Where is the cruise control function on a 2012 Chevy Cruze?
I have a 2012 Chevy Cruze, and I know it has cruise control, but I can’t figure out how to work it. Where is the function located, and how do I activate it?

The 2012 Chevy Cruze cruise control can be found on the left side of the steering wheel, where you’ll see steering wheel-mounted controls; these buttons look like an odometer. To activate cruise control, press the Cruise Control button to turn the system on or off and cancel a set speed.
When the system is activated, you will see an icon on the instrument cluster notifying you that cruise control is ON.
Here’s how to operate it:
Press the middle RES/+ button to set your speed. The white icon on the cluster will turn green, indicating Cruise Control is set and active.
You can remove your foot from the accelerator and ride.
Pressing the far left icon with an X or the brake will disengage cruise control, but your previous speed will still be set.
To resume your previous speed, press RES/+ UP.
Press the bottom of the button to the right to deactivate cruise control and turn the system OFF.
