How to use cruise control in the Chevrolet Blazer: 1. Press the cancel button to deactivate cruise control, and then press the RES button to resume cruising; 2. The SET button is used to set the cruising speed. Before activating cruise control, the driver should set the desired speed using this button; 3. The plus and minus buttons control the cruise control speed, with the upper button for acceleration and the lower one for deceleration. The Chevrolet Blazer features a very sporty and stylish body design, with a front end that adopts Chevrolet's family design language, featuring a gunmetal gray honeycomb grille paired with a black emblem. The Chevrolet Blazer measures 4999mm in length, 1953mm in width, and 1736mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2863mm. Its powertrain is equipped with an LSY 2.0T inline four-cylinder turbocharged engine, featuring intelligent cylinder deactivation technology that enables a two-cylinder economy mode during high-speed driving.

I often drive long distances, and the Chevrolet Blazer's cruise control is quite effortless to use. After reaching a stable speed on the highway, first press the button with the speedometer icon on the left side of the steering wheel to activate the system. At this point, a white cruise icon will appear on the dashboard. Accelerate to your desired speed, say 100km/h, using the throttle, then press the small button labeled 'SET' to lock in the current speed. The icon turns green to indicate activation. For minor speed adjustments, use the '+RES' or '−SET' buttons, which change the speed by 1.6km/h per press. The cruise control will deactivate if you hit the brakes, press the cancel button, or turn off the engine. Avoid using it during heavy rain, as it can be risky on slippery roads.

Just taught my mother-in-law how to use the Trailblazer's cruise control last week. It's actually just five simple steps: 1. Press the cruise control button on the left side of the steering wheel after exceeding 40km/h; 2. Accelerate to the desired speed and press the SET button to lock it in; 3. Release the accelerator to let the system take over; 4. Use your right thumb to press '+' or '−' to adjust speed anytime; 5. Gently tap the brake to deactivate when encountering heavy traffic. It's most useful for saving leg effort on highways, but don't fully rely on the system – remember to cancel it before tunnels, as the system won't automatically slow down in sudden 60km/h zones. Pay attention to the dashboard icon colors: green means active, white indicates standby mode.

Veteran driver shares three tips: First, anticipate road conditions in advance and manually slow down when seeing speed cameras; second, try adaptive cruise control (available only in high-end models) for more relaxed automatic following; third, switch to manual gear combined with cruise control during continuous downhill driving to avoid brake overheating. Once accustomed, even cruising at 60 km/h on urban expressways becomes effortless, but remember to turn off the function during heavy rain or fog when road markings are unclear, as the system may malfunction. Among the button group on the left side of the steering wheel, the cancel button with an X symbol provides a smoother exit than braking to deactivate.
