How to put Lexus in cruise control?
Putting your Lexus in cruise control is a simple process that can make long drives more comfortable and efficient. Cruise control allows you to maintain a consistent speed without constantly pressing the accelerator pedal. This guide will walk you through the steps to activate and use the cruise control feature in your Lexus.
Activating Cruise Control
To activate the cruise control in your Lexus, follow these steps:
- Make sure your Lexus is in drive and traveling at a speed of at least 25 mph.
- Locate the cruise control buttons on your steering wheel or dashboard. These are typically labeled with "CRUISE" or have a cruise control icon.
- Press the "On" or "Set" button to activate the cruise control system. You should see the cruise control indicator light up on your dashboard.
Once the cruise control is activated, you can adjust the set speed using the "+" and "-" buttons on your steering wheel or dashboard.
Adjusting Cruise Control Speed
To adjust the cruise control speed, use the following methods:
- To increase the speed, press the "+" button on your steering wheel or dashboard.
- To decrease the speed, press the "-" button on your steering wheel or dashboard.
- To temporarily disengage the cruise control without turning it off, tap the brake pedal. This will allow you to slow down or speed up without affecting the set speed.
- To resume the set speed after disengaging, press the "Resume" button on your steering wheel or dashboard.
Remember to always keep a safe following distance and be aware of your surroundings when using cruise control, as it does not automatically adjust for changing traffic conditions.
Deactivating Cruise Control
To turn off the cruise control system, press the "Cancel" or "Off" button on your steering wheel or dashboard. This will disengage the cruise control without erasing the set speed, allowing you to resume it later if desired.
By following these steps, you can easily activate, adjust, and deactivate the cruise control feature in your Lexus, making your driving experience more comfortable and efficient.
