System Features; Active Cruise With Braking - BENDIX Activa Fusion Manual Del Operador

When normal cruise control is on and set as confirmed by the cruise control
icon on the dash, the Active Cruise with Braking (ACB) feature also becomes
available. The system will not only intervene to maintain the cruise control
set speed, but also can intervene to maintain a set following distance (about
three seconds) behind the moving vehicle in front of you.
When you encounter a detected forward vehicle that slows down below the
cruise control set speed, the system has the ability to de‑throttle the engine,
apply the retarder, or activate the foundation brakes – if needed – in order
to maintain the gap with the forward vehicle.
If the system automatically applies the foundation brakes in order to maintain
the gap with the forward vehicle, and the vehicle is above a minimum speed
defined by the OEM, the vehicle will "auto‑resume" back to the cruise control
set speed and maintain the cruise control set speed setting.
If the vehicle is below the minimum defined speed, the vehicle will automatically
cancel cruise control and will not attempt to throttle up to a previously set
cruise control set speed.
