Setting The Gap Distance - Ford 2016 Fusion Hybrid Owner's Manual

Your vehicle maintains a constant gap
behind the vehicle ahead until:
• The vehicle in front of you accelerates
to a speed above the set speed.
• The vehicle in front of you moves out
of your lane or out of view.
• The vehicle speed falls below 12 mph
(20 km/h).
• A new gap distance is set.
The system applies the brakes to slow your
vehicle to maintain a safe gap from the
vehicle in front. The maximum braking
which the system can apply is limited. You
can override the system by applying the
brakes.
If the system predicts that its maximum
braking level will not be sufficient, an
audible warning will sound while the
system continues to brake. You will see a
red warning bar displayed on the
windshield. You should take immediate
action.
