The cruise control on the Audi A6 is located below the turn signal on the lower left side of the steering wheel. Below is relevant information about cruise control: 1. 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 driving resistance to keep the vehicle at the set speed without the need to operate the accelerator. Cruise control systems have become standard equipment in mid-to-high-end sedans. Generally, cruise control is automatically deactivated when the brake pedal or clutch is pressed. 2. There is a button on the control lever; cruise control can be activated at speeds above 40 km/h. It includes speed adjustment keys—left for acceleration and right for deceleration. Using the brake during cruise control automatically ends the cruise mode. This feature reduces driver fatigue during long highway drives by eliminating the need to control the accelerator pedal, while also minimizing unnecessary speed variations and saving fuel.

I've been driving an Audi A6 for three years, and the cruise control switch is on the left-hand stalk of the steering wheel. You can see it by turning your head slightly—there's a small button at the top of the stalk labeled 'CRUISE.' Normally, you can operate it with your left index finger: pull down to activate cruise control, push up to increase speed, and pull inward to decrease speed. Remember, after activation, you need to see the green indicator on the dashboard to confirm it's engaged. Once on the highway, I accidentally bumped the adjacent wiper stalk, causing the cruise control to suddenly cancel, which gave me a scare. Beginners should distinguish between these two stalks—the right wiper stalk is thicker, while the left cruise stalk is slimmer and longer.

Last time I helped an old classmate find the cruise control switch on his Audi A6, I discovered it's conveniently located at the tip of the left-hand stalk on the steering wheel. This design is quite handy as you don't need to look down for physical buttons while driving. When using it, remember these steps: first press the power button on the steering wheel to activate the system, then when speed exceeds 30 km/h, gently push the stalk downward - a white cruise icon will appear on the instrument panel. Only after pressing the 'SET' button at the end of the stalk will the setting be successfully activated. I usually use it on highways to give my right foot some rest, but I still prefer manual control when encountering curves or heavy traffic for safety.

The cruise control switch for the Audi A6 is located on the left-hand stalk of the steering wheel, marked with a ripple-patterned button at the end. Operation involves three steps: press the power button to activate the system, push the stalk downward when the speed exceeds 30km/h, and finally press the top of the stalk to set the speed. Once during heavy rain, I used cruise control and realized it wouldn't automatically decelerate, so I quickly hit the brakes. This feature is best suited for straight roads or highways with light traffic; manual control is still necessary for complex road conditions. The position may vary slightly depending on the model year, with older versions possibly locating it in the steering wheel's multifunction area.
