I've been driving the Lamando for several years, and the cruise control is really handy, perfect for highway driving—saving fuel and effort. First, make sure the car is moving at a speed of at least 30 km/h. Locate the control stalk on the left side of the steering wheel, with the cruise icon button on top. Press it to activate the system, and a prompt will light up on the dashboard. Then, accelerate to your desired speed, say 60 or 80 km/h, and gently push the stalk upward to set the current speed as the cruise speed. After that, release the accelerator—no need to keep your foot on it—the car will maintain a steady speed on its own. For minor speed adjustments, push the stalk up to accelerate or pull it down to decelerate. Pressing the brake or the cancel button will temporarily deactivate the system. I usually use it on highways, especially during long trips, as it reduces fatigue. But avoid using it in rain or snow to prevent skidding accidents. Regularly check your car’s condition to ensure the cruise control functions properly—safety always comes first.
