System Maintenance And Troubleshooting - BENDIX Activa Fusion Manual Del Operador

With cruise control set, when following a detected forward vehicle around a
curve, the forward vehicle may be lost by the Bendix
Active Cruise with Braking (ACB) feature will delay acceleration back to the
set speed until one of the following events occur:
• The system regains contact with the vehicle ahead;
• The system detects that there is no longer a vehicle ahead; or
• A time gap has occurred (based on the last following distance recorded
For example: Assume cruise control is set at 50 mph / 80 kph and you are
following 3 seconds behind a vehicle traveling at 45 mph / 72 kph that
just entered a sharp curve. If the vehicle ahead is no longer detected
as you travel around the curve, the Fusion system will delay the vehicle
acceleration back to 50 mph (80 kph).
It is also possible for the Fusion system to begin tracking vehicles in other lanes
when traveling around curves. In cases where the Fusion system perceives
that an adjacent‑lane vehicle is in your lane, the system may intervene and
begin making brake applications.

System Maintenance and Troubleshooting

The Bendix Fusion system is relatively maintenance‑free. The key items to
keep the system functioning properly include:
• Keep the radar sensor and camera lens clean and free of obstructions.
• Visually inspect for any damage to the bumper or the Fusion cover,
bracket, or radar to ensure the alignment has not been compromised.
Never use the radar unit as a step.
• Ensure the tires are properly inflated and that adequate tread is present.
