BENDIX BW2769 Manuel D’Utilisation

Automated shifting transmissions are fully compatible with the Bendix

™

 SmartCruise 

adaptive cruise control system. SmartCruise allows the automated transmission 
to change gears while keeping the adaptive cruise control active when the vehicle 
decelerates and/or accelerates.

Adjusting Following Distance
When SmartCruise

®

 is active, the forward looking radar will attempt to maintain a 

default following distance of approximately 3.25 seconds. Some systems allow the 
driver to adjust the following distance by changing the range setting in the DIU menu 
options.

The user may be able to adjust the following distance from a maximum of 3.25 
seconds down to 2.25 seconds.

Note:  Refer to the “User Option Settings” section in this manual for more information 

on the range setting.
