How to Use the Cruise Control on the LaCrosse?

How to use the cruise control on the LaCrosse: 1. Activate the cruise control system by sliding the switch to the ON position to turn on the cruise control; 2. Once set, press the SET button when reaching the desired speed to maintain continuous driving at that speed; 3. After setting the cruising speed, you can still accelerate using the accelerator pedal as usual. Upon releasing the pedal, the system will restore the speed to the preset cruising speed. The LaCrosse is a model under Shanghai GM Buick, with body dimensions of 5005mm in length, 1858mm in width, and 1500mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2837mm. In terms of appearance, the LaCrosse boasts a more grand and luxurious design, featuring a large three-dimensional shield emblem at the front, a wide chrome-plated front grille, and prominent cannon-shaped taillights.
I used to drive a Buick LaCrosse often and found its cruise control simple and practical to operate. First, accelerate to your desired speed on the road, say 80 km/h on the highway. Then locate the cruise button on the steering wheel—usually marked with a small steering wheel icon—and press it to activate the system. Next, press the ‘SET’ button to lock in the current speed. After that, to accelerate, press the ‘RES+’ button, and to decelerate, press the ‘-’ button. If you need to temporarily cancel it, such as when encountering traffic, simply hit the brakes. Once past that section, press ‘RES’ to resume the previous speed. I recommend using it on flat, straight roads or highways to avoid speed instability on slopes; also, avoid trying it in rainy or foggy conditions, as it’s easy to skid and cause an accident. Regularly check if the buttons are responsive, and during maintenance, glance at the manual—the suggested minimum speed is usually above 40 km/h. Using it can save some fuel and relax your legs, but never get distracted—always keep your eyes on the road.
