Operating cruise control is actually quite simple. I've been driving for seven or eight years and use it proficiently. First, ensure the vehicle is on a straight highway with a speed exceeding 40 km/h. Then press the cruise switch button on the steering wheel to activate the system—the indicator light will show it's ready. Next, press the SET button to lock in the current speed, and the car will automatically maintain the throttle without needing further pedal input. To adjust speed, press the '+' to accelerate or '-' to decelerate. To temporarily cancel, lightly tap the brake pedal; to fully deactivate, press the CANCEL button. Avoid using it in rainy conditions or heavy traffic due to high risks. It's great for saving effort on long highway drives, but always stay attentive and avoid distractions. When first starting out, practice a few times in low-traffic areas to familiarize yourself with the button placements, as designs vary significantly between cars. Safety is paramount—don’t rely solely on the system; stay engaged in driving. Once you get used to it, it’s really convenient and fuel-efficient.
