How to Exit Cruise Control?
2 Answers
Press the cruise control switch (control) button to turn off the cruise control function. The cruise control buttons are usually located near the steering wheel and mainly come in three types: lever-style, steering wheel button-style, and steering wheel control group-style. The specific operation methods are as follows: 1. Press the power button to activate the system, and the cruise control indicator light on the dashboard will illuminate; 2. Accelerate to the desired speed and press the SET button. At this point, you can release the accelerator pedal with your right foot, and the speed will be maintained at the current level; 3. You can fine-tune the speed using the "RES+" and "SET-" buttons; 4. There are three ways to deactivate cruise control: stepping on the brake, pressing the cancel (CANCEL) button, or pressing the power (ON/OFF) button; 5. If cruise control is canceled by stepping on the brake or pressing the cancel button, you can press the RES button to resume the previous cruise control speed.
I used to use cruise control frequently while driving, and there are actually quite a few ways to exit it. Pressing the brake is the most straightforward—just a light tap and it stops immediately, automatically canceling the cruise control. Alternatively, you can press the cancel button on the steering wheel, and a single tap will pause it. Some cars even have an on/off switch, which turns off the entire function when pressed. I often drive long distances, and when encountering traffic jams, I usually exit by pressing the brake to ensure safety. I’ve also noticed that the system might automatically disengage when going uphill, so don’t rely on it too much. Remember, after exiting, the speed will maintain its current value, so manual speed control is necessary. Overall, it’s simple and practical—don’t overcomplicate it.
