For the 1948 model, Cadillac
introduced the legendary
tail fin
which set the trend in automotive
styling for nearly two decades. This
was followed
by the 1949 model with
the two door hardtop Coupe DeVille
and the modern overhead valve,
high compression
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
sentinel and four door hard tops all
debuted in these years. In
1957 the
Eldorado Brougham featured ad-
vances such as air suspension, mem-
ory seat, automatic electric
door
locks, transistor radio, a brushed stainless steel roof
and low profile
tires.
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,

Cruise Control

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine CRUISE CONTROL
With Cruise Control, you can maintain a speed of about 25 mph (40
kmih) or more without keeping your foot on the accelerator. This can
really help on long trips. Cruise Control does not work at speeds below
about
25 mph (40 km/h).
When you apply your brakes, the Cruise Control shuts off.
Cruise Control can be dangerous where you can’t drive safely
at a steady speed.
So, don’t use your Cruise Control on
winding roads or in heavy traffic.
Cruise Control can be dangerous on slippery roads. On such
roads, fast changes in tire traction can cause needless wheel
spinning, and
you could lose control. Don’t use Cruise
Control on slippery roads.
To Set Crucse Control
1. Move the Cruise
Control switch
to
“ON ”

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine If you leave your Cruise Control switch on when you’re not
using Cruise,
you might hit a button and go into Cruise when
you don’t want to. You could be startled and even lose control.
Keep the Cruise Control switch
“OFF” until you want to use it.

To Resume a Set Speed..
Suppose you set your Cruise Control at a desired speed and then you
apply the brake. This, of course, shuts off the Cruise Control. But you
don’t need to reset it. Once you’re going about
25 mph (40 kmih) or
more, you can move the Cruise Control switch from
“ON” to ‘‘,/A? for
about half a second.
You’ll go right back up to your chosen speed and stay there.
I I
A CAUTION:
If you hold the switch at %/A” longer than half a second, the
vehicle will keep going faster until you release the switch or
apply the brake. You could be startled and even lose control.
So
unless you want to go faster, don’t hold the switch at “RIA.”

To Increase Speed FWaile Using Cruise Control
There are two ways to go to a higher speed. Here’s the first:
1. Use the accelerator pedal to get to the higher speed.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 2. Push the button at the end of the lever, then release the button and
the accelerator pedal. Yodll now cruise at the higher speed.
Here’s the second way to go to
a higher speed:
1. Move the Cruise switch from “ON” to “R/A.’, Hold it there unru you
2. To increase your speed in very small amounts, move the switch to
get
up to the speed
you want, and then release the switch.
“R/A” Each time you do this, your vehicle will go about 1 mph (1.6
km/h) faster.
4.6L (Northstar)
The accelerate feature will only work after you have set the Cruise
Control speed by pushing the
“SET CRUISE” button.
To Reduce Speed While Using Cruise Control
1. Push in the button at the end of the lever until you reach the lower
speed you want, then release it.
2. To slow down in very small amounts, push the button for less than half
a second. Each time you do this, you’ll go 1 mph (1.6 km/h) slower.
Pussing Another Khicle while Using Cruise Control
Use the accelerator pedal to increase your speed. When you take your
foot off
the pedal, your vehicle will slow down to the Cruise Control
speed you set earlier.
Using Cruise Control on Hills
How well your Cruise Control will work on hills depends upon your
speed, load, and the steepness
of the hills. When going up steep hills, you
may have to step
on the accelcrator pedal to maintain your speed. When
going downhill, you may have to brake or shift
to a lower gear to keep
your speed down.
Of course, applying the brake takes you out of Cruise
Control.
Many drivers find this to bc too much trouble and don’t use
Cruise Control on steep hills.
