V8 engine
Engineering innovations, con-
veniences and styling dominated the
'50s and '60s. Cruise control, auto-
matic climate control,
tilt and
telescoping steering wheels, twilight

vances such as air suspension, mem-
ory seat, automatic electric door
locks, transistor radio, a brushed
1
stainless steel roof and low profile
tires.
The Eldorado,I introduced in
1953, was redesigned for 1967 as the
first front wheel drive personal
lux-
ury car. The 472 cu. in. V8 engine
used in
all Cadillacs in 1968 and
1969 was enlarged to 500 cu. in. for
all
1970 Eldorados.
An Air Cushion Restraint Sys-
tem (airbag) was available for
1974,
1975 and 1976 Cadillacs.
Analog Electronic Fuel Injec-
tion was available, on
1975 Cadillacs
and was standard on
the new inter-
national size 1976 Seville. In 1978,
the Trip Computer option incor-

STARTING YOUR ENGINE
Move your shift lever to “P” (Park) or “N” (Neutral). Your engine won’t
start
in any other position -- that’s a safety feature. To restart when you’re
already moving, use
“N’ (Neutral) only.

NOTICE:
Don’t try to shift to “P” (Park, if your Cadillac is moving. If you
do, you could damage the transaxle. Shift to

light will come on
to tell you it is
working.
The system will go off after a four minute heating cycle (two minutes if
you shift out
of “P” (Park) within the first two minutes of the cycle). If
you want it to cycle again, push 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 pushing the switch again.
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 interior fading.
There is a metal film in the windshield which will block out some radio or
microwave signals. Therefore, the heated windshield will reduce the
useful range of devices such as garage door openers and radar detectors.
(In certain states radar detectors are legal.)
Rear Window Defogger
To get fog or ice off the
rear window, push the
Rear Defogger button.
With it, your rear window and both outside rearview mirrors are warmed.
To turn it off, push the button again. After 10 minutes, it will go off by
itself.
To make it go longer, just push the button again.

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.

FM Stereo
FM stereo will give you the best sound. But FM signals will reach only
about 10 to 40 miles (16 to 65 km). And, tall buildings or hills can
interfere with
FM signals, causing the sound to come and go.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 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.
AM can pick up noise from things like storms and power
lines. Try reducing the treble to reduce this noise
if you ever get it.
This means your radio can produce quality AM sound comparable to FM
stereo. AMAX3 reduces noise without reducing the high frequencies you
need for the best sound. In addition to improved sound quality, AMAX8
includes more station on the AM band.
You don’t have to do anything in
your radio because AMAX@ is automatic.
AM Stereo
This means the Delco@ system can receive C-QUAM8 stereo broadcasts.
Many AM stations around the country use C-QUAM3 to produce stereo,
though some do not. (C-QUAM@ is a registered trademark
of Motorola,
Inc.) If your Delco@ system can get C-QUAMa, your “STEREO” light
will come on when you’re receiving it.
