How to Activate Cruise Control in Ford Escort?

4 Answers

Inside the Ford Escort, press the CANRES button to cancel cruise control or resume cruising. Introduction to Cruise Control: Cruise control is a system that allows the driver to maintain a fixed preset speed without operating the steering wheel, clutch, or accelerator pedal. By turning on the cruise control switch, the system automatically adjusts the throttle opening based on changes in road resistance to maintain a constant speed. Precautions for Cruise Control: Do not use cruise control on winding roads or slippery surfaces. On steep slopes, adjust the accelerator pedal as needed to maintain speed. When going downhill, you may need to shift gears depending on the slope.

I love using cruise control when driving my Ford Escort on the highway. After starting the car, first locate the row of buttons on the left side of the steering wheel, press the one with the speedometer icon in the middle, and a white cruise light will illuminate on the instrument panel. Then, accelerate to over 30km/h and press the SET button with the minus sign - the instrument panel light will turn green indicating successful activation. You can adjust speed using the +/- buttons, with each press changing speed by 2km/h. Pressing the brake or CANCEL button temporarily deactivates it, while the RES button resumes the set speed. Remember not to use this function in rain or snow as speed may increase unexpectedly on downhill slopes, and always keep your foot near the brake pedal.

After using it a few times, I found it to be very fuel-efficient. After starting the car, locate the cruise control switch directly below the left side of the steering wheel and press the ON button to activate the function. Drive the car to the desired speed (e.g., set it to 80 on the highway), then briefly press the SET button to lock the current speed. At this point, you don't need to press the accelerator pedal, and the car will maintain a constant speed. To increase speed, repeatedly press the RES button; to decrease speed, press the SET button. If the car ahead suddenly slows down, lightly tap the brake to pause the cruise control. Once the road conditions improve, press RES to return to the previous speed. Using this feature on long drives keeps your legs from getting tired, but remember to manually control the speed when going through curves.

Three-step operation: Turn on the system by pressing ON, accelerate to the desired speed (only effective above 30km/h), and briefly press SET to lock. To cancel cruise control, either step on the brake or press the CANCEL button—the green cruise light on the dashboard will turn off, indicating the system is deactivated. Suddenly pressing OFF may cause abrupt deceleration, which is unsafe. It's recommended for use on straight highway sections; avoid frequent activation in city traffic with constant stops and starts. The +/- buttons on the steering wheel allow for sensitive speed adjustments—just a few light presses are sufficient.

Will gas stations shortchange you on fuel?

Gas stations will not shortchange you on fuel. Below are the reasons why gas stations do not shortchange on fuel and some refueling precautions: Reasons why they won't shortchange: There are three layers of safeguards. Every fuel dispenser has the first layer of safeguard built in. The second layer consists of three lead seals between the dispenser's control computer motherboard and the body, the adjustment device of the flow measurement transducer, and between the encoder and the flow measurement transducer. The third layer is that the dispenser has a dedicated POS machine for verification. Refueling precautions: When choosing a gas station, try to opt for large, reputable ones. Avoid refueling during midday when the sun is intense and temperatures are high. When driving in the city, it's usually unnecessary to fill the tank completely. This is because city driving involves frequent stops and starts, and a full tank adds extra load to the engine.

How long does it usually take for a new car to arrive at a 4S store after its launch?

For less popular models, it usually takes about a month from the launch to the availability at 4S stores. For popular models, immediate delivery may require a premium, or it could take one to three months. Imported models typically take around three months as well. Below is a relevant introduction to considerations when purchasing a new car: Verify relevant documents: Such as the invoice, vehicle purchase tax certificate, vehicle certification, chassis imprint, spare key, manual, maintenance manual, and cigarette lighter. Check if the vehicle information matches: Mainly verify if the chassis number and engine number match those on the certification. Also, check the production date of the car and try to avoid selecting a car that has been in stock for more than half a year. Inspect the vehicle's appearance: After cleaning the car, move it to a sunny area to inspect the paint. When checking the paint, position yourself at a 45-degree angle to the area being inspected and observe its appearance under sunlight. Also, check for any damage to the front and rear light mirrors and the rearview mirrors. Pay special attention to the roof, as it is the most overlooked yet most vulnerable area. Given the long period from production to sale, there's a possibility of damage from falling objects.
