OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The Fusion system reacts ONLY to vehicles that are stationary or
moving in the same direction as your vehicle. The Fusion system
DOES NOT respond to side-to-side moving traffic, or oncoming
traffic. The system will not slow your vehicle or provide an alert as
you approach vehicles in these circumstances.
Vehicle equipped with
Fusion system
Detected forward vehicle
The system does not brake nor
warn for vehicles approaching
from the side or oncoming
When the Fusion system needs to intervene, it works in conjunction
with the ESP stability system to engage the brakes. The system
should never be relied upon to stop your vehicle or to avoid a collision.
You can, and should, still apply full braking force, if needed.
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.
Whenever the cruise control is set, the Active Cruise with Braking feature
is also set. You can not engage cruise control without also using all the
features of the Fusion system.
Using a radar (with a range of approximately 150m) 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 on page 159. 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.
