How to Use Full-Speed Adaptive Cruise Control?
2 Answers
Full-speed adaptive cruise control (ACC) is used as follows: 1. ACC Activation/Deactivation: Press the ACC switch button to turn on the adaptive cruise control system. 2. Set Following Distance: Press the decrease or increase following distance button to reduce or increase the distance between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead. 3. Speed Up: If the cruise control system is already enabled, briefly roll the button toward RES and then release it to increase speed. Below is more information about full-speed adaptive cruise control: 1. Full-speed adaptive cruise control allows the vehicle to be activated from a standstill, maintain a safe following distance, and even follow the vehicle ahead to stop and start. 2. Full-speed adaptive cruise control provides adaptive cruise functionality across the entire speed range.
I often use the full-speed adaptive cruise control on the highway. I press the cruise button on the steering wheel, then the Set button to lock in the current speed, and use the adjacent buttons to adjust the following distance—usually setting it to medium or far. Once activated, the car automatically controls the throttle and brakes. If the car ahead slows down, my car decelerates accordingly, and if it speeds up, my car accelerates until reaching the preset speed. It’s especially handy in traffic jams, eliminating the need for frequent throttle and brake inputs as the car handles stop-and-go traffic on its own, saving a lot of effort. However, I keep my foot near the brake pedal, ready to take over at any moment in case a car suddenly cuts in or the system fails to respond. This feature significantly reduces fatigue during long highway drives, but in complex urban traffic, manual driving is still safer.
