What are the button functions of the 2021 Buick Excelle?
4 Answers
2021 Buick Excelle interior function buttons include the following: 1. Center console buttons: (1) Electronic Stability Control (ESC), enabled by default. It is not recommended to turn it off unless on slippery roads such as during rain or snow. (2) Auto Start-Stop, which temporarily shuts off the engine at traffic lights. The vehicle restarts when the driver's foot leaves the brake pedal. (3) Recirculation/Outside Air, where recirculation heats or cools the air inside the car and recirculates it, while outside air allows external air to enter the vehicle. (4) Dual-Zone Sync, when enabled, changing the driver's temperature setting will automatically adjust the other zones to the same temperature. Disabling this feature allows each zone to be set individually to meet the needs of passengers in different seats. 2. Door buttons: (1) Window lock button. (2) One-touch up/down window control switch. 3. Overhead buttons: (1) Sunroof horizontal opening. (2) Front passenger reading lights. (3) Sunroof tilt opening.
On the left side of the steering wheel are mainly the light controls. The rotary knob controls the headlight switch, pushing it outward activates the high beams, and the small lever on the lower right corner of the steering wheel is the windshield wiper. The button group on the right side is much more complex, with volume adjustment and track switching located near the thumb position. The cruise control button is hidden on the back of the left side of the steering wheel, requiring a feel to locate it. The air conditioning controls are below the center console, with the left knob adjusting temperature and the right one controlling fan speed. The square buttons in the middle are for defogging and air recirculation. Remember to press the AC button when turning on the air conditioning in summer. In front of the gear lever are the electronic parking brake and auto-hold buttons. The auto-hold feature is especially effortless when stopping at red lights by pressing the brake pedal firmly.
The feature I use most often in this car is the voice control button on the steering wheel. Holding it down activates the infotainment system, and saying 'Navigate to gas station' directly plans the route. Below the 8-inch touchscreen on the center console, there's a row of physical buttons—the home button returns to the main interface, and the knob can zoom in on the navigation map. Particularly noteworthy is the blue OnStar button above the rearview mirror; pressing it during a flat tire connects you to emergency assistance. There's also a USB port in the storage compartment for playing music from a flash drive, which is much more stable than Bluetooth. The window control buttons are next to the door handle, with a child lock for the rear windows. The trunk release is hidden at the lower left corner of the driver's seat—just feel for the small car icon button.
The button on top of the light lever controls dashboard brightness adjustment; remember to rotate it to the fog light symbol in rainy weather. The auto start-stop switch is located on the right side of the gear lever, and many complain it saves little fuel. Steering wheel heating is hidden in the left-spoke menu button—instantly warm in winter, truly a delight. The physical button on the right side of the center screen handles audio source switching; press the FM/AUX button to switch to media playback when a USB is inserted. Between the two front seats are cup holders, with a small slot in front designed specifically for car keys. Inside the armrest box are charging ports, and the 12V power outlet is most convenient for connecting a dash cam.
