3 Answers
Press the cruise control activation button to turn on the cruise control system. Accelerate to the desired speed using the accelerator pedal. Briefly push the SET− button on the steering wheel downward. The set speed will briefly appear on the instrument panel, and you can then lift your foot off the accelerator pedal. Introduction to the New Buick LaCrosse: The body dimensions are 5026mm in length, 1866mm in width, and 1462mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2905mm. The new Buick LaCrosse features a family-style design with a brand-new design concept. The front of the car adopts a hexagonal grille, which is also decorated with chrome trim.
I find the cruise control on the new LaCrosse quite convenient, having used it several times on the highway. The simple steps are: first, get the car up to speed, preferably over 40 km/h; then press the CRUISE button on the right side of the steering wheel to activate it; next, press the SET button to confirm the current speed. At this point, you can relax your foot off the accelerator, and the car will maintain the speed automatically. To increase speed, press the RES+ button, and to decrease speed, press the SET- button. If you need to brake or cancel midway, press CANCEL to exit. I think it works best on open highways—saving fuel and reducing fatigue—but avoid using it in traffic jams or on winding roads, and always stay focused on steering. Overall, the cruise control on the new LaCrosse is designed with user-friendliness in mind, with intuitively placed buttons that make it easy for beginners to get the hang of after a couple of tries, making it ideal for long trips.
I just bought a new LaCrosse and initially didn't know how to use the cruise control. I figured it out after asking a friend. The operation is quite straightforward: first accelerate the car to your desired speed, say around 60 mph on the highway; then locate the CRUISE CONTROL button on the right side of the steering wheel, press it to turn on the indicator light; press the SET button to lock in the speed; after that, you don't need to worry about the accelerator, it will maintain a steady speed. To adjust the speed, use the RESUME+/SET- buttons to fine-tune by a few kilometers. To cancel, press the CANCEL button or lightly tap the brake—both will disengage the system. As a beginner, I find it quite labor-saving, especially for long highway drives to avoid foot fatigue, but always use it on safe stretches, not on curves or in heavy traffic. Remember to have the system's buttons checked during annual maintenance to prevent aging issues. I think new features are easy to learn—the key is practice makes perfect.
