What are the function buttons on the Cruze steering wheel?
2 Answers
Steering wheel left-side buttons include cruise control activation, deactivation, speed setting, and sport mode, while the right-side buttons primarily control the multimedia system and intelligent voice system. Here are detailed explanations of related functions: Cruise control buttons: Pressing RES resumes cruise control, while the cancel button deactivates it. Before activating cruise control, the cruising speed should be set using the SET key. The autonomous driving system mainly includes lane keeping assist and adaptive cruise control. The lane keeping system uses cameras to identify lane markings and provides alerts when deviating from the main lane, enhancing driver awareness. Steering wheel position adjustment: The lever-type switch on the left side of the steering wheel is the adjustment control. When the steering wheel is moved to the desired position, press the lever down firmly to lock it. Another type is the pneumatic switch, which allows direct position adjustment at the switch itself.
I've been driving the Cruze for a while now, and I particularly love the button layout on the steering wheel. The left side features a multimedia control area, including volume adjustment buttons, a mute key, and track switching buttons, which makes listening to music while driving super convenient without having to fiddle with the center console screen. The right side is dedicated to cruise assist functions, with a cruise on/off button, speed setting key, and follow distance adjustment key, making highway driving effortless and safe with just one press. The center of the steering wheel also integrates a voice assistant button, allowing for quick and accurate voice recognition to navigate or make calls with a single press. These buttons are compactly designed with clear feedback, enabling smooth operation without taking hands off the wheel, even when wearing gloves in the rain. Daily driving becomes less distracting, especially in city traffic where music volume can be adjusted on the fly without taking eyes off the road, and highway cruise control reduces fatigue, overall enhancing comfort and safety. It's really good value for money.
