1994 CADILLAC FLEETWOOD light

cu
Few automobiles are fortunate enough to have the rich
kage that is Cadillac. The name Cadillac is appropriately
tr : of Antcine de La Mothe Cadillac, the French military
commander who founded the city of Detroit . 1701. What
better name for the oldest autsmobile manufacturer in Detroit.
Henry M. Leland, known as the
master of precision, initiated his pre-
cision manufacturing techniques at Club
of England awarded the pres-
b Dewar Trophy 1 tigious
to Cadillac twice
. . .
the founding of Cadillac
in
1902. His exacting
standards prompted the
motto
by which Cadillac
has been guided over the
years
- “Craftsmanship
A Creed - Accuracy A
Law:’
The introduction
of
first in 1908 for achieving
the first four cylinder en- perfect
interchangeability
of parts and again in
1912
i for introducing the elec-
j tric self starter, electric
I lighting and ignition
system. Cadillac is the only
American manufacturer to win this honor and the
gine in
1905 led the industry and only manufacturer in the world to win
enabled Cadillacs to travel at speeds
up to
50 mph.
For attention to quality and in-
novation, the Royal Automobile
it twice. As commonplace as stan-
dardized parts are today, in
1908 parts
were still individually hand fitted
both in production and service.

r Standardization o-pened the eyes of
the industrial world and was the cor-
ner-stone of modern
1: assembly lir
production. From this achievemc---
evolved the reference to Cadillac as
“Standard
of the World:
In
1909 Cadillac was purchased
by the then new General Motors
Corporation. Convenience, clean-
liness and all-weather comfort were
greatly enhanced in
1910 when Cad-
illac became the first manufacturer
to offer closed bodies as standard
equipment.
“The Penalty of Leadership”
first appeared in the January
2, 1915
issue of The Saturday Evening Post
r

c-
as an expression of the Cadillac com-
mitment to leadership, quality, and
innovation.
It is widely regarded as
one of the finest documents ever
written and was published following
the introduction of the first produc-
tion
V8 engine. The V8 was stan-
dard in
all 1915 model Cadillacs.
Many Cadillac “firsts” have fol-
lowed over the years, including the
synchro-mech clashless transmis-
sion, a nation-wide comprehensive
45 O V-16 Engine
service policy, security plate glass,
chrome plating and the first car to
be designed
by a stylist (1927 La-
Salle/Harley Earl). The
’30s wit-
quiet
V12 and
The crisp, contemporary lmes ot the
1938 60 Special series ushered in a
new era in styling.
During World War
11, shortly
after Pearl Harbor, Cadillac discon-
tinued car production for the first
time since
1902 in order to construct
light tanks, combat vehicles and
internal parts for Allison
V1710 en-
gines. Two Cadillac
V8 engines and
Hydra-Matic transmissions were
used in each tank.

firmly pull the restraint forward again until it releases to the
full-rearward position.
Now slowly move the restraint forward until
you reach a comfortable position.
You should hear a clicking sound as 1
the restraint moves forward.

LumbarIHeater Seat Controls (Fleetwood Brougham)
With this feature, you can change the shape of the driver’s or passenger’s
seatback. Adjust the power seat control first to get the proper position.
For the best adjustment, it is recommended that you first start with the
“MIDDLE” lumbar.
MIDDLE (Back
Support): Adjust
support for the
middle back.
UPPER (Back
Support): Adjust
support for the
upper back.
LOWER (Back
Support): Adjust
support for the
lower back.
Push the switch to either
“HI” or “LO” to turn on the heating element in
the seat.
Designed primarily for use on damp and chilly days, the
“LO” setting
warms the seatback and cushion until the seat approximates body
temperature.
On colder days, the “HI” setting heats the seats to an even
higher temperature.
To prevent uncomfortable overheating of the seats,
the heating elements are thermostatically regulated to automatically
maintain the temperature at the setting selected. A telltale light on the
control switch reminds
you that the heating system is in use. To preserve
the battery, the heated seats can only be used when the ignition is turned
on, and is deactivated when the ignition is turned
off.

SAFETYBELTS: THEY’RE FOR EVERYONE
This part of the manual tells you how to use safety belts properly. It also
tells you some things you should not
do with safety belts.
And it explains the Supplemental Inflatable Restraint, or “air bag”
system.
This figure lights up as a reminder to buckle up. (See “Safety Belt
Reminder Light” in the Index.)
In many states and Canadian provinces, the law says to wear safety belts.
Here’s why: They work.
You never know if you’ll be in a crash.
If you do have a crash, you don’t
know if it will be a bad one.

Safety Belt Reminder Light
When the key is turned to “Run” or “Start,” a light will come on for
about eight seconds to remind people to fasten their safety belts. Unless
the driver’s safety belt is buckled, a chime will also sound.
HOW TO FVEAR SAFETYBELTS PROPERLY
Adults
This section is only for people of adult size.
Be aware that there are special things to know about safety belts and
children. And there are different rules for smaller children and babies. If
a child will be riding
in your Cadillac, see the section after this one, called
“Children.” Follow those rules for everyone’s protection.
First, you’ll want to know which restraint systems your vehicle has.
We’ll start with the driver position.

4. Let the belt go back all the way. You should hear a slight clicking
sound.
If you don’t, the adjustment feature won’t set, and you’ll have
to start again.
5. Now you can add a small amount of slack. Lean forward slightly, then
sit back. If you’ve added more than
1 inch (25 mm) of slack, pull the
shoulder belt out as you did before and start again.
If you move around in the vehicle enough, or
if you pull out the shoulder
belt, the belt will become tight again.
If this happens, you can reset it.
