How to activate cruise control on Audi A4?
2 Answers
Audi A4 activates cruise control by: 1. The cruise control switch is located on the lower left side of the steering wheel. Pushing it inward cancels cruise control, pushing it all the way turns off cruise control, and pulling it outward resumes cruise control; 2. Turning on the cruise control switch does not immediately activate the function. You also need to press the SET button to set the speed; 3. The SPEED button is the speed adjustment button. Lifting it up increases speed, while pushing it down decreases speed. Taking the 2021 Audi A4 (Imported) Avant Pioneer 40TFSI Fashion Dynamic model as an example: It is a mid-size 5-door, 5-seat station wagon with a length, width, and height of 4762mm, 1847mm, and 1436mm respectively, a wheelbase of 2825mm, equipped with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, and a top speed of 235 kilometers per hour.
I find setting the cruise control on the Audi A4 quite simple, making it ideal for long highway drives. Once your speed reaches 40 km/h or above, there's a set of buttons on the left side of the steering wheel—first press the ON/OFF switch to activate the system. After the car stabilizes, press the SET button to lock the current speed, then use the + or - buttons for fine adjustments. To cancel it, gently tap the brake or press the CANCEL button. This feature helps reduce foot fatigue and improves fuel efficiency and safety, especially during steady-speed driving. Just remember to check if the car operates smoothly in manual mode, and avoid using it in rainy or slippery conditions to prevent skidding. Audi's design is thoughtful, with button placement that's intuitive. During regular maintenance, inspect the wiring for any signs of wear to ensure smooth operation.
