OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
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 or Driver Interface Unit (DIU) display will illuminate.
Bendix
Object Detected
No LEDs Illuminated
Driver Interface Unit (DIU) – Showing Object Detected warning – no audio tones
will sound.
This is an indication to you that the Fusion system is actively managing the
distance between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead, and that the system
may automatically intervene.
Automatic Foundation Brake Applications
The vehicle automatically manages foundation braking priorities among the
various vehicle systems that use the foundation brakes, such as Fusion,
ESP (Electronic Stability Program), ATC (Automatic Traction Control), and
the ABS (Antilock Braking System).
Applying the Brakes Before the System Does
If you determine that a hazard or unsafe condition exists, you should take
all necessary actions immediately.
Never wait for the Fusion system
to intervene.
Safe operation and control of the vehicle is the responsibility of the
driver at all times. If you, the driver, apply the brakes, cruise control
will disengage automatically, and no Fusion intervention will occur.
Approaching Slower-Moving Vehicles
When approaching a slower-moving vehicle ahead, the driver should
anticipate this and begin applying the vehicle’s brakes early.
Do not wait
for the Fusion system to intervene.
