Car with ACC, how do I use normal cruise?

My ACC/radar functions have decided the sensor is dirty (it’s not) and won’t let me activate cruise control

Is there a way to use regular cruise instead?

First road trip in bmw, annoyed 🤬

I think from memory you hold down the ACC button and it switches to standard cruise control

It is buried in the manual

This is correct. You will have to do this everytime you start the car though. It doesn't remember it and reverts back to the last distance set.

This doesn’t seem to be working, I hold down the button and it just says “cannot activate cruise control” then goes back to regular screen
