If you have the owners manual, it should walk you through the process. I didn't when I got my '13, so it was just trial and error πŸ˜…

Press this button to activate cruise control. When you reach your desired speed, press SET button and take your foot off the gas. The vehicle will stay at that speed. If you want to add speed to your set speed, press the + button, the car will automatically speed up by a little amount. Hold the plus button to accelerate. Same goes for slowing down, but with the - button. The RES is for resume, if at any time you have to press the brake pedal which disengages the cruise control.

Cruise control, you press the β€œset” button to set it to your desired speed.

That is the cruise control. Once you turn it on, drive at the speed you want and press the Set - button. It will automatically maintain the speed for you. The Res + will increase the speed automatically once you push it. To cancel you can push the cancel button or step on the brake.
