2022 Jaguar F-TYPE Cruise Control
CRUISE CONTROL SAFETY
Make sure the following warnings have been read and fully understood before using cruise control. Failure to use cruise control safely could result in an accident, leading to serious injury or death.
The driver must always make sure that a safe speed is maintained within the speed limit, taking account of traffic and road conditions. Driving at unsafe speeds increases the risk of an accident.
In certain conditions, such as a steep downhill slope, the vehicle’s speed may exceed the set cruising speed. Driver intervention may be required. Driving at speeds above the set cruising speed may infringe on local laws.
Do not use cruise control in heavy traffic, or conditions where a constant road speed cannot be safely maintained. For example, cruise control should not be used on roads that are winding, wet with rain or snow, slippery, or unpaved.
USING CRUISE CONTROL
Make sure the relevant safety warnings have been read and understood before driving the vehicle. See CRUISE CONTROL SAFETY.

Cruise control allows the vehicle to automatically maintain a set vehicle speed. The system is operated by controls mounted on the steering wheel. The driver can also intervene at any time by using the brake or accelerator pedals.
While driving at the desired speed, press the SET+ button to activate cruise control. The instrument panel displays an information lamp to confirm that the system is operational. See CRUISE CONTROL (GREEN).
To increase the set speed, press the SET+ button. A single press of the button raises the vehicle’s speed by 1 mph (2 km/h). Alternatively, press the accelerator pedal. When the new desired speed is reached, press the SET+ button.
Cruise control cancels if the accelerator pedal is pressed to override the system for more than 5 minutes.
Press the SET- button to lower the set speed. A single press of the button lowers the vehicle’s speed by 1 mph (2 km/h).
Press the CAN button to cancel cruise control. The set speed is retained in the system’s memory until the vehicle’s ignition is switched off.
Press the RES button to resume the set speed from the system’s memory.
The RES button should only be used if the driver is aware of the set speed and intends to return to it. Pressing the RES button when not aware of the set speed may lead to a loss of control of the vehicle.
