How Do I Use Honda Accord Adaptive Cruise Control?

My new Honda Accord has something called adaptive cruise control that is apparently supposed to make driving on the highway easier. I’m not really sure what it is or even how to turn it on. How am I supposed to use my Honda Accord’s adaptive cruise control?

You’re right, the adaptive cruise control feature in the Honda Accord can make it easier to drive on the highway! To use the Honda Accord Adaptive Cruise Control, just press the button labeled ACC on your steering wheel. Then press the Set/- button to set your speed.
Adaptive Crusie Control (ACC) uses a front-mounted radar and camera system to detect cars and objects in front of you. This way, it can alter your pace to a set follow speed – or even stop the car if needed.
With the
Honda Accord
Adaptive Crusie Control, you won’t have to worry about breaking and stopping cruise control every time a car appears in front of you. The ACC system will automatically detect cars and adjust your speed to the appropriate follow speed based on the distance of the other car and your current velocity.
Once you’re at the speed you want to maintain, hit the ACC button on the steering wheel, then hit the Set/- button. Your car will maintain that speed unless another car is detected in front of you.
You can also increase or decrease your cruise speed using the Set/- or Res/+ buttons. Press the Interval button on the steering wheel to increase or decrease your following distance.
