O
Ventilating System
Nothing
adds
so much to the enjoyment of
Cadillac
motoring as the
ease
of
controlling
ventilation to suit the occupants. Great care has
been taken to work this out satisfactorily.
Cadillac
All-Weather
Ventilation
permits
adequate
air circulation at all times, even under
adverse weather conditions when windows must be closed. There
are two ventilating
passages
behind the radiator
grille
that
permit
the delivery of air to the
driving
compartment through screened
openings.
Control
of this system is maintained through valves,
operated by knobs located just below each end of the radio
grille.
The knobs can be pulled out to provide the
degree
of ventilation
desired.
Each
ventilator is also provided
with
a door to deflect the
air
inside the car.
