How to Use the Cruise Control on the Grand Cherokee?
2 Answers
Press the cruise control switch located on the right-hand side switch group of the steering wheel. Once the speed meets the required conditions, press the set button to maintain the current speed. The plus and minus buttons next to it are for acceleration and deceleration. Below is an introduction to cruise control: 1. In principle, cruise control should be used on highways or fully enclosed roads. On non-enclosed roads, complex road conditions are not conducive to traffic safety. On national highways, some tractors lack sufficient power and may suddenly emerge from small intersections, posing a serious threat to vehicles on the highway. Under cruise control, drivers may be caught off guard. Repeated braking also makes it difficult to maintain a stable cruise control state, defeating the purpose of cruise control. 2. It is prohibited to use cruise control in rainy or snowy conditions. 3. It should also be disabled on winding mountain roads or roads with too many curves. Normally, when navigating curves, appropriate acceleration is needed to provide greater steering force. Under cruise control, the vehicle automatically maintains a constant speed, with the throttle controlled by the onboard computer, which can pose dangers when driving on curves. Under such conditions, drivers should appropriately control the vehicle's speed.
Using the cruise control on the Grand Cherokee is actually quite simple. I often use it on long-distance highways, and it's very convenient. First, get on the road and accelerate to your desired speed, whether it's 80km/h or 100km/h. Then, locate the button on the steering wheel with the small car icon—press it to activate cruise control. If you need to fine-tune the speed, use the adjacent + or - buttons. If you hit the brakes or press the cancel button, cruise control will deactivate. On the Grand Cherokee, the system responds quickly and maintains stability well, helping you save fuel and drive more comfortably. Avoid using it in crowded urban areas due to higher risks. It's recommended to regularly check if the cruise control buttons are responsive to prevent malfunctions. Safety first—it's a great feature to use!
