Approaching Slower Moving Vehicles
When approaching a slower-moving vehicle ahead, the driver should
anticipate this and begin applying the vehicle’s brakes early. Do not wait
for the Bendix

Wingman

ACB system to intervene.
Vehicles Crossing Your Path or Coming Towards You
The Bendix Wingman ACB system reacts ONLY to vehicles moving
in the same direction as your vehicle. The Wingman ACB system
DOES NOT respond to side-to-side moving traffic, or oncoming
traffic. The system WILL NOT slow your vehicle or provide an
alert as you approach vehicles in these circumstances.

System Maintenance and Troubleshooting
Importance of Foundation Brake Maintenance – Optimal Wingman
ACB system braking requires properly maintained vehicle foundation
brakes (drum, wide-drum, or air disc) which meet appropriate safety
standards and regulations. Brake performance also requires that
the vehicle be equipped with properly sized and inflated tires with
a safe tread depth.
Importance of ABS Maintenance – Optimal Wingman ACB system
braking requires a properly maintained ABS (Antilock Brake System)
system. Have any ABS Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) corrected
by a qualified technician at the earliest opportunity.
