This rich traditi.on continues
into the
'90s as Cadillac became the
first automobile manufacturer to be
awarded the prestigious Malcolm
Baldrige National Quality Award.
The
1992 Seville STS was the
first car ever to win
all three major
automotive awards: Car of the Year,
Motor Trend; Ten Best List, Car
&
Driver; Car of the' Year, Automobile
Magazine.
A
A 1993 Cadillac Allant6 in stock
technical configuration, was selected
as the pace car for the 76th Indianap-
olis
500. The demanding pace car
performance and handling require- ments were met because of such
advances as the Northstar system.
The system includes the
32 valve,
dual overhead camshaft, Northstar
4.6 liter V8 engine, 4T80 E electroni-
cally controlled automatic transaxle,
road sensing suspension, speed sen-
sitive steering, antilock brakes and
traction control.
For more than nine decades
Cadillac has been
a leader in quality
and technical innovation. Now more
than ever, substance takes shape

why Safety Belts Work
When you ride in or on anything, you go as fast as it goes.
When the bike hits the
block, it stops. But the
child keeps going!

The lap part of the belt should be worn low and snug on the hips, just
touching the thighs. In a crash, this applies force to the strong pelvic
bones. And you’d be less likely to slide under the lap belt.
If you slid
under it, the belt would apply force at your abdomen. This could cause
serious or even fatal injuries. The shoulder belt should
go over the
shoulder and across the chest. These parts of the body are best able to
take belt restraining forces.
The safety belt locks
if there’s a sudden stop or crash.

r Servicing Your Cadillac with the Air Bag System
Please tell or remind anyone who works on your Cadillac that it has the
air bag system. There are parts of the air bag system
in several places
around your vehicle. You don’t want the system to inflate while someone
is working on your vehicle. The air bag system does not need regular
maintenance. Your Cadillac dealer and the
1994 Fleetwood Service
Manual have information about the air bag system, including proper
service procedures and disposal.
When electrical work is done under the hood or inside your vehicle, the
ignition should be in the “Lock’’ position
if possible. Avoid wires wrapped
with yellow tape, or yellow connectors. They are probably part
of the air
bag system.

RIGHT FRONT PASSENGER POSITION
The right front passenger’s safety belt works the same way as the driver’s
safety belt. See “Driver Position,” earlier in this part.
When the lap portion of the belt is pulled out all the way, it
will lock. If it
does, let it go back all the way and start -again.
Be sure to use the correct buckle when buckling your lap-shoulder belt. If
you find that the latch plate will not go fully into the buckle, see if you are
using the buckle for the center passenger position.
CENTER- FRONT PASSENGER POSITION
Lap Belt
Your vehicle has a- front split seat, and someone can sit -in the center
position.

under it, the belt would apply force at your abdomen. This could cause
serious or even fatal injuries. The shoulder belt should go over the
shoulder and across the chest. These parts
of the body are best able to
take belt restraining forces.
The safety belt locks
if there's a sudden stop or a crash, or if you pull it
very quickly out
of the retractor.
