The Bendix ® Wingman ® Advanced ™ System Components
The Wingman Advanced radar locates and tracks moving vehicles. The
radar is located at the front of your vehicle – either on the bumper or just
behind it on a cross-member. When located behind the bumper, in some
cases the unit also may be behind a protective covering that allows the
radar signal to pass through.
The Bendix ® Wingman ® Advanced ™ radar is pre-aligned at the factory and
no adjustment should be needed. If the radar becomes misaligned, (or
any other system problem is detected) a message, or light on the dash
lets the driver know that service is needed.
Above: Examples of radar sensors.
System Display
Driver information about the Wingman Advanced system is either fully
integrated into the vehicle dashboard, or uses the Bendix
® Driver Interface
Unit (DIU). Although the system functions the same, how the alerts are
displayed to the driver can be different. See the Alerts and Warnings
section of this manual on pages 19-21 for more detailed information
about the alerts.
NOTE: For some integrated systems,
the volume level of the alerts is not
adjustable, nor can they be switched
off.
