1.1 IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
The driver is always responsible for the control and
safe operation of the vehicle at all times. The Bendix
Wingman Advanced system does not replace the
need for a skilled, alert professional driver, reacting
appropriately and in a timely manner, and using safe
driving practices.
This vehicle's cruise control must be used only in the same
conditions that are normally recommended for ordinary
cruise control.
Vehicle manufacturers may use alerts, messages, and
dash arrangements that vary from the examples shown
here. Consult the vehicle operator’s manual for applicable
details regarding use and operation.
WHEN NOT TO USE BENDIX WINGMAN
ADVANCED ADAPTIVE CRUISE
CONTROL WITH BRAKING
The adaptive cruise control with braking feature in
Wingman Advanced is automatically ready when
normal cruise control is set.
WARNING: This vehicle’s cruise control must be
used only in the same conditions that are normally
recommended for ordinary cruise control. As noted
below, there are certain situations when cruise control
should NOT be used.
• Inclement Weather/Low Visibility
Situations – Do not use cruise control
in inclement weather or low visibility
conditions such as rain, snow, smoke, fog,
ice or other severe weather conditions
that may affect the performance of the
Wingman Advanced system.
• Dense Traffic – Do not use cruise control
in heavy traffic.
• Sharp Curves and Winding Roads –
Do not use cruise control when traveling
sharply curved or winding roadways.
CAUTION: Road curvature may impact
the radar’s ability to track vehicles ahead
in the same lane.
• Entrance or Exit Ramps – Do not use
cruise control when entering or exiting
roadways.
• Downhill Grades – Do not use cruise
control on downhill grades.
• Construction Zones – Do not use cruise
control in construction zones.
• Off-Road – Do not use cruise control in
off-road conditions.
• Smaller Forward Vehicles – Smaller
vehicles, such as motorcycles, may be
difficult for the radar to identify. It is the
driver’s responsibility to be aware of
these types of vehicles and to slow down
if necessary.
