first, you should press the cruise button. after that, you have to press the set button at your desired speed. the speed can be increased by pressing res button or decreased by pressing set button. and also make sure that your left foot is not pressing the class or on the class. because, if you put slight pressure on the class , the cruise control will not operating.
Thank you for the info but what is class you mean clutch right...?

Dear Blackpearlvkd
Heartiest Congratulation on your Honda City it looks dashing in white. I've also test driven the Honda City from latest batch i haven't found any issues with steering or Engine Noise but somhow i could not engage the cruise control for the test drive car.....

Thank you so much for warm wishes

Regarding cruise control. Min required speed is 40 km/ph, but I suggest to try it above 70, on Top (6th) gear.

Step 1, Press Cruise Button available at right side of steering
this button works as toggle, first press will Set it to ON, pressing again (second time) will set it to Off.

this will set cruise control to ON state.
you will see green light on console (marked in square), in picture its off, it will glow green.


Step 2. on desired speed, Press Set (-) button

this will set Cruise Control on Active mode, now remove your leg from race Paddle.
You will see both light will glow up, when cruise control is active.


Step 3. to cancel /disengage Cruise Control
I. Press Cancel Button (Center button)
II. you can press Cruise Button,this will inactive Cruise control and set to Off mode.
III. Press Brake Paddle (even slight press will Disengage Cruise Control)
IV. Press Clutch Paddle (even slight press will Disengage Cruise Control), I Have not tried this one till now.

Last two steps (III AND IV) will remember your last cruising speed, accelerate your car above 40 KM/ph and press Res/+ Button. This is speed your car upto last cruising speed.

Few point to remember out of my experience.
1. Never try cruise control on curvy roads.
2. Cruise Control maintains speed not power, So if you are on climb, it will use more power to keep same speed, it will not slow down your car, which we required some times (on curves).
3. if there is traffic ahead, it is advisable to cancel cruise control before nearing traffic.
4. It is always advisable to Use Set (-) every time when you are engaging cruise control and increase speed gradually.
Eg. your last speed was 100 km/ph, your current speed is 50, if you press Res (+)
it will try to reach 100 km/ph as soon as possible, you may feel little unconfortable, and it will use more power.


Happy Cruising [clap]

One thing I observed
Honda did not polish car, not even once. Even at the time of delivery I requested them many times to clean car properly and apply some polish, but they said, sir polish is already applied and vehicle is clean. Now I understood, they did nothing except car wash. now cleaning car also became very easy, No need of wet cloth, dry cloth is enough to wipe dust and water marks.

I did Wax on Sunday, and the surface level became very smooth,
I used same cloth on windshield and the roughness of glass is gone, I did not apply polish on glass.

now I feel How miser are they, I got toyota innova also, every time I give my Innova for service, they will clean the vehicle and polish it before delivering.

In my recent small trip (Last Sunday 16/Oct/2016) of 80 kms one side,
Fuel Effiency displayed was 30.1 (I doubt [surprise])
It was NH8, used cruise control, 80km/ph constant speed.

it's surprising to hear that they didn't polish the car. but our service center of honda is quite opposite. they washes the car and polishes the car as good as or better than the car washing or waxing centers.

Reposting as pictures were not visible.

City looks really stunning in White
Did first wax on city and it gave me a complete new look.
the color tone became more attractive.
Here are few pics after wax










These headlights are enough for me.


Visibility after sun control film, Windshield is shining.


I love its Tail




beautiful curve




Sun roof


VX Badge


Door handle with sensor

One thing I observed, during wash, when water touches this sensor, it unlocks door(if remote is near to car).
what I think is, it should work only on the touch of human body to sensor.

Reverse Parking camera is very useful, camera case is fragile.


rear boot Lid sensor, just finger touch is enough. it will open boot lid.


rear AC is really a brilliant add, Verna lacks rear AC, that's why I did not choose Verna.It cools cabin very quick.


playground space in second row. first thought came in our mind was, let children play there.


Side Step Sill Plates (Illuminated) only first row.


I did not remove white plastic cover from plate till now. :p

Underbody Antirust Coating

Nice pics. But I would like to give a suggestion. Don't be a typical Indian, just remove those hideous looking plastic seat covering as soon as possible.

Car clocked 970 Km,
first service is due for 1,000 kms.
I'm planning to change Engine oil on first service.
Should I go for it?
is it really worth?
Engine oil change is done at 5k or 6 months for petrol and 10k or 6 months for diesel engines and I don't think you can choose engine oil change now.

Servicing goes as per schedule and car owners cannot alter it. You can opt for extra services like wheel alignment/balancing, tightening of parts, and etc repairs but base service is fixed.

i.e You have got 5k servicing for your vehicle but car has run only 2k. Later when your car running reaches 5k, you have to opt for 10k service. That means once services is done, it cannot be repeated. At present my car odo is 50k but I have got 60k service recently because I have already used-up previous services without actually running my car that much. [sad]

1k service would be general checkup, tightening of parts where necessary, washing and washer fluid top-up.

Yesterday I received Jopasu Duster from amazon,
while taking delivery I confirmed two times about the package whether its mine or someone else,
I was shocked to see the size of the box, it was almost 5ft.

but as I opened the package, my doubt was clear.

total Amount I paid was 599. (Amazon.in)
