How to Use Cruise Control in the 10th Generation Accord Elite Edition?
3 Answers
To activate cruise control in the 10th Generation Accord, follow these steps: 1. Press the CRUISE button located at the top right of the steering wheel. This will put the cruise control system into standby mode. 2. Accelerate the vehicle to your desired speed. 3. To cancel cruise control during operation, either press the brake pedal or press the CANCEL button. 4. During cruise control, pressing or holding the RES button will increase speed. Alternatively, you can accelerate to your desired speed by pressing the accelerator pedal and then pressing RES to set the new speed. 5. Pressing or holding the SET button during cruise control will decrease speed.
I often drive on highways, and the cruise control on the Accord Elite is very simple to use: first, press the main cruise button on the right side of the steering wheel, and the system activates when the icon lights up. Once you reach a speed above 40 km/h, say 80 km/h, press the SET/– button to set the current speed, and the car will maintain it automatically. To accelerate, press the RES/+ button; to decelerate, press the SET/– button. You can cancel it by braking or pressing the CANCEL button, and then press RES/+ to resume the set speed. Using it makes long trips less tiring, saves fuel, and reduces leg fatigue—but avoid using it in congested city traffic. Also, turn it off during heavy rain or on winding roads, always stay alert for safe driving, and keep your hands close to the wheel. Remember to regularly check button responsiveness and system status to ensure reliability. Beginners should practice a few times to get the hang of it.
As an Accord owner for half a year, the cruise control is convenient to operate: press the cruise switch to activate after starting, then hit the highway after the icon appears, reach the desired speed like 60 km/h and press the SET button to lock the speed for automatic driving. The speed adjustment with +/- buttons is quick, and braking stops the function. It makes driving much easier, especially on long trips—less fatigue and fuel consumption, but avoid using it on slippery roads or curves to stay alert and prevent distraction. I always test the settings on open roads before regular use, and it's become a daily habit after getting used to it.
