1996 CADILLAC FLEETWOOD rear view mirror

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Mirrors
Electrochromic Mirror
Your Cadillac has an automatic inside rearview mirror.
During the day
it works like a regular mirror, but at
night it adjusts for the glare of headlamps behind you.
The
mirror delays before switching from day to night
mode.
This change may take a few seconds. This delay
prevents rapid changing of the mirror as you drive under
lights and through traffic.
On/Off Switch
Press the switch located at the base of the mirror to turn
on the auto-dimming feature. Press it
again to turn off.
Reverse Gear Day Mode
When the shift lever is placed in REVERSE (R), the
mirror changes to the daytime mode for a bright image
in the mirror as you back up.
Front Reading Lamps
There are two reading lamps located on the rearview
mirror.
Press the switch next to the lamp that you want
to turn on
or off.

DEFROST: To get fog or ice off the windshield,
press this button. The fan comes on at a set speed or you
can choose another fan speed. It will work better if you
first clear any
ice and snow from the hood and the air
inlet between the hood and the windshield.
DEFOG: Press this button to divide the air between the
windshield and the heater outlets. This is useful when
fog appears
on the windshield or side glass due to a
sudden rain or snowy conditions.
Rear Window Defogger
DEFOG: To get fog or ice off the rear window,
press this button.
It warms your rear window and both
outside rearview mirrors.

10 minutes, it will go off by itself,
I NOTICE:
Don’t use a razor blade or something else sharp
on the inside
of the rear window. If you do, you
could cut or damage the warming grid, and the
repairs wouldn’t be covered by your warranty.
Audio Systems

easily and give years of listening pleasure. You will get
the most enjoyment out
of it if you acquaint yourself
with it first. Find out what your Delco system can
do
and how to operate all its controls, to be sure you’re
getting the most out of the advanced engineering that
went into it.

Is there actually such a condition as “highway hypnosis”?
Or is it just plain falling asleep at the wheel? Call it
highway hypnosis, lack of awareness, or whatever.
There is something about an easy stretch
of road with
the same scenery, along with the hum of the tires on the
road, the drone of the engine, and the rush of the wind
against the vehicle that can make you sleepy. Don’t
let it happen to you! If it does, your vehicle can leave
the road in
less than a second, and you could crash and
be injured.
What can you do about highway hypnosis? First, be
aware that it can happen.
Then here are some tips:
Make sure your vehicle is well ventilated, with a
comfortably cool interior.
Keep your eyes moving. Scan the road ahead and to
the sides. Check your rearview mirrors and your
instruments frequently.
0 If you get sleepy, pull off the road into a rest, service
or parking area and take a nap, get some exercise, or
both. For safety, treat drowsiness on the highway as
an emergency.
Hill and Mountain Roads
Driving on steep hills or mountains is different from
driving in flat
or rolling terrain.
