How to Use the Cruise Control on the Third-Generation Haval H6?

[OKinsley]

Haval H6 cruise control switch is located in the functional area on the right side of the steering wheel. CRUISE is for turning the cruise control on or off, and SET- is for setting the cruise speed. Press CRUISE to activate the cruise control function, and the dashboard will light up. Increase the vehicle speed to the desired cruising speed. Press the SET- button, and the cruise light on the dashboard will turn green, indicating that the cruise control is set. After releasing the accelerator, the vehicle will maintain the set speed. Press CRUISE to turn off the cruise control, and the cruise light will go out. When the function is not needed, the cruise control should be completely turned off.

When driving my 3rd-gen H6 on the highway, I basically can't do without cruise control – it saves so much leg effort! See that row of buttons on the right side of the steering wheel? First press the cruise button that looks like a speedometer with an arrow, and a white cruise icon will light up on the dashboard. Drive to your desired speed, say 80 km/h, then pull the SET lever downward – the icon turns green when speed is locked. To adjust speed, flip the lever up/down; each click changes speed by 1 km/h. Braking or pressing CANCEL pauses the system, while RES resumes the last set speed. Remember to keep a firm grip on the wheel – the system automatically brakes downhill to maintain speed, but during heavy rain it's safer to control manually, and always maintain proper following distance.

Once you get the hang of cruise control, it becomes incredibly convenient. I usually activate the system by pressing the cruise control switch on the right side of the steering wheel after starting the car, and there's an indicator light on the dashboard. After accelerating to the desired speed, press the SET- button to set it. For minor speed adjustments, a short push of the lever is all it takes. Important reminder: The most direct way to temporarily cancel is by hitting the brakes, but when resuming, always check the road ahead before pressing RES. Don’t get lazy and use cruise control in traffic jams—it doesn’t react fast enough. Another handy tip: A long push of the lever adjusts speed by 10 km/h increments, making it super satisfying for overtaking on highways.

New car owners might struggle to locate the buttons. On the right spoke of the steering wheel, look for the button with a tread pattern near the thumb position—that's the cruise control master switch. Once you've reached speed, press the SET button below to lock in your speed. Use the small toggle lever to adjust speed up or down; a light tap is all it takes. The dashboard will display your set speed in real time. I usually keep my foot lightly on the brake, ready to take over if needed. Note: The system may automatically disengage on sharp curves or steep slopes—don't panic. After activation, keep an eye on the green cruise icon on the dashboard; if it disappears, the system has disengaged.

Sharing my operating habits: Once I reach a stable speed on the highway, my right hand directly finds the cruise control button on the right side of the steering wheel and lightly presses it to activate (white light on). I continue accelerating to the desired speed, then briefly flick the SET button downward—at that moment, I can feel the throttle release, and the green light comes on indicating successful setting. When I want to cancel, I prefer pressing the button with an 'X' mark directly, which feels smoother than braking. Remember to turn it off during rainy days, as the system's response might lag on slippery roads. Don’t be surprised if you notice the speed dropping by itself—the system will aggressively apply throttle on uphill slopes. The H6’s tuning for this feature is quite smart.

The cruise control logic of the 3rd-gen H6 is very user-friendly. On the right-side function area of the steering wheel, first press the top cruise master button to activate the system. Upon reaching the target speed, gently pull the SET lever toward yourself to lock the speed. Subsequent controls are all at your fingertips: pull up to accelerate, pull down to decelerate, with 1 km/h precision per adjustment. When deceleration is needed, lightly tapping the brake is safest; briefly press the RES button to resume. Actual tests showed cruising at 80 km/h can save about 0.5 liters of fuel compared to manual throttle control. Note that the system doesn't detect stationary obstacles, so manual takeover is required when approaching construction zones.
