Acura ILX Cruise Control 2022 Sedan Specification

The Acura ILX 2022 Sedan features an advanced cruise control system designed to enhance both comfort and safety during long-distance drives. This system integrates seamlessly with the vehicle's existing driver-assist technologies, providing a smooth and effortless driving experience. The cruise control system in the Acura ILX automatically maintains a set speed determined by the driver, reducing the need for constant manual acceleration.

A key feature of this system is the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), which utilizes radar and camera technology to monitor the distance between the ILX and the vehicle ahead. ACC automatically adjusts the car's speed to maintain a safe following distance, enhancing safety in varying traffic conditions. When the road ahead is clear, the system resumes the preset speed. This functionality is particularly useful in highway driving, where it can significantly reduce driver fatigue.

The cruise control system is easily operated through steering wheel-mounted controls, allowing the driver to set or adjust the speed without taking their hands off the wheel. The system also includes a speed limiter feature, enabling the driver to set a maximum speed to avoid accidental speeding.

Additionally, the ILX’s cruise control system is integrated with the vehicle’s braking system. In scenarios where a sudden stop is required, the system can automatically apply the brakes to prevent a collision. This integration ensures that the vehicle can respond quickly and appropriately to unexpected changes in traffic conditions.

Overall, the Acura ILX 2022 Sedan's cruise control system combines traditional cruise control features with advanced adaptive technologies, providing a safer, more relaxed driving experience that adapts to both the driver's preferences and the surrounding traffic environment.

How do I activate the cruise control on my 2022 Acura ILX?

To activate the cruise control, press the 'MAIN' button on the steering wheel to enable the system. Then, accelerate to your desired speed and press the 'SET' button to set the cruise control.

What should I do if the cruise control is not maintaining the set speed?

If the cruise control is not maintaining speed, check if there are any warning lights on the dashboard. Ensure the cruise control system is fully engaged and check for mechanical issues like brake problems. If issues persist, consult your dealer.

Can I use cruise control in heavy traffic conditions?

It is not recommended to use cruise control in heavy traffic, as it is better suited for steady speeds on open roads. Adaptive cruise control may be more suitable if your vehicle is equipped with it.

How do I adjust the set speed for cruise control on the Acura ILX?

To adjust the set speed, use the 'RES/+' button to increase the speed and the 'SET/-' button to decrease it. Each press changes the speed by 1 mph or 1 km/h.

What does the 'MAIN' button do in the cruise control system?

The 'MAIN' button activates the cruise control system, allowing you to then set and maintain a speed using the other control buttons.

How can I temporarily deactivate the cruise control without losing the set speed?

To temporarily deactivate cruise control, press the brake pedal or the 'CANCEL' button. The set speed will be retained and can be resumed using the 'RES' button.

Why does the cruise control deactivate automatically?

The cruise control may deactivate automatically if the vehicle's speed drops significantly, if the brake is applied, or if there are traction or stability control interventions.

What should I check if the cruise control system fails to initialize?

Ensure the vehicle is traveling above the minimum speed required for cruise control activation. Check for any warning lights and consult the owner's manual for specific conditions that may prevent initialization.

Can the cruise control be used on steep inclines or declines?

While cruise control can be used on inclines and declines, it may not maintain speed perfectly. It is advisable to manually control the vehicle's speed in such situations for better control.

How do I turn off the cruise control system completely?

To turn off the cruise control system, press the 'MAIN' button again. This will deactivate the system and clear any set speed from memory.
