How to use cruise control in RAV4?
2 Answers
RAV4 cruise control usage method: 1. Press the power button to turn on the cruise control system, at this time the cruise control indicator light on the dashboard will illuminate; 2. Increase the vehicle speed to your desired level, then press the SET button, you can now release your right foot from the accelerator pedal as the speed will be maintained at the current level; 3. If you need to make minor adjustments to the speed, you can use the RES and SET- buttons for operation. The RAV4's body dimensions are 4265mm in length, 1785mm in width, and 1705mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2660mm. The vehicle's air intake and front/rear bumpers emphasize its off-road feel, while the enlarged headlights and Toyota emblem make it more eye-catching. Thanks to the wheelbase being extended by 80mm and increased interior height and width, the cabin offers spacious and comfortable seating.
I often use the cruise control when driving my RAV4, especially on highways to save energy. The operation is simple: first accelerate to the desired speed, for example, after exceeding 40 km/h, press and hold the cruise activation button on the right side of the steering wheel, and the system activates. Then, press the nearby SET button to set the current speed. While driving, to accelerate, push the +/- lever upward, and to decelerate, pull it downward—very convenient. To cancel, lightly tap the brake or press the cancel button. Be careful not to use it in urban areas or complex road conditions; it’s safe only on straight highways. I love this feature—it eliminates frequent throttle adjustments on long trips, enhancing comfort. It also saves fuel, the car responds quickly, and the button placement is well-designed, just a reach away.
