Method to set cruise control on the GL8: 1. Press the cruise control button to enter standby mode, and the dashboard will display ICC; 2. When the vehicle reaches a certain speed, press the SET- button on the left to activate cruise control; 3. Use the RES+ button on the left side of the steering wheel to increase speed and the SET- button to decrease speed; 4. To exit cruise control, press the button on the left side of the steering wheel circle, or press the RES+ button to resume cruise control. The GL8 is an MPV model under the Buick brand. In terms of body dimensions, its length, width, and height are 5256mm, 1878mm, and 1776mm respectively, with a wheelbase of 3088mm.
Using the cruise control function in the GL8 is quite simple. There are usually buttons on the steering wheel, such as SET or RES keys. Start the vehicle and drive, accelerating to over 40 km/h. Press the CRUISE button to activate the system, then press SET to lock the current speed. Use the +/- buttons to fine-tune the speed. To cancel, either press the brake or the CANCEL button. The button locations may vary depending on the GL8 model year—the 2020 model typically has them on the left spoke of the steering wheel, while older models have them on the right. Once set, the electronic unit controls the throttle to maintain a steady, fuel-efficient speed. It's recommended for highway use but avoid prolonged reliance as the system may malfunction. Check electrical connectors monthly to prevent dust buildup. This feature is a great help during long-distance driving, allowing your feet to relax and reducing fatigue. Beginners should refer to the user manual to confirm operational details.
