2 Answers
To use the cruise control on a Ford Focus: Press and release the ON button to set the desired speed. Accelerate the vehicle to your preferred speed, then press and release the SET+ button and release the accelerator pedal. The indicator light will change color to confirm activation. Note that the cruise control will automatically disengage if the vehicle speed decreases by more than 16 km/h below the set speed when climbing hills. The Ford Focus is a compact car produced by Ford Motor Company. Taking the 2021 Focus Active Wagon EcoBoost 180 Automatic model as an example, its exterior dimensions are: length 4678mm, width 1841mm, height 1555mm, with a wheelbase of 2705mm, featuring a crossover wagon body style.
I've had a Focus for several years, and using cruise control on long drives makes it much easier. First, ensure the car is traveling at least 40 km/h, then locate the button labeled ON or SET on the steering wheel. Press ON to activate the system, then accelerate to your desired speed, such as 70 km/h, and press SET to save it. To increase speed, press the + button; to decrease, press the - button. You can immediately cancel cruise control by pressing the brake or the CANCEL button to avoid accidents. To resume the previous speed after cancellation, press the RES button. Remember to use it on flat, open roads and avoid activating it during rainy, foggy, or congested conditions to prevent delayed system response. Regularly check if the buttons are functioning smoothly and clean the gaps in the steering wheel to prevent dust from interfering with the controls. Following these steps makes long drives much more relaxing.
