How to Use Cruise Control in a Wrangler?
2 Answers
To use cruise control in a Wrangler, turn on the cruise control switch, accelerate the vehicle to over 40 km/h, and then set the desired cruising speed. The Wrangler is a rugged off-road vehicle from Jeep, equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine that delivers a maximum horsepower of 266 PS, a maximum torque of 400 Nm, and a maximum power of 195 kW. It is paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission. The Wrangler's body dimensions are: length 4334 mm, width 1894 mm, height 1839 mm, with a wheelbase of 2459 mm, a minimum ground clearance of 251 mm, and a curb weight of 1843 kg.
When I drive my Wrangler on the highway, I often use cruise control, and the method is quite simple. First, accelerate to your desired speed, such as 70 km/h or 55 mph, then locate the control button on the right side of the steering wheel and press it to activate the system. An indicator light will illuminate on the dashboard. Next, press the SET button to lock in the current speed. While driving, you can use the + and - buttons to fine-tune the speed. To cancel, lightly tap the brake or press the OFF button. It’s great for saving effort during long trips and can even help with fuel efficiency, but avoid using it in city driving, heavy traffic, or during rain or snow to prevent accidents. I recommend beginners first familiarize themselves with the button locations and keep their hands on the wheel for safety, as driver-assist features aren’t foolproof.
