2021 Ford F-150 Owners Manual - Cruise Control



Cruise Control

Cruise control lets you maintain a set speed without keeping your foot on the accelerator pedal.

Use cruise control when the vehicle speed is greater than 15 mph in imperial units and 20 km/h in metric units.

WARNING: Do not use cruise control on winding roads, in heavy traffic or when the road surface is slippery. This could result in loss of vehicle control, serious injury or death.

The cruise controls are on the steering wheel.

Press the button to activate the system. When the system activates, the set speed is equal

to whichever is greater, the current vehicle speed, or 15 mph when in imperial units or 20 km/h when in metric units. If the speed is too low, or other conditions are not correct for cruise control activation, the system will instead enter standby mode.

Press the button when the system is active or switch the ignition off.

Note: When you switch cruise control off, the set speed clears.

WARNING: When you are going downhill, your vehicle speed could increase above the set speed. The system does not apply the brakes.

Drive to the speed you prefer.

Press either the Set+ or Set- buttons to set the current speed.

Take your foot off the accelerator pedal.

Note: The indicator changes color in the information display.

Press the Set+ button to increase the set speed in small increments. Press and hold the

Set+ button to accelerate. Release the button when you have reached your preferred speed.

Press the Set- button to decrease the set speed in small increments. Press and hold the

Set- button to decelerate. Release the button when you have reached your preferred speed.

Note: If you accelerate by pressing the accelerator pedal, the set speed does not change. When you release the accelerator pedal, your vehicle returns to the speed that you previously set.
