How to use the cruise control on the 2017 Sagitar?

[DominicDella]

17 Sagitar cruise control usage is as follows: 1. The SET button is used to set the current speed. 2. RES is used to recall the memorized speed, and then adjust the speed with the +/- buttons, with each press increasing or decreasing the speed by 1 km/h. Precautions for using cruise control on the Volkswagen Sagitar: 1. Cruise control does not have automatic braking function, while adaptive cruise control is more intelligent. 2. Simply pressing the brake will deactivate the cruise control. The speed setting will not be cleared and can be resumed later. 3. It may be dangerous to use cruise control in complex road conditions or under adverse weather conditions. 4. On downhill slopes, the vehicle may accelerate. In such cases, you should brake to control the speed to prevent accidents caused by loss of control.

I've been driving my Sagitar for five or six years, and the cruise control is a lifesaver on the highway. First, drive over 40 km/h, then push the lever with the speedometer icon on the left side of the steering wheel downward to activate the system—a white cruise indicator will appear on the dashboard. Accelerate to your desired speed, say 80 km/h, then lightly pull the lever toward yourself to set it. It automatically fine-tunes speed on inclines and declines, freeing your foot. Pressing the accelerator to overtake doesn’t disrupt it, while braking or pushing the lever upward cancels cruise control. Avoid using this feature in fog or rain, and don’t rely on it at night with poor visibility. Prolonged use may cause drowsiness, so stretch your legs every 20 minutes.

As an experienced driver, I'd like to say that cruise control should be used under appropriate road conditions. On expressways or highways with light traffic, first press the ON button at the top of the left rear control stalk on the steering wheel when the speed exceeds 40 km/h to activate the system. Continue pressing the accelerator to reach your desired speed, then lightly press the SET button downward to lock the speed, at which point you can release the accelerator. To adjust the speed, simply hold the +/- buttons to increase or decrease speed. Remember to always keep your hands on the steering wheel during cruise control. Avoid using this function in urban areas with heavy traffic or on roads with many curves. If you notice the braking distance becoming longer, promptly check the sensors, as tire wear can also affect the system's judgment.

The cruise control operation is quite intuitive. With the ignition on, press the button at the top of the left steering wheel stalk to activate the function, and an indicator light will appear on the instrument panel. After accelerating with the throttle, pull the stalk toward you to lock the current speed. To fine-tune the speed, flick the stalk up or down. To temporarily cancel, simply press the brake, then press the RES button to resume the preset speed. Beginners are advised to practice a few times on open roads first. This system automatically adjusts throttle opening on slopes, but avoid using it in congested areas to prevent rear-end collisions. Also, remember to turn off the master switch after highway driving to save power.
