of lights on the left side of the instrument cluster. Under normal
conditions, this light will glow during engine cranking, but
will go out when the engine is running. In the event of a fluid
leak in either the front or rear hydraulic system, resulting in
excessive brake pedal travel during normal brake application,
the light labeled "Brake" will glow. Should this occur, im-
mediate inspection of the brake system should be made by
your Authorized Cadillac Dealer.
Oil pressure indicator light
If engine oil pressure is low, a red indicator light labeled
"OIL", located in the row of lights on the left side of the in-
strument cluster, will glow. Under normal conditions this
light will glow when the ignition is turned on, but will go
out when the engine is running. If it does not go out, the car
should not be operated until the cause of the low oil pressure
has been corrected by an Authorized Cadillac Dealer.
Generator indicator light
A red indicator light for the charging circuit is located in the
row of lights on the left side of the instrument cluster. The
light, labeled ,"GEN", glows whenever the generator is not
charging. In normal operation, it will light when the ignition
is turned on and will go out when the engine starts. The light
will also glow, but not as brightly, when the ignition switch
is in the accessory position. If it glows while the engine is
running, have your car checked by an Authorized Cadillac
Dealer.
Speedometer and odometer
The speedometer indicates car speed. The odometer indicates
distance traveled. It is divided into two sections—the left
half records accumulated mileage and the right half indicates
trip mileage. A reset knob for the trip mileage is located in the
instrument cluster just to the right of the odometer. To reset
trip mileage, push in on the reset knob and turn it clockwise
until all nines appear. Repeat the operation until all nines
again reappear, then reverse the knob until all zeros appear.
INSTRUMENT PANEL AND CONTROLS
Your new Cadillac has easy to read dials, instruments and
controls that are designed for your convenience. Only a few
minutes review is needed to gain an understanding of the
proper use of these instruments and controls. Refer to the
illustration on page 9 to acquaint yourself with the instru-
ments and controls on the instrument panel.
