OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Alerts and Warnings
The Fusion system functions differently than other cruise control/forward
collision alert and mitigation systems. The system also assists by giving
audible and visual alerts, whether or not cruise control is on. It is important
for you to fully understand the system’s features, especially the driver
indications and alerts.
Six main alerts provided by the Fusion system are:
• Impact Alert (IA),
• Following Distance Alert (FDA),
• Stationary Object Alert (SOA),
• Stationary Vehicle Braking (SVB), and
• Lane Departure Warning (LDW)
All of the alerts are always ready to alert you, whether or not you are using
cruise control.
Any audible and/or visual alert by the system means that your
vehicle is too close to the vehicle ahead or your vehicle is outside
the intended lane of travel. You must immediately act to potentially
avoid, or lessen the severity of, a collision and to maintain control
of the vehicle to the intended lane.
Pedestrians, Animals, Non-metallic, or Limited-metallic Objects
The Fusion system will not warn or react to pedestrians, animals, and
non-metallic objects. The system may not warn or react to limited-metallic
objects (such as recreational vehicles, horse-drawn buggies, motorcycles,
logging trailers, etc.).
Metallic Objects May Impair the Radar
Objects that are radar-reflective – such as crash barriers, guard rails,
construction zone barricades, and tunnel entrances – may impair the
function of the radar.
