1969 Cadillac - GM Heritage Center

Ash Tray Unit
A larger capacity, single-chamber ash tray and
lighter unit is located below the instrument cluster
and away from the A/C outlet just to the right of the
steering column, easily accessible to both driver and
center passenger. The larger unit also provides ample
space for resting a pipe, a convenience pipe smokers
will certainly find to their liking. Ball bearing
mountings make opening and closing the ash tray
unit quick and easy. A single-chamber ash tray and
lighter unit is located in the right front door armrest
for the convenience of the right front seat passenger.
Safety Belt Stowage Receptacle
This practical stowage provision that is built into
the front seat cushion below the center armrest
permits the front compartment safety belts and
buckles to be neatly stowed when not in use.
Constructed of sturdy plastic the stowage receptacle
is attractively finished to harmonize with any trim
selection and is applicable to all models except the
Calais Coupe and Hardtop Sedan and Seventy-Five
Limousine.
Automatic Locking Seat Belt Retractor
This Cadillac exclusive for 1969 puts an end to
manual seat belt adjustment for the driver and right
front seat passenger. Simply pull out the retractor
end of the belt and fasten it to the buckle end. The
seat belt then retracts automatically into a snug
position on the body, and the locking device keeps
it securely in place. Merely turning the locking
button on the retractor housing releases the automatic
locking feature, and the driver or passenger
may lean forward and easily open the glove compartment
with the belt stii! fastened. After returning
to a comfortable sitting position, the locking device
automatically re-engages and the seat belt once
again locks securely in- place.
