Press the set button for the first time to set the cruise speed. After cruise control is activated, pressing set will decrease the set cruise speed, while stepping on the accelerator only increases speed. The vehicle speed will automatically decrease to the set cruise speed and maintain it automatically.

I just bought a Buick Excelle, and the cruise control is quite intuitive to operate. First, start the car and drive onto the highway, reaching a speed of around 40 km/h. There's a cruise switch on the steering wheel—press the ON button to activate the function. Once the speed stabilizes, press the SET button to lock the current speed. To adjust the speed, use the RESUME button to increase or the SET button to decrease. To cancel, lightly tap the brake or press the cancel button. To resume, simply press RESUME to return to the set speed. At first, I was a bit nervous about making mistakes, but after trying it twice, it became very smooth. This feature is a real lifesaver on long highway drives, as it eliminates the need to constantly press the accelerator. However, a reminder for beginners: avoid using it in urban areas or heavy traffic to prevent rear-end collisions. Safety comes first—it's best to practice on an open road first.

I'm particularly interested in automotive technology. The Buick Excelle's cruise control system maintains constant speed by electronically regulating engine fuel supply via a control module. The steering wheel has dedicated buttons: ON activates the system, SET establishes/maintains speed, RES increases speed or resumes, CANCEL deactivates. Minimum operating speed is typically above 30 km/h. Through testing, I found this system automatically adjusts throttle opening to maintain stability, reducing highway fuel consumption by approximately 10%. However, note that sensor failures may cause system malfunction - always check dashboard warning lights. Avoid usage during rain/snow to prevent loss of control, and routinely inspect buttons for smooth operation during maintenance.

What are the differences between Verna and Accent?

Verna is the successor model to the Accent, positioned higher in the market. The two models differ in exterior design, interior, body dimensions, and powertrain. More details are as follows: 1. Exterior: As a next-generation model, Verna boasts impressive aesthetics with Hyundai's signature large grille design that enhances its premium and refined look. The body lines are harmonious, and the slightly raised trunk design adds a coupe-like flair. In contrast, the Accent features smoother body lines, especially at the rear, giving it a fuller and rounder appearance that suits the family car vibe. 2. Interior: The interiors of both Verna and Accent are less striking than their exteriors, adopting a simple and natural style. Although material choices are limited by pricing, the craftsmanship remains respectable without compromising quality due to cost.

What is the Audi A6L 48V Mild Hybrid?

Here is a detailed explanation of the 48V mild hybrid system: 1. 48V Mild Hybrid System: The "48V Mild Hybrid" is also known as MHEV (Mild Hybrid Electric Vehicle). It upgrades the traditional 12V circuit voltage to 48V and replaces the conventional starter and alternator with a BSG (Belt-Driven Starter Generator) and a 48V/12V bidirectional DC/DC converter. 2. Basic Principle of the 48V Mild Hybrid System: In terms of mechanical definition, the 48V mild hybrid system is not classified as a new energy vehicle because it cannot independently provide electric power for pure electric driving. During daily use, the electric energy is only used to assist in vehicle propulsion. Building upon the original 12V electrical system of conventional vehicles, the voltage is increased to 48V, and components such as electric motors and battery packs are added to enable auxiliary vehicle propulsion and energy storage/recovery functions.

Is It Really Not Advisable to Buy a Flood-Damaged Car?

Not advisable. Here are the relevant details: 1. High Costs: After being submerged in water and exposed to sunlight for a period of time, these cars may appear fine on the surface, but the internal components could be damaged, with severe cases even leading to malfunctions. Additionally, the engine may suffer damage from water ingress, which is difficult to repair and often comes with a hefty price tag even if repairable. 2. Safety Hazards: These cars are often released into the market without thorough repairs, posing significant safety risks. If you consult used car dealers, they are likely to be evasive, downplay the issues, or even outright deceive consumers. These problems are like ticking time bombs, with issues potentially arising at any moment. 3. Dirty Interior: After being soaked in water, the car's seats, whether leather or fabric, are difficult to clean thoroughly. Even after sun exposure, a musty odor tends to linger in the car, making it uncomfortable to sit in for extended periods.

What is the function of the high-mounted stop lamp in a car?

The high-mounted stop lamp serves to alert the vehicles behind, thereby helping to prevent traffic accidents. Here is an introduction to the high-mounted stop lamp: 1. The high-mounted stop lamp refers to a brake light positioned higher, usually above the rear window, allowing the following vehicle to better see the braking action of the car ahead and react appropriately. 2. Nowadays, many cars come with a high-mounted stop lamp as standard equipment, while some do not. In such cases, you can install one yourself to enhance the vehicle's active safety and reduce the likelihood of accidents. 3. The high-mounted stop lamp is generally installed on the upper part of the rear of the car, making it easier for vehicles behind to notice when the car ahead is braking, thereby helping to prevent rear-end collisions. 4. Typically, cars have two brake lights installed at the two ends of the rear, one on the left and one on the right. Therefore, the high-mounted stop lamp is also called the third brake light, high-mounted brake light, or third stop lamp.

Can ETC be uninstalled after installation?

ETC can be uninstalled after installation. However, removing the ETC device by yourself will render it invalid because the ETC device has an anti-tamper function. There is a small switch on the back of the ETC electronic tag, which automatically turns off once the device is detached from the windshield. Therefore, you must take the vehicle's registration certificate to the ETC service provider for reactivation. ETC Billing Principle: Highways have one or more ETC lanes. The onboard electronic tag installed on the vehicle's windshield communicates with the microwave antenna in the ETC lane via dedicated short-range microwave communication. Using computer networking technology, the system performs backend settlement with banks, allowing vehicles to pass through toll stations without stopping to pay road and bridge fees. All of this operates on the principle of "pass first, deduct later." Benefits of Installing ETC: Time-saving: Eliminates the hassle of waiting in queues; Green and eco-friendly: Promotes low-carbon travel by reducing noise and exhaust emissions since vehicles do not need to stop at toll stations; Reduced wear and tear: Saves costs by minimizing frequent starts and brakes, thereby lowering vehicle wear and fuel consumption; Improved efficiency: Theoretically, ETC lanes can increase traffic throughput by 2-3 times, making traditional ETC systems more advanced, faster, and high-tech. Compared to license plate payment, ETC technology is more mature and advantageous. More Policy Support: The State Council explicitly stated in the "13th Five-Year Plan for the Development of a Modern Comprehensive Transportation System" that "by 2020, intercity transportation cards should be widely interoperable in key urban clusters, and the proportion of vehicles equipped with ETC should significantly increase." It also set a target in the "13th Five-Year" comprehensive transportation development indicators: "By 2020, the ETC usage rate for passenger vehicles should reach 50%." More Future Possibilities: In addition to continuously improving the convenience of ETC installation and usage rates for passenger vehicles, future efforts will promote ETC adoption for trucks and explore deeper integration of ETC systems with smart transportation developments such as vehicle-to-vehicle communication and vehicle-to-infrastructure coordination. This will provide car owners with comprehensive travel services, meaning more application scenarios will support ETC usage.
