Congratulations on the recent purchase! I hope you’ve been enjoying your new-to-you Honda CR-V EX
. Owning a vehicle that has cruise control can make driving less stressful and much more enjoyable, especially during long trips. The best part is that using cruise control is as simple as pressing a few buttons.
To use cruise control on a Honda CR-V from 2011, follow these steps:
Push the cruise button on the steering wheel. You’ll know it’s on when the indicator light appears on the instrument panel.
Accelerate to your desired cruising speed. If you’re going below 25 miles per hour, the system will not be able to engage.
Press and release the set/decel button on the steering wheel to maintain your current speed. The indicator on the instrument panel should change to show the system is activated.
When using cruise control, it’s also good to know that:
If you use the brakes to slow down, cruise control will automatically turn off.
To resume the set speed, press the res/accel button.
You can slowly increase your speed by pressing and holding the res/accel button until you reach your desired speed.
You can slowly decrease your speed by pressing and holding the set/decel button until you reach your desired speed.
Finally, if you want to cruise into some savings, you should use Jerry
