How to Operate the Cruise Control on Roewe i5?

[FaithMarie]

Roewe i5 cruise control operation method: Press the power button to turn on the system, at which point the cruise control indicator on the dashboard lights up. Accelerate to the desired speed, press the SET button, and then you can release the accelerator pedal with your right foot, as the speed is now set at the current rate. You can fine-tune the speed by pressing RES+ and SET-. Below is detailed information: Detailed steps for operating the cruise control on Roewe i5: 1. Activate cruise control speed: Slide the switch to the ON position to turn on the speed control system. 2. Set cruise speed: After the system is activated, when the car reaches the desired speed, press the SET button once to maintain that speed continuously. After setting the cruise speed, you can still accelerate using the accelerator pedal as usual. Releasing the accelerator pedal will restore the speed to the set cruise speed. However, if after acceleration, the speed exceeds the cruise speed by more than 10 km/h and maintains that speed for more than 5 minutes, the cruise speed must be reset. 3. Decrease cruise speed: Press the SET button to decrease the speed by 1.5 km/h; if the button is held down, the car will continue to decelerate. Once the button is released, the current speed is stored in memory. If the SET button is released when the speed is below 40 km/h, the stored value is deleted. In this case, if needed, you can use the SET button to reset the cruise speed when the speed exceeds 40 km/h. 4. Increase cruise speed: Without pressing the accelerator pedal, slide the switch to the RES position to increase the set cruise speed. Each press of the RES switch increases the speed by 1.5 km/h. If the switch is held down, the car will continue to accelerate. Once the RES switch is released, the current speed is stored in memory. 5. Temporarily deactivate cruise control: Press the brake pedal or clutch pedal, or slide the switch to the OFF position to temporarily deactivate the system. The set cruise speed is still stored in memory. To restore the set cruise speed, release the brake pedal or clutch pedal, or slide the switch to RES. If the set cruise speed was not stored when the system was temporarily deactivated, you can set a new cruise speed by sliding the switch. First, slide the switch to the RES position and hold it there until the desired speed is reached. Release the switch to store the set speed in the system. 6. Completely deactivate cruise control: Slide the switch to the OFF position, or turn off the ignition switch when the car is stationary, to completely deactivate the system.

I frequently use the cruise control feature in my Roewe i5, especially when driving on highways. It's quite user-friendly: there's a dedicated button on the steering wheel - first press the speedometer-like icon to activate the system, then press the SET button to lock in your desired speed once stabilized. To adjust speed, simply tap the adjacent up/down buttons to increase or decrease by a few km/h. The system intelligently cancels cruise control automatically when braking in traffic. Press RES to resume original speed. This feature significantly reduces fatigue on long drives and helps avoid speeding tickets. Note: Use only on highways or low-traffic roads, avoid activating in rain/snow to prevent slippage. Regularly check steering wheel button responsiveness.

Operating the cruise control on the Roewe i5 is quite intuitive and not overly complicated. The buttons on the right side of the steering wheel serve as the control center: press the cruise button to activate the system, and when you reach your desired speed, press the SET button to lock it in. Adjust your speed using the up and down arrow buttons—it's very convenient to increase or decrease. To temporarily cancel, simply press the CANCEL button or hit the brakes; to resume your set speed, just press RES. The system also includes automatic brake sensing, so avoid using it in the city or heavy traffic where external interference might cause errors. This system integrates an electronic control module, so keep the buttons clean to prevent sticking—this ensures both safety and fuel efficiency. On highways, combining it with speed limit sign recognition allows the cruise control to adapt more intelligently to road conditions, making driving even more effortless.
