How to Use the Cruise Control on Roewe i5?
2 Answers
Slide switch A to the ON position to activate the speed control system. After the system is activated, when the vehicle reaches the desired speed, press button B (SET) once to maintain the vehicle at that speed. Pressing the SET button decreases the speed by 1.5 km/h; holding the button will cause the vehicle to continue decelerating. Without pressing the accelerator pedal, slide switch A to the RES position to increase the set cruising speed.
As a long-time driver of the Roewe i5, I frequently use cruise control on highways to save energy. The operation is straightforward: first, start the car and reach a stable speed, such as above 60 km/h, then gently press the cruise control button on the steering wheel to activate the function, followed by pressing the SET button to lock the current speed as the target. To adjust the speed, use the plus key to accelerate or the minus key to decelerate, with each press adjusting by approximately 2-5 km/h, making it easy to control throttle smoothly. To cancel cruise control, simply tap the brake or press the cancel button on the steering wheel, and the system will deactivate immediately. I find it particularly fuel-efficient and stress-relieving during long-distance driving, but I only use it on straight roads with good conditions, avoiding urban traffic or curves to prevent distraction. Once you get used to it, it automatically maintains a constant speed without constantly pressing the accelerator, making the journey more comfortable and safer. Regularly check the vehicle manual for updates on specific details to prevent any potential malfunctions.
