What does SET mean on the Volkswagen Lavida?
2 Answers
SET on the Lavida is a speed setting switch, which is a type of cruise control. 1. How to use the SET button: When you want to set the cruising speed, accelerate the car to the desired speed and press the SET button. When using cruise control, if you step on the brake, the cruise control will stop working. Press the RES button to restore the cruise control function, and the speed will return to the previously set standard. 2. Cruise control system: abbreviated as CCS, also known as cruise control device, speed control system, or autonomous driving system.
As a veteran driver who has owned a Lavida for over a decade, let me explain the SET button on the steering wheel: It's part of the cruise control system. Pressing it sets your current driving speed, allowing the car to automatically maintain that speed on highways, making long drives less tiring. Cruise control is great for long distances, but avoid using it on slippery roads to prevent skidding. If SET malfunctions, common issues are with the brake light switch or fuse – a simple check can usually fix it. I use this feature often; it's super handy. New drivers should refer to the manual for safe and efficient operation. In short, SET makes driving easier, but remember to maintain it regularly to ensure the electronic system works properly and prevent rust at contact points from affecting performance.
