How to Use Cruise Control in Volkswagen Golf?
2 Answers
Volkswagen Golf's cruise control is operated via buttons on the left side of the steering wheel. The specific operation method is as follows: The 01 indicator in the upper right corner is the cruise control switch. Press it once to activate cruise control, at which point the cruise control indicator light on the instrument panel will illuminate. The Golf's cruise control system includes standard cruise control and ACC adaptive cruise control. The standard version's cruise control is labeled CNL, meaning cancel; ACC adaptive cruise control denotes speed setting and speed limiting. If cruise control is canceled, you can press the RES button to resume the previously set cruise speed. The Volkswagen Golf has dimensions of 4259mm in length, 1799mm in width, and 1476mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2637mm, positioning it as a compact sedan.
The cruise control in the Golf is quite convenient, mainly involving a few steps: first, press the cruise control button when the speed reaches a certain value, usually an indicator light on the dashboard will illuminate to show that cruise control is ready. Then press the SET button to confirm the current speed as the cruise target value, or use the RES/+ button to increase the speed and the SET/- button to decrease it. When driving on highways, this feature is particularly effortless, but be mindful of changing road conditions and promptly apply the brakes or press the cancel button to pause, avoiding use during sharp turns or heavy traffic. When using this feature, I make it a habit to first check if the car is running smoothly; on downhill slopes, the car will automatically reduce speed to prevent overspeeding. If it feels like it's malfunctioning, simply restart the cruise control system. Overall, the Golf's design is very user-friendly, and after a few uses, it becomes familiar, making long-distance driving more comfortable and less fatiguing.
