Default How To: Here's how to increase the speed of cruise control by 1kmph increments

Ok, So this works with my MC Titanium.

1. Press Cruise Control button to start it.
2. Press SET + button to choose your speed. eg. 100km/h
3. Press RES button to increase your speed by 1km/h. eg. 103km/h

Done.

Maybe all cruise control isn't the same as the Falcons one press for one kay or hold for 10?

If you start at 100, and press RES once you get 101, not 103

Thanks, I didn't know about that feature, and it sounds easier than using the + and - buttons to change the speed.

I posted this because using the SET + and - buttons will only give you cruise speed to the nearest 5km/h on the Mondeo. For example 95, 100, 105, 110.
I read some people complaining about this in some of the threads here.

Just ignore the negative comments. Doesn't usually happen in the Mondeo forum.

Is that specific to the Titanium or all models?

The LX taps up and down in 1km/h increments using the +set & -set buttons

Hey bundybear,
Looks like you sleep around a bit with the previous cars you've owned.

Hi all,

I have a MD Titanium (Oct 2015 Build) and the 5kmh increment in the adaptive cruise control has been driving me nuts as I have a 45km each way freeway trip for my commute and would love the 1kmh increments.

I have now found a way that this can be implemented....

Once ACC Cruice is active, using the +/- keys will increase/decrease the set speed by 5kmh as others have stated, however, if you press the +/- buttons WHILE applying pressure to the accelerator, it changes to 1kmh increments.

This worked for me, and I would be keen to know if others experience the same result.

Here is a thread regarding the MD Mondeo that I started a while ago; http://www.fordforums.com.au/showthread.php?t=11454207

I tried what you mentioned and it doesn't really work.
Well it does work, however it is just a lucky dip what speed you "SET" on.
If you wanted 83km/h and then hit "SET" and got 84km/h, well then you just have to keep trying...

I just wish it has the 1km/h intervals...
