How to Use the Cruise Control in the Verano?
2 Answers
When the vehicle's speed reaches above 40 km/h, turn on the cruise control switch, then press the deceleration button to set the desired speed. The car will maintain the set speed, and pressing the deceleration button again will activate the cruise control function. To deactivate it, simply press the brake pedal, and it will automatically turn off. The Verano's cruise control system only works when the speed is above 40 km/h. Below are some precautions for using cruise control: 1. Do not use the speed control system on roads with heavy traffic or poor road conditions (such as slippery surfaces, loose gravel, or roads after heavy rain). 2. After the system is activated and the speed is above 40 km/h, do not shift the gear lever into neutral without pressing the clutch pedal, as this may cause the engine to over-rev and result in damage. 3. If the set cruising speed is too high compared to the current traffic conditions, do not resume the set speed.
After driving for so many years, I can say cruise control is a lifesaver for long-distance trips. It's quite simple to use in the Verano. First, wait until the speed reaches above 40 km/h, then press the cruise control button with the dial icon on the left side of the steering wheel—a white indicator light will illuminate on the instrument panel. Then, press SET- once to lock the current speed. To accelerate or decelerate, press RES+ or SET-, adjusting the speed by about 2 km/h per press. If you need to brake, stepping on the brake pedal will automatically deactivate it; just press RES+ to resume. However, remember not to use it on downhill slopes or during rain or snow to avoid unstable speed control. Always be ready to take over the steering wheel—this feature is not meant for autonomous driving.
