The Adaptive Cruise Control with Braking Feature
NOTE: Whenever the cruise control is set, the adaptive cruise control with
braking feature is also set. You can not engage cruise control without
also using all the features of the Bendix
®
Wingman
®
Advanced ™ system.
Setting Cruise Control
Activating the adaptive cruise control with braking feature is as easy as
using ordinary cruise control.
Examples of cruise control switches
First, switch on the cruise control. Accelerate your vehicle to the cruise
control speed you wish to maintain, then press the cruise control set
switch. The adaptive cruise control with braking feature is now ready
and will help you maintain a set following distance.
Once the cruise control speed is set, a
green cruise-enabled icon (or similar) will
illuminate on the instrument panel. If
the cruise-enabled (or similar) icon does
not illuminate, the cruise control is not
functioning normally. Please refer to your
vehicle operator’s manual to double-check
the location of the icon and for further
troubleshooting information.
Some vehicle manufac turers use the
instrument cluster to momentarily show the
cruise control set speed to the driver.
Where the Driver Interface Unit (DIU) display is used, a text message will
provide the set speed information.
The driver can switch the adaptive cruise control with braking feature off
manually by either stepping on the brake, or switching OFF the cruise
control.
