NOTE: Cruise control will automatically cancel whenever the Bendix
®
Wingman
®
Fusion
™
system applies the foundation brakes. You can verify
the system is disengaged by observing that the cruise-enabled icon is no
longer illuminated. You must resume, or set, cruise control in order to regain
normal cruise control functionality and to re-engage the Active Cruise with
Braking feature of the Fusion system.
The Forward Detected Vehicle Icon
When cruise control is switched on and set, and a vehicle ahead of you is
detected by the radar, the forward detected vehicle icon (or similar) on the
vehicle dashboard will illuminate.
This is an indication to you that the Wingman Fusion system is
actively managing the distance between your vehicle and the
vehicle ahead, and that the system may automatically intervene.
Adjusting the Cruise Control Speed
Use the switch(es) provided by the vehicle manufacturer to set your cruise
control speed. When adjusted, your set speed will typically be indicated on
the vehicle dash, message center, speedometer, etc.
What is Following Distance?
Following distance refers to the time gap – measured in seconds – between
the vehicle with Wingman Fusion and the vehicle ahead. The actual physical
distance between the two will vary based on the speeds of both vehicles;
however, the set gap will remain the same for all set cruise speeds.
Fusion Collision Mitigation Feature Operation
Whenever the vehicle is traveling above 15 mph / 24 kph, the Wingman Fusion
collision mitigation feature is ready to intervene, if needed. It does not require
cruise control to be set. The collision mitigation feature of Wingman Fusion
will automatically alert you and apply the vehicle’s brakes, if a collision with the
detected forward vehicle is likely to occur. You, the driver, must immediately
act to potentially avoid, or lessen the severity of, a collision.
Automatic Foundation Brake Applications
The vehicle automatically manages foundation braking priorities among the
various vehicle systems that use the foundation brakes, such as Wingman
Fusion, Bendix
®
ESP
®
(Electronic Stability Program), Bendix
®
ATC (Automatic
Traction Control), and the Bendix
®
ABS (Antilock Braking System).
