Few automobiles are fortunate enough to have the rich heritage
that is Cadillac. The name Cadillac is appropriately that of
Antoine de La Mothe Cadillac, the French military commander
who founded the city of Detroit in
1701.
What better name for
the oldest automobile manufacturer in Detroit.
Henry
M.
Leland, known as the master of precision,
initiated
bs
precision manufacturing techniques at the
founding of Cadillac in 1902. His exacting standards
prompted the motto by which Cadillac has been guided
over the years
-
“Craftsmanship A Creed
-
Accuracy
A Law.”
The introduction of the first four cylinder engine in 1905
led the industry and enabled Cadillacs to travel at speeds
up to
50
mph.
For attention to quality and innovation, the Royal
Automobile Club of England awarded the prestigious
Dewar Trophy
to Cadillac twice
. . .
first in 1908 for
achieving perfect interchangeability of parts and again
for introducing the electric self starter, electric lighting
and ignition system
on
19 12 models. Cadillac is the
only American manufacturer to win this honor and
the only manufacturer
in
the
world to win it twice.
As
commonplace as standardized parts are today, in 1908
parts were still individually hand fitted both in
production and service.

Standardization opened the eyes
of
the industrial world
and was the cornerstone
of
modern
assembly
line
production. From this achievement evolved the
reference to Cadillac as “Standard
of
the World.”
In 1909 Cadillac was purchased by the then new
General Motors Corporation.
Convenience, cleanliness and all-weather comfort were
greatly enhanced in 1910 when Cadillac became the first
manufacturer to offer closed bodies as standard equipment.
“The Penalty of Leadership” fist appeared in the
January
2,
1915 issue
of
The
Saturday Evening Post as
an
expression
of
the Cadillac commitment to leadership,
quality
and innovation.
It
is widely regarded as one
of
the
vi
finest documents ever written. It was published following
the
introduction
of
the
first production V8 engine, which
was standard in
all
Cadillacs beginning with the 19 15
model.
Many Cadillac “firsts” have followed over the years,
including
the
synchro-mech clashless transmission, a
nationwide comprehensive service policy, security plate
glass, chrome plating and the first car to be designed by
a stylist (1927 LaSalle/Harley Earl). The ’30s witne.ssed
production of the powerful, smooth and quiet
V12
and
V16
engines.
The
crisp, contemporary lines
of
the 1938
60
Special series ushered
in
a new era in styling.

During World War
11,
shortly after Pearl Harbor,
Cadillac discontinued car production for the first time
since 1902 in order
to
construct light tanks, combat
vehicles and internal parts for Allison V1710 engines.
Two
Cadillac
V8
engines and Hydra-Matic
transmissions were used in each MSAI and M24 tanks.

There are, to be sure, many ways to describe the
superlative motor car pictured. “Beauty,”
“majesty,” “brilliance”
-
all apply, in their
fullest meaning, to this new Cadillac. And yet,
from
this
wonderful vocabulary, we have
selected “elegance” as the word that most fully
characterizes the Cadillac of 1960. The car’s
beautiful, clean-lined styling is certainly elegant
beyond compare.
Its
new interior luxury
provides a feeling of elegance that can be sensed
nowhere else in the world of motor cars. And
even its new performance
-
smooth, quiet and
effortless
-
might be summarized as “elegance
in motion.” Once you have seen and driven it for
yourself, we think you will agree that the word is
“elegance”
-
and that the car is Cadillac!

The electronics and computerization which were
pioneered by Cadillac in the
’70s
came of age in the
’80s
with Digital Fuel Injection and On-Board
Diagnostics in
1980,
four wheel Anti-lock Brakes on
1986
models and Traction Control in the fall
of
1989.
The
1992
Seville STS was the fist car ever to win all
three major automotive awards: Car
of
the Year, Motor
Trend; Ten Best List, Car
&
Driver; Car
of
the Year,
Automobile Magazine.
The year
1993
saw the introduction of the Northstar
system. The state of the art system includes the
32
valve,
dual overhead camshaft, Northstar
4.6

V8
engine,
4T80-E
electronically controlled automatic transaxle,
road sensing suspension, speed sensitive steering,
anti-lock brakes and traction control.

For more than nine decades Cadillac has been a leader
in
quality and technical innovation. Now more than ever,
Cadillac is “Creating
a
Higher Standard.”

Seats and Restraint Systems
Here you’ll find information about the seats in your
Cadillac and how to use your safety belts properly.
You
can also learn about some things you should
not
do with
air bags and safety belts.
Seats and Seat Controls
This
section tells you about the seats
--
how to adjust
them, and also about reclining front seatbacks and
head restraints.
Power
Seat
Controls
The controls are located
on
both front door armrests.
0
The front TILT control makes the front portion
of
the
seat cushion move up or down.
1-1
The rear TILT control makes the rear portion
of
the
1
seat cushion move up or down.
Moving the center control to the right or left makes
the whole
seat
cushion move up or down.
Moving the center control backward or forward
makes the whole seat move rearward or forward.
Memory Seat (Fleetwood Brougham)
p
To program the memory seat:
I.
Make sure the vehicle
is
in
PARK
(P).
2.
Adjust the drrver’s seat the way you want
it.
3.
Press the SET button.
4.
Move the memory switch to
1.
When your Fleetwood is in PARK
(P)
move the memory
switch
to
1
to recall the seat setting. Program the
memory seat for an additional driver following the
preceding steps, but move the memory switch to
2.
The EXIT button allows you to get out of your vehicle
more easily. The EXIT button
is
programmed the same
as the memory selections. Position the seat fully back
and fully down.
If you select the wrong memory switch or EXIT button,
you can cancel
it
by pressing any
of
the SEAT
ADJUSTER controls.
But
don’t
have a seatback
reclined
if your
vehicle
is
moving.
I)
Sitting in a reclined position when your vehicle is
in
motion can be dangerous. Even
if
you buckle
up,
your safety belts
can’t
do their job when
you’re reclined like this.
The shoulder belt can’t do
its
job because
it
won’t be against your body. Instead,
it
will
be
in
front
of
you.
In
a
crash you could go into
it,
receiving neck
or
other injuries.
The lap belt can’t do, its job either. In
a
crash the
belt could go up over your abdomen. The belt
forces would be there, not
at
your pelvic bones.
This
could cause serious internal injuries.
For proper protection when the vehicle
is
in
motion, have the seatback upright. Then
sit
well back
in
the seat and wear your safety
belt properly.
