How to Configure Adaptive Cruise Control on a Volkswagen

Model: Volkswagen Volkswagen Various
Part: Instrument cluster

Let's see how to modify the configuration of the adaptive cruise control on your Volkswagen. Select the "car" menu, then select "setup" followed by "driver assistance". Choose "driving programme", where you can select various modes. The YouTuber prefers the "eco" mode, which prioritises low fuel consumption. Next, choose the distance you want your car to maintain from the vehicle in front: by default, it selects "normal", but this depends on your driving style, so choose what you feel is most suitable. You can also opt to use "last selected distance", which is the last one the vehicle has stored and selected via the controls on the steering wheel. Operation complete.
