Warning Chime Characteristics
The warning chimes use volume, chime frequency, length of time the chime sounds, decay of the chime tone and the number of chime tones to identify which chime is sounding. Most warning chimes have unique characteristics, however, there are chimes that do sound the same. The chime characteristics are defined by the different chime types:
Information Soft-warning Hard-warning Tick-tock (on-off)
Adaptive Cruise Control Warning Chime
The adaptive cruise control warning chime supplements the message center displays to draw the driver's attention to the need to intervene and take control of the vehicle. There are 2 levels of chime output (high priority and low priority) based upon the nature and urgency of the warning. The audio system sounds the appropriate warning chime through the front speakers when it receives the adaptive cruise control warning request (high priority chime) or cruise control status (low priority chime) message from the CCM.
The low priority adaptive cruise control warning chime is a single-tone, 1-second chime that sounds to alert the driver the adaptive cruise control system has shut itself off due to low vehicle speed (approximately 32 km/h [20 mph]) and the driver needs to intervene if further braking is required or to resume the adaptive cruise control operation.
The high priority adaptive cruise control warning chime is a 0.25-second chime that sounds 12 times. The chime alerts the driver the vehicle is approaching the vehicle ahead at a faster rate than the adaptive cruise control system can brake the vehicle and the driver needs to apply the brakes to slow the vehicle down.
The IPC receives the cruise control status and the adaptive cruise control warning request messages from the GWM over the HS-CAN3.
