MAP LIGHT<br />
For your convenience, a map light is located under the top edge<br />
at the center of the instrument panel. With front doors closed, it<br />
may be operated manually by means of the switch at the front of<br />
the map light. It automatically serves as a courtesy light when<br />
either front door is open on Sedan models. On Coupes, the dome<br />
lamp serves as a courtesy light when the door is open.<br />
CONTROLLED VENTILATION<br />
Air for ventilation enters through ducts located directly beneath<br />
the windshield. This location prevents excessive intake of exhaust<br />
fumes from other cars. Incoming fresh air passes over water<br />
separators and is admitted to the passenger compartment through<br />
valves controlled by push-pull knobs. The control knobs—one for<br />
each side of the car—are conveniently located on the Instrument<br />
Control Cluster. The control for the right side of the car is located<br />
on the right at the steering column, while the left-hand control is<br />
at the left side of the steering column.<br />
When direct outside ventilation is not desired, the knobs should<br />
be pushed in. This prevents the entrance of outside air, and also<br />
allows diversion through the <strong>Cadillac</strong> Automatic Heating System<br />
when that system is turned on during the cold weather months.<br />
