Cruise Control<br />

The benefits of automatically maintained<br />

cruising speeds and a warning against exceeding<br />

any pre-selected speed are provided<br />

by the <strong>Cadillac</strong> Cruise Control. Set in AUTO<br />

position, it maintains the speed selected on<br />

the dial without foot pressure on the accelerator.<br />

A touch of the brake disengages<br />

Cruise Control until car is re-accelerated to<br />

speed setting. It is also disengaged by moving<br />

control switch to OFF or turning ignition<br />

off. At any dial setting, a gentle resistance<br />

by the accelerator pedal warns the driver<br />

whenever he is about to exceed his dialselected<br />

speed. Green light reminds driver<br />

when Cruise Control is on AUTO (automatic).<br />

LIGHTS<br />

Twilight Sentinel<br />

Set the Twilight Sentinel control lever, integral<br />

with headlamp switch, to automatic<br />

and, whenever the ignition is ON, the headlamps<br />

and taillamps of the car will automatically<br />

turn on when lighting is required<br />

as at dusk or whenever daylight is otherwise<br />

reduced. Lights are automatically turned off<br />

when sufficient daylight returns. Twilight<br />

Sentinel also permits leaving car lamps, including<br />

either cornering lamp (as selected<br />

by directional signal lever), lighted for up<br />

to a minute and a half after the ignition is<br />

turned OFF, thus providing a pathway of<br />

light away from the car, then automatically<br />

turning lamps off. Control lever may be set<br />

on manual when driver prefers for normal<br />

headlamp pull switch operation.<br />

Guide-Matic (headlamp control)<br />

An appreciated nighttime driving aid, Guide-<br />

Matic automatically dims the headlamps of<br />

the car when another car approaches from<br />

the opposite direction or when the <strong>Cadillac</strong><br />

driver draws closer to the taillights of a<br />

car ahead. An overriding foot switch permits<br />

signalling drivers who neglect to dim their<br />

car's bright lights in return. Guide-Matic is<br />

adjustable for sensitivity or may be turned<br />

OFF with control integral with headlamp<br />

switch.<br />
