as passenger conveyances. A trailer cannot be towed behind
a passenger car without having some effect on safe operation,
dependability and economy. Although all Cadillac cars will
pull a trailer as satisfactorily as other makes of passenger cars,
maximum satisfaction and pleasure will be derived through
use of proper equipment and avoiding overloads and other
abusive operation.
Since many kinds of trailer hitches are sold, it is not practi-
cal for Cadillac to evaluate and test all hitches. We recom-
mend only that the owner satisfy himself as to the strength
of the hitch and the method by which it is attached to the
car. Generally, trailer tongue loads should be minimized
by maintaining good balance of the load in the trailer.
General information on trailer hauling is available and can be
obtained by writing to Cadillac Motor Car Division, Service
Department, Detroit, Michigan.

Temperature gage
The engine temperature gage is located on the lower left side
of the instrument cluster. Normally, the gage pointer will
move gradually from the extreme left when the engine is cold,
to approximately the one-quarter mark.
Do not be alarmed if the pointer registers above the center
range in heavy traffic or on long drives during warm weather.
The pressure-controlled radiator overflow will normally pre-
vent coolant losses up to 259° F. If the pointer reaches "H" or
if the coolant boils, indicated by a buzzing sound from the
radiator cap, stop the car immediately and have the condition
causing the overheating corrected. CAUTION: Before remov-
ing radiator cap, see page 52.
