Where is the cruise control located on the Odyssey?
2 Answers
The cruise control on the Odyssey is located on the right side of the steering wheel. Press the cruise control button integrated on the right side of the steering wheel, then set the desired speed. Note that the cruise control can only be activated when the speed reaches 40 km/h or above. Below is more information about the Odyssey's cruise control: 1. As an MPV in this class, both models of the Honda Odyssey come with basic cruise control features. The cruise control system, abbreviated as CCS, is also known as a speed control device, speed control system, or autonomous driving system. 2. Cruise control is used to maintain a constant speed for the vehicle. Once the car is set to cruise mode, the engine's fuel supply is controlled by the computer, which continuously adjusts the fuel supply based on road conditions and the vehicle's driving resistance to maintain the set speed without the need to operate the accelerator.
I often drive a Honda Odyssey, and its cruise control is located on the right side of the steering wheel, where you'll find a small cluster of control buttons, including the ON/OFF switch, SET button, and RES button. When you're on the highway or a flat road, first press ON to activate the system, then press SET to lock in the current speed once it stabilizes. RES can be used to resume previous settings, and the CANCEL button temporarily deactivates cruise control. The placement is ergonomic and doesn't interfere with normal steering wheel grip. Remember to check that your speed is within legal limits before use—typically, it only works above 40km/h. Across different model years of the Odyssey, button positions remain largely similar, though newer versions may integrate them into the multifunction steering wheel. While cruise control is convenient, avoid using it in heavy traffic or on winding roads to prevent distraction. It helps reduce foot fatigue during long drives, but regularly inspect the steering wheel buttons for wear or stickiness to ensure they function properly and maintain safety.
