What Features are Included in the
Bendix Wingman Fusion System?
Part One: Active Cruise with Braking
Think of the Active Cruise with Braking (ACB) feature as an additional upgrade
to ordinary cruise control. When using cruise control, your vehicle not only
will maintain the set speed, but the system will also intervene – as needed – to
help maintain a set following distance behind the vehicle in front of you.
Using a radar (with a range of approximately 500 feet) mounted to the front
of your vehicle, the System reacts ONLY to vehicles moving in the same
direction as you. (The system DOES NOT respond to side‑to‑side moving
traffic or oncoming traffic.)
See the STRIPED area in the diagram above. The Active Cruise with Braking
feature is designed to help maintain a set following distance between your
vehicle and the vehicle ahead when cruise control is set.
