HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL
Many people read their owner’s manual from beginning to end when they
first receive their new vehicle. This will help
you learn about the features
and controls for your vehicle. In this manual, you’ll find that pictures and
words work together to explain things quickly.
INDEX A good place to look for what you need is the Index in back of
the manual. It’s an alphabetical list of all that’s in the manual, and the
page number where you’ll find it.
SAFETY WMZNGSAND SWBOLS
You will find a number of safety cautions in this book. We use gray and
the word CAUTION to tell you about things that could hurt you if you
were to ignore the warning.
In the gray caution area,
we tell you what the hazard is. Then we tell you
what to do to help avoid or reduce the hazard. Please read these cautions.
If you don’t, you or others could be hurt.
You will also find a circle with a slash through it in this book. This safety
symbol means “Don’t,” “Don’t do this,’’ or “Don’t let this happen.”

LumbarIHeater Seat Controls (Fleetwood Brougham)
With this feature, you can change the shape of the driver’s or passenger’s
seatback. Adjust the power seat control first to get the proper position.
For the best adjustment, it is recommended that you first start with the
“MIDDLE” lumbar.
MIDDLE (Back
Support): Adjust
support for the
middle back.
UPPER (Back
Support): Adjust
support for the
upper back.
LOWER (Back
Support): Adjust
support for the
lower back.
Push the switch to either
“HI” or “LO” to turn on the heating element in
the seat.
Designed primarily for use on damp and chilly days, the
“LO” setting
warms the seatback and cushion until the seat approximates body
temperature.
On colder days, the “HI” setting heats the seats to an even
higher temperature.
To prevent uncomfortable overheating of the seats,
the heating elements are thermostatically regulated to automatically
maintain the temperature at the setting selected. A telltale light on the
control switch reminds
you that the heating system is in use. To preserve
the battery, the heated seats can only be used when the ignition is turned
on, and is deactivated when the ignition is turned
off.

HERE ARE QUESTIONS “Y PEOPLE
ANSWERS ASKABOUT SAFETYBELTS
-AND THE
Q: Won’t I be trapped in the vehicle after an accident ifI’m wearing a safety
belt?
A: You could be -- whether you’re wearing a safety belt or not. But you
can easily unbuckle a safety belt, even if you’re upside down. And
your chance
of being conscious during and after an accident, so you
can unbuckle and get out, is much greater if you are belted.
Q: Why don’t they just put in air bags so people won’t have to wear safety
belts?
A: Air bags, or Supplemental Inflatable Restraint systems, are in some
vehicles today and will be in more
of them in the future. But they are
supplemental systems only
-- so they work with safety belts, not
instead
of them. Every air bag system ever offered for sale has
required the use
of safety belts. Even if you’re in a vehicle that has
air bags, you still have to buckle up to get the most protection. That’s
true not only in frontal collisions, but especially in side and other
collisions.
Q : rf I’m a good driver, and I never drive far from home, why should I wear
safety belts?
A: You may be an excellent driver, but if you’re in an accident -- even
one that isn’t your fault
-- you and your passengers can be hurt.
Being a good driver doesn’t protect you from things beyond your
control, such as bad drivers.
Most accidents occur within 25 miles (40 km) of home. And the
greatest number
of serious injuries and deaths occur at speeds of less
than
40 mph (65 kmk).
Safety belts are for everyone.
