The
Bendix
Wingman
Advanced
Collision
Avoidance
Radar
System
consists
of
the
following
features
Adaptive
Cruise
Control
with
Braking
Adaptive
Cruise
Control
with
Braking
is
an
additional
upgrade
to
ordinary
cruise
control,
designed
to
help
the
Driver
maintain
a
set
following
distance
between
the
Driver’s
vehicle
and
a
detected
forward
vehicle,
when
cruise
control
is
set.
The
feature
will
maintain
the
set
speed,
and
will
also
intervene,
as
needed,
to
help
maintain
a
set
following
distance
behind
a
detected
forward
vehicle.
In
order
to
maintain
a
set
following
distance,
the
system
will
intervene
in
the
following
order;
reducing
the
engine
throttle,
engaging
the
engine
retarder
and
applying
the
foundation
brakes.
Alerts
Bendix
Wingman
Advanced
assists
by
giving
audible
and
visual
alerts,
whether
or
not
cruise
control
is
on.
Three
important
alerts
provided
are:
Following
Distance
Alert
(FDA)
‐
audible
and
visual
alerts
which
let
Driver
know
when
getting
too
close
to
forward
vehicle.
Impact
Alert
(IA)
–
audible
and
visual
alerts
warning
the
Driver
that
a
collision
with
the
forward
vehicle
is
likely
and
that
they
should
address
the
situation
immediately.
.
Stationary
Object
Alerts
(SOA)
‐
audible
and
visual
alerts
that
provide
the
Driver
up
to
a
3.0
second
alert
when
a
metallic
object(s)
may
be
blocking
lane
of
travel.
Collision
Mitigation
Technology
Collision
Mitigation
Technology
is
designed
to
be
ready
to
react
to
the
presence
of
moving
vehicles
in
front
of
your
vehicle,
whether
or
not
cruise
control
is
set.
Collision
mitigation
provides
the
Driver
with
an
alert
before
an
intervention
occurs,
and
applies
the
brakes
when
the
system
determines
a
collision
with
forward
vehicle
is
imminent.
The
Driver
must
immediately
act
to
potentially
avoid,
or
lessen
the
severity
of
a
collision.
(Vehicle
must
be
travelling
above
15
mph)
Operating
Cruise
Modes
Cruise
Control
Not
Set:
Your
vehicle
operates
as
usual
when
the
Adaptive
Cruise
Control
with
Braking
is
not
set.
The
collision
mitigation
feature
remains
active
and
ready
to
intervene.
The
Driver
will
continue
to
hear
all
alerts
and
warnings
as
needed.
Cruise
Control
Set:
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
green
cruise
‐
enabled
(or
similar)
icon
does
not
illuminate,
the
cruise
control
is
not
functioning
normally,
and
the
problem
will
need
to
be
noted
on
your
DVIR
and
a
repair
appointment
booked
with
Bison
Maintenance.
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
the
driver
that
the
Bendix
Wingman
Advanced
System
is
actively
managing
the
distance
between
your
vehicle
and
the
vehicle
ahead,
and
that
the
system
may
automatically
intervene.
Note:
•
Whenever
the
cruise
control
is
set,
the
Adaptive
Cruise
Control
with
Braking
feature
is
also
set.
You
cannot
engage
cruise
control
without
also
using
all
the
features
of
the
Bendix
Wingman
Advanced
System.
•
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.
•
Cruise
control
will
automatically
cancel
whenever
the
Bendix
Wingman
Advanced
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
reengage
the
adaptive
cruise
control
with
braking
feature
of
the
Bendix
Wingman
Advanced
System.
