Cruise Control headache

We have adaptive cruise with HUD. Hoping someone has a workaround on this. The problem in the controls, the 4 button on the right side of the steering wheel. I can easily turn the system on and set the speed I wish to maintain. If I want to increase speed, resume, decrease speed, or cancel is where the problem lies. I believe the I shouldn't have to look at the HUD every time I want to make one of those changes. The display has increase speed, decrease speed, on one screen and resume, or cancel on the other screen. Also, if I try to resume after braking, I have to press the upper switch one, two, or three time to get it to resume. I hate having to take my eyes off of the road to know what the system is going to do. All other cars I have ever owned have all worked the same. Upper switch is both resume and increase;, down button is set and decrease ; and the right is cancel. Do I have a problem with my system? Lexus sales people don't see problem and just shrug their shoulders.

I think the HUD is not ready for prime time and there should be an alternative

When the cruise is active, the North button is increase, the South button is decrease and the East button is cancel. I believe the buttons change when cruise isn't active. In that case, the North button is resume. The problem I have is the "wakeup delay". If you just press one of the buttons without waiting a half second for the pad to activate, they don't do anything. That may be the confusion.

I have gotten used to it. I don’t look at the HUD when resuming. I just hit the button twice instead of once like all other cruise controls. With that said, it’s a pretty stupid set up. I think with time you will get used to it….even though you shouldn’t have to go to graduate school to figure out how to operate cruise control buttons. As I said in another post, I’d be surprised if this doesn’t go away with the first refresh of this model.
