Honda CRUISE indicates that the cruise control is currently active, allowing the driver to maintain a fixed speed without pressing the accelerator pedal. To activate Honda's cruise control, press the cruise control switch on the steering wheel, and the cruise control system indicator will appear on the instrument cluster. Press the accelerator pedal until the vehicle reaches the desired speed (30 km/h). Press the "SET" side of the "RES/SET (Resume/Set)" switch on the steering wheel and release it, then you can release the accelerator pedal. To temporarily deactivate the system, press the brake pedal or move the cruise control switch to the "OFF" position. To resume the set cruising speed, release the brake or clutch pedal and press the resume function button again. The cruise control system is not suitable for all situations. In principle, cruise control should be used on highways or fully enclosed roads, as complex road conditions on non-enclosed roads can compromise traffic safety. When using the cruise control system, always set an appropriate speed based on road limits, traffic flow, road conditions, and other factors. Avoid using cruise control when driving on slopes, slippery roads, or winding roads to prevent safety incidents.

What does 'range' mean on a car dashboard?

The 'range' on a car dashboard displays the maximum distance the vehicle can travel with the remaining fuel. Here are specific details about the dashboard range: 1. Calculation method: The dashboard range shows the estimated maximum travel distance, which is calculated based on average fuel consumption. The actual travel distance may differ from the displayed distance. When only a small amount of fuel is added to the tank, the display may not update. Turn off the engine switch when adding fuel. If the engine switch is not turned off while adding fuel, the display may not update. 2. Function of the range value: The range value serves as a reference for understanding the vehicle's fuel consumption. However, the range indicator can sometimes malfunction. If the range warning light stays on despite having sufficient fuel in the tank, it indicates a range malfunction, usually caused by a faulty fuel level sensor. The purpose of the range indicator is to remind the owner to perform timely vehicle maintenance and facilitate the assessment of the vehicle's condition.

What does the L gear mean?

L gear stands for LOW speed. In this mode, the gear is restricted and used for climbing or descending slopes, keeping the vehicle speed at the lowest gear and utilizing engine braking. For automatic transmission vehicles, simply press the brake, shift into the desired gear, release the brake, and press the accelerator to start. Below are the correct ways to use the L gear: Uphill: Vehicles typically require greater power when climbing slopes. After shifting into L gear, the car will be restricted to low speed and will not frequently shift gears. The high torque generated by the engine provides sufficient power to climb steep slopes. Downhill: After shifting into L gear, the car will be restricted to low speed, allowing it to fully utilize the transmission's reverse braking to control speed, i.e., using engine power for braking. This helps drivers avoid prolonged braking, which could overheat the brake pads and reduce braking efficiency. Congested roads: When driving in congested areas with frequent stops and starts, shifting into L gear can prevent the automatic transmission from frequently shifting, thereby avoiding jerky movements.

What does the SET button in a car mean?

The SET button in a car refers to the speed adjustment switch, which is the speed regulation indicator for cruise control. Below are the methods to activate and use cruise control: 1. Activating cruise control: First, press the CRUISE button to activate the cruise module. When the dashboard displays CRUISE, the vehicle must reach a speed of 40 km/h or above to enable cruise control. After reaching 40 km/h, press the SET button to activate cruise control. 2. Speed adjustment: Speed can be increased or decreased using the "+" and "-" buttons. Pushing the lever upward increases the speed, while pushing it downward decreases the speed. Holding the lever in position will rapidly increase or decrease the speed. 3. Canceling cruise control: Pressing the accelerator or pushing the lever downward will temporarily cancel the function. Releasing the accelerator or pushing the lever inward will automatically restore the function. The CANCEL button is used to cancel cruise control.

Can a Keyless Entry Car Key Lock the Car When Inside?

A keyless entry car key cannot lock the car when it is inside the vehicle. Below are detailed introductions to the functions of car keys: 1. Close windows after turning off the engine: Press and hold the lock button on the remote key to close the windows. This feature may also be available on regular family cars. 2. Locate the car in a parking lot: Some car keys have a dedicated car-finding button. For certain vehicles, pressing the lock button twice will trigger a very loud horn sound to indicate the car's location, making it easier to find the car quickly in crowded areas. 3. Automatically open the trunk: Many car models have a trunk-opening button on the remote key. Press and hold the trunk unlock button to automatically open the trunk. 4. Keyless entry: You need to carry the car key. When the key is near the car, it automatically matches the car's decoder. Press the unlock button on the car door handle to unlock the car.

How to Disable the Alarm When Starting the Car with a Spare Key?

When starting the car with a spare key, quickly power on the vehicle after opening the door to disable the alarm. Below are specific details about car alarms: 1. Reason for alarm activation with a spare key: If the car was originally locked using the remote key, using a mechanical key (whether the primary or spare key) to open the door will be recognized by the car's computer as a forced intrusion, triggering the alarm. The spare key contains an engine decoding chip, allowing the vehicle to be started at any time. 2. Car alarm: This is an alarm device installed in the vehicle. When the car is struck, impacted, or moved, the sensor sends a signal to the controller indicating the intensity of the vibration. The system can then make the controller emit a warning sound or trigger a full alarm based on the vibration intensity, deterring thieves and alerting the owner. 3. Functions of a car alarm: It is a multifunctional product. In addition to its anti-theft alarm function, it can also remotely open the trunk, lock/unlock doors, open/close windows, and start the engine.

When is the best time to use S gear?

S gear is best used when overtaking or climbing hills, representing the sports mode of the car. Below is a detailed introduction to car driving modes: 1. Eco Mode: In this mode, the car's fuel injection volume and transmission control module are managed by the computer, which adjusts to the most fuel-efficient driving method. This mode has the lowest fuel consumption but also the least power. Additionally, in this mode, due to the transmission control module being managed by the computer, the throttle pedal response is less sensitive, and the engine response is not as quick. 2. Comfort Mode: Also known as standard mode, it balances power and fuel efficiency. In this mode, power output and air conditioning settings are optimized for energy saving, making it most suitable for everyday driving. 3. Sports Mode: This mode is generally used in road conditions requiring higher power demands. After switching to this mode, the battery's energy output increases significantly in a short time, and the traction and stability control systems reduce their intervention in driving operations. This results in quicker car response and more noticeable steering operations. This mode has the highest fuel consumption and the most powerful performance. 4. Snow Mode: This mode primarily works by suppressing the car's torque force to reduce wheel slippage and spinning when driving on snow.
