortably and clearly.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine According to the American Medical Association, a 180-pound (82 kg)
person who drinks three 12-ounce
(355 ml) bottles of beer in an hour will
end up with a BAC of about 0.06 percent. The person would reach the
same BAC by drinking three 4-ounce (120 ml) glasses of wine or three
mixed drinks
if each had 1-1/2 ounces (45 ml) of a liquor like whiskey, gin
or vodka.
It’s the amount of alcohol that counts. For example,
if the same person
drank three double martinis
(3 ounces or 90 ml of liquor each) within an
hour, the person’s
BAC would be close to 0.12 percent. A person who
consumes food just before or during drinking
will have a slightly lower
BAC level.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine OFF-ROAD RECOVERY
You may find sometime that your right wheels have dropped off the edge
of a road onto the shoulder while you’re driving.
If the level of the shoulder is only slightly below the pavement, recovery
should be fairly easy. Ease
off the accelerator and then, if there is nothing - -
in the way, steer so that your vehicle straddles the edge of the pavement.
You
can turn the steering wheel up to 1/4 turn until the right front tire
contacts the pavement edge.
Then turn your steering wheel to go straight
-
down the roadway.

PASSING
The driver of a vehicle about to pass another on a two-lane highway waits
for just the right moment, accelerates, moves around the vehicle ahead,
then goes back into the right lane again.
A simple maneuver?
Not necessarily! Passing another vehicle on a two-lane highway is a
potentially dangerous move, since the passing vehicle occupies the same
lane
as oncoming traffic for several seconds. A miscalculation, an error in
judgment,
or a brief surrender to.frustration or anger can suddenly put
the passing driver face to face with the worst
of all traffic accidents -- the
head-on collision.
