How to Use the Cruise Control in Škoda?
2 Answers
Škoda cruise control usage is as follows: 1. The switch is located on the turn signal lever. Turn switch A to the "on" position; after activation, the corresponding icon will illuminate on the instrument display. When the vehicle reaches the desired speed, press "set" and release the button to set the corresponding speed. 2. When using Škoda's cruise control system, to accelerate, press the upper end "RES+" of B to increase speed. To decelerate, press the lower end "SET-" of B to reduce speed. 3. There are two methods to cancel Škoda's cruise control: one is the cancel button on the switch lever, and the other is automatic cancellation by applying the brakes.
As a frequent Skoda driver, I find the cruise control particularly handy on highways. There's a CRUISE button on the left side of the steering wheel—press it, reach your desired speed (say, 100km/h), then hit SET to lock the speed, and the car maintains a steady pace. Adjust speed later with +/- buttons, or cancel cruise by lightly braking or pressing CANCEL. After getting used to it on long trips, it eases leg fatigue and helps focus on the road, though avoid using it in rain or snow. Some Skoda models like the Octavia even feature adaptive cruise control, which automatically adjusts speed if the car ahead slows down, making driving even more effortless. Mastering these functions makes highway driving fuel-efficient and comfortable.
