COMFORT CONTROLS AND AUDIO SYSTEMS
In this section you'll find out how to operate the comfort control systems
and audio systenx offered
with your Cadillac. Be sure to read about the
particular system supplied
with your vehicle.
YOUR CADILLACAIR SYSTEM
Outside Air
Outside air flows through your vehicle when it is moving. It enters your
vehicle through an inlet at
the base of the windshield. Keep this area clear
of dcbris. Under most operating conditions this system uses outside air
when heating or cooling your vehicle. If you select the 60" F (16' C)
AUTO setting, a door will close to stop the flow of most outside air
allowing recirculated interior air to cool your vehicle. Your vehicle can
also use this recirculate mode during normal auto air conditioning if
maximum cooling is needed to maintain the selected temperature.
Air Outlets
.. , . .. .
Air outlets are located
in the center and at
each side of the
instrument panel.
You
can adjust the direction
of airflow by moving
the center cbntrol
levers
or stop the
airflow bv moving the
lever locked
on each
side of the outlets
downward.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine The system will go off after a four-minute heating cycle. If you shift out of
PARK (P), the system will only cyclc for two minutes. If you want it to
cycle again? press the switch. It will go on for two-minute cycles after that.
If it has cleared your windshield before the cycle is over, you can turn it
off by just pressing the switch again.
Use
the defroster or defog features of the Electronic Climate Control to
clear fog from the windshield as previously described. In warm weather
the heated windshield system helps keep the vehicle's interior cool by
blocking much of the sun's heat producing radiation. The system's solar
control properties
also help reduce intcrior fading.
There
is a metal film in the windshield which will block out some radio or
microwave signals. Therefore,
the hcated windshield will reduce the
useful range of devices such as garage door openers and radar detectors.
(In certain states radar detectors are legal.)
AUDIO SYSTEMS
Your Delco"' audio system has been designed to operate easily and give
years of listening pleasure. You will get the most cnjoyment out of your
audio system
if you acquaint vourselfwith it first. Find out what your
Delco" system can
do and f& to opcrate all its controls, to be sure
you're getting the most out of the advanced engineering cj that went into it.

H
FM Stereo
FM stereo will give you the best sound, however, FM signals will only
rclich about 10 to 40 miles ( 16 to 65 km), Ell1 buildings or hills may
interfere with
FM signals causing sounds to fade and may also cause
popping. crackling
or momentary hissing noises.
Y
AM
The range for most AM stations is greater than for FM, especially at
night. The longer
range, however, can cause stations to interfere with
each other. (FCC regdations require some AM radio stations to reduce
signal strength
at nieh to mhimize interference.) AM can pick up noise
from things like
stohs and powcr lines. Try reciucing the treble to reduce
this noise if you ever gct it.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Tips about Your Audio System
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 hclp avoid hearing loss or damage:
0 Adjust the volume control to the lowest setting.
0 Increase volume slowly until you hear comfortably and clearly.
~~ ~~~~~~~~~
NOTICE:
Before you add any sound equipment to your vehicle -- like a
tape player, CB radio, mobile telephone or two-way radio
-- be
sure you can add what you want.
If you can, it's very important
to do it properly. Added sound equipment may interfere with the
operation
of your vehicle's engine, Delco" radio or other
systems, and even damage them. And, your vehicle's systems
may interfere with the operation of sound equipment that has
~ been added improperly.
So before adding sound equipment, check with your dealer and
be sure to check Federal rules covering mobile radio
and
telephone units.
