How to activate cruise control on GS4?

First, turn on the cruise control (labeled as CRU or CCS). When driving above 40 km/h, press the SET- button to set the current speed. Use the + button to increase speed and the - button to decrease speed. Alternatively, you can accelerate using the throttle and then press SET- again to set the new speed. Press the brake to cancel cruise control, or press RES+ to resume the previously set cruising speed. Information about cruise control: 1. The Cruise Control System (abbreviated as CCS), also known as speed control device or autonomous driving system. 2. This device allows drivers to avoid continuously operating the throttle pedal during long highway drives, reducing fatigue and unnecessary speed fluctuations while improving fuel efficiency.
I've been driving the GS4 for almost two years now, and I often use cruise control on long trips to save some effort. The operation is quite intuitive: first accelerate to your desired speed (above 60km/h for example), then press the SET button with an icon on the left side of the steering wheel - you can release the accelerator pedal then. To accelerate or decelerate, simply use the adjacent + and - buttons, each press adjusts by about 5km/h. Canceling is easy too - just lightly tap the brake or press the CANCEL button to turn it off. Remember to only use it on highways or open roads, never in congested urban areas to avoid delayed reactions causing accidents. I make it a habit to check button responsiveness before departure to prevent malfunctions at critical moments. It makes long-distance driving much easier on the feet and slightly stabilizes fuel consumption, but never rely on it during severe weather conditions.
As a car enthusiast, I find the cruise control design of the GS4 quite user-friendly. You first need to reach a speed above 40km/h, then press the start button to activate the system into standby mode, followed by pressing the SET button to lock the current speed. The speed can be adjusted using the control buttons on the steering wheel, and the system will automatically maintain the set value, but be aware that it may not remain completely stable on steep mountain roads. I also like to test the brake cancellation response on open roads to ensure its sensitivity. For safety, avoid using it during rainy or slippery road conditions to prevent skidding. If additional equipment is installed, such as an external navigation device, make sure it doesn't interfere with the car's original circuits. After long-term use, regularly check for any aging of the wiring harness, as electronic components may malfunction.
