What does 'set' mean on a Volkswagen car?
2 Answers
Volkswagen car's 'set' is a speed setting switch that can store the current speed and automatically maintain this speed. Related introductions are as follows: 1. When speed control is not needed: Simply step on the brake pedal, and the speed setting function will immediately stop, but the speed information continues to exist. 2. Resume speed control: Press the resume switch (Resume) to restore the previously stored speed, and the car can drive at this speed again. 3. Volkswagen blue light 'set' button: It means tire pressure monitoring reset. When a yellow exclamation mark appears on the dashboard (i.e., the tire pressure warning light), it indicates that the vehicle's tire pressure has an issue.
When I drive my Volkswagen, I often use the 'set' button on the steering wheel to control cruise control on the highway. Specifically, when you accelerate the car to your desired speed, say 100 kilometers per hour, and press 'set', the car will automatically maintain that speed, so you don't have to keep pressing the accelerator. This feature is particularly effortless, especially on long trips, as it prevents fatigue in your right foot. However, it's important to note that not all road conditions are suitable for it, such as crowded highways or sharp curves, where manual control is preferable. I've also found that it works in combination with other buttons, like 'resume', which restores the previously set speed—if you temporarily hit the brakes, 'resume' can restart the cruise control. Remember to regularly check if the system is functioning properly to avoid accidents, as safety always comes first. Overall, it feels simple, efficient, and very user-friendly—that's my practical experience with it.
