Brake Overuse Warning –
Fusion
system provides a warning when the
system uses the foundation brakes excessively.
Overuse of the foundation brakes can lead to
the brakes overheating and a potential loss of
braking performance caused by brake fade.
Approach grades as you would normally, with the appropriate gear
selected and at a safe speed. Cruise control should NOT be used on
downhill grades.
You should use appropriate gearing and brake techniques on downhill
grades. When the system detects brake overuse, depending on the
vehicle manufacturer, a text message will be displayed on the dashboard
and an audible alert will be activated.
Once the brake overuse alert is activated, certain driver interventions
that cancel cruise control – such as stepping on the brake pedal or
switching off cruise – will discontinue the alert. Following an overuse
alert, you should not reset cruise control for at least 20 minutes. This
gives the brakes time to cool down. If you choose to reset cruise
control during that 20 minute period, Wingman Fusion interventions
will be limited to de‑throttling and engine retarder only. The system
will automatically disable all Wingman Fusion system foundation
brake applications for at least 20 minutes.
Overspeed Alert (OA) –
Wingman
Fusion
®
to warn you if the vehicle's speed exceeds
the posted legal limits. The Overspeed
Alert is enabled when the vehicle is
traveling greater than 5 mph / 8 kph
from the posted limit. The driver should
immediately reduce the vehicle's speed
to the posted legal limit. Note that the
system does not activate overspeed
alerts where the posted speed limit is
20 mph / 32 kph or less.
