IMPACT ALERT (IA)
The Impact Alert is the most severe warning issued
by the Bendix
®
Wingman
®
Advanced
™
system. This
alert indicates that a collision with the detected forward
vehicle is likely and the driver must immediately act to
potentially avoid, or lessen the severity of, a collision.
The Impact Alert is ready to alert the driver whenever
the vehicle is moving above 15 mph.
When activated, the IA will sound and a visual message/
icon typically appears on the dash screen or Bendix
®
Driver
Interface Unit (DIU) display. The actual sound/display
method varies by vehicle manufacturer.
NOTE: The Impact Alert is typically accompanied by
automatic brake interventions. The Wingman Advanced
system will apply up to two-thirds of your vehicle’s braking
capacity. The driver must apply additional braking, when
necessary, to maintain a safe distance from the vehicle
ahead.
See Figure 7 for an example of an Impact Alert Icon.

FOLLOWING DISTANCE ALERT (FDA)
The Following Distance Alert (FDA) provides both
audible and visual alerts whenever the time between
your vehicle and the detected forward vehicle ahead is
less than one and a half (1.5) seconds* and decreasing.
Once the audible alert is given, the driver should
increase the distance
between his/her vehicle
and the vehicle ahead
until the audible alert
stops.
The FDA is ready to alert
the driver whenever the
vehicle is moving above
fi ve (5) mph. If the following
distance continues to
decrease, the driver will hear
more rapid audible alerts.
When the FDA reaches its
highest level, typically a red
LED also illuminates on the
instrument cluster. The FDA
may be accompanied by a
visual alert.
* 1.5 seconds is the system
default and may vary by
fl eet/OEM.

manufacturer’s displays.
