Power Steering
If the steering system power as-
sist fails due to some malfunction,
or because the engine has stalled,
the car can still be steered. How-
ever, much greater effort is re-
quired, particularly in sharp turns.
Tilt Steering Wheel
The tilt steering wheel (optional
equipment) can be tilted up above
normal position to provide addi-
tional room for entrance and exit
as well as selected driving posi-
tions below normal height. This
permits individual selection of the
most natural position for all driv-
ing conditions. On long trips the
steering wheel position can be
changed to minimize tension and
fatigue.
The tilt mechanism is operated
by lifting up on the small control
lever on the left side of the
steering column just below the
directional signal, moving the
steering wheel to the selected
position, and releasing the lever.
Cruise-Master
The optional Cruise Master Sys-
tem provides automatic speed con-
trol for your comfort when driving
on freeways, turnpikes, or other
non-congested highways.
To engage the Cruise Master,
