I never use the limiter as, unlike cruise control, it doesn't apply apply the brakes when going downhill, which results in the pre-set limit being exceeded.
I suspect that you're not using the cruise control to its full potential - pressing the bottom button initiates the system and aligns the orange cursor with the current speed. Cruise can then be engaged by either pressing the middle button, which will then match the previously selected speed or you can flick the speed adjust paddle at any point and cruise will then be established at that particular speed. Either of these options will turn the cursor green until cruise is disengaged, when it will revert to orange and serve as a reminder of what speed you had selected.
It's an excellent cruise control system and the more you use it, the more intuitive its use will become.
