hood, pull hood down gradually until it will drop of its own
weight. Always check to make sure hood is properly secured.
Luggage compartment
The lid on the luggage compartment is counterbalanced for
easy opening. It has a key-lock release. To open, insert the
key with the rounded head into the lock, which is located
behind the crest, turn key in a clockwise direction to release
lid. An interior light goes on when lid is raised. To close,
pull to a position six or eight inches from closing, remove
key and push lid firmly downward. This automatically locks
luggage compartment.
Remote-control trunk lock
Cadillac's Remote-Control Trunk Lock (available on some
models at extra cost) permits the driver to unlock and slightly
raise the trunk lid simply by pushing a button located in the
glove box. A red warning light on the left side of the instru-
ment cluster labeled "Trunk" will glow when the trunk lid is
unlocked. When the trunk lid is lowered, a latching mechanism
pulls the lid firmly closed and locks it. The trunk lid can also
be opened in the normal manner with a key from outside
the car. To prevent damage to the closing mechanism, avoid
slamming the lid when closing. Once unlocked, the lid must
be fully opened before the pull-down and locking can be
accomplished.

To help prevent illegal entry into the trunk, keep the glove
box locked when leaving the car unattended.
AUTOMATIC LEVEL CONTROL
Automatic Level Control maintains the rear height of the car
regardless of load in rear passenger compartment or luggage
compartment. The leveling system responds to actual changes
in load of passengers or luggage, and will compensate for
loads up to 500 pounds. A level car improves appearance as
well as ride, and reduces "bottoming" on severe bumps or
bumper scraping on steep ramps or driveways.
Automatic Level Control is standard on the Fleetwood Sixty
Special Sedan and Brougham, and Fleetwood Seventy-Fives,
and optional at extra cost on all other models.
