charge the high‑voltage battery when no
public charging station is available.
R The operating range of your vehicle is
limited due to the availability of public
charging stations.
R Public charging stations may not be
available at all in some areas.
In light of the foregoing, proper care must
be exercised in the planning of a long
distance trip with the vehicle. smart is not
responsible for the availability of public
charging stations. Roadside Assistance
The smartmove Assistance (Canada) and
smart 1 service (USA) Program provides
factory trained technical help in the event
of a breakdown. Calls to the toll-free
Roadside Assistance number
1-800-762-7887 (in the USA)
1-877-627-8004 (in Canada)
will be answered by smart Customer
Assistance Representatives 24 hours a day,
365 days a year.
Roadside Assistance will be provided in
accordance with standard program
guidelines which include providing
service to the vehicle up to a reasonable
distance from a paved roadway. We will
make every effort to assist in a breakdown
situation, however, the accessibility of
your vehicle will be determined by our
authorized electric drive smart center
technician or the tow service provider on
a case-by-case basis and may be a factor in
our ability to respond.
Additional charges may be applicable for
a breakdown location determined not to be
a reasonably accessibl eroadside location
as determined by our authorized
technician and tow service provider.
For additional information refer to the
smart Roadside Assistance Program
brochure (USA) or the Warranty Booklet (Canada) in your vehicle literature
portfolio. Change of address or ownership
In the USA: If you change your address, be
sure to send in the “Information Change
Card” found in the Warranty Information
Booklet.
In Canada: If you change your address, be
sure to send in the “Change of Address
Notice” found in the Warranty Booklet, or
simply call the Customer Service at
1-800-387-0100.
Maintaining your current address
information with smart will enable us to
contact you should important new
information about the vehicle, such as
recalls, become available.
If you sell your smart, please leave all
literature with the vehicle to make it
available to the next operator.
In the USA: If you bought this vehicle used,
be sure to send in the “Information Change
Card” found in the Warranty Information
Booklet.
In Canada: If you bought this vehicle used,
be sure to send in the “Notice of Pre‑Owned
Vehicle Purchase” found in the Warranty
Booklet, or call the Customer Service at
1-800-387-0100. Operating your vehicle outside the USA
or Canada
If you plan to operate your vehicle in
foreign countries, please be aware that:
R Service facilities or replacement parts
may not be readily available.
R The AC power sockets in some countries,
especially overseas, require different
plugs on the charging cable.
R Charging stations may not be available. 14
>> Introduction.

!
When the hill‑start assist system stops
braking the vehicle, it can roll
backwards.
If you open the driver’s door, the
hill‑start assist system is deactivated
and a warning signal sounds.
Your vehicle has a hill‑start assist system.
On uphill grades the hill‑start assist
system maintains the pressure in the brake
system for approximately one second after
you have released the brake pedal.
Therefore, you can start off smoothly
without the vehicle moving immediately
after releasing the brake pedal.
X Release the brake pedal.
X Apply sufficient pressure to the
accelerator pedal to drive off.
On uphill grades with higher inclination,
the hill-start assist system will release
the pressure in the brake system after
approximately two seconds. A warning
signal sounds and the transmission
position indicator shows a flashing N in
order to warn you of the vehicle rolling
backwards.
X Press the brake pedal.
X Release the brake pedal.
X Apply sufficient pressure to the
accelerator pedal to drive off.
i The hill‑start assist system is inactive
if you start off with the parking brake
engaged. Instrument cluster
Charge level and power gauges
0002
Charge level gauge
0003 Power gauge
The gauges can be turned by approximately
90°.
The illumination for both gauges comes on
when you switch on the ignition and the
exterior lighting.
Charge level gauge !
Do not hang any objects on the charge
level gauge.
This could cause the charge level gauge
to be torn from its mountings and be
damaged.
The charge level gauge 0002displays charge
status of the high-voltage battery as a
percentage.
When the High-voltage Battery at Reserve Level message appears in the
multifunction display while the drive
system is in operation, the high-voltage
battery has reached the reserve level.
i If the charge level of the high-voltage
battery has dropped below 20 %, recharge
it at:
R an AC power socket (Y page 112)
R a private wall box (Y page 112)
R a public charging station

WARNING
The operating condition of the high-
voltage battery (e.g. not yet at normal
operating temperature or fully charged)
influences the braking effect of the
electric motor.
In overrun or braking mode, the motor's
braking effect may therefore be reduced or
may not be present at all.
As a result of the reduced engine braking
effect, you may cause an accident and
injure yourself or others.
Compensate for the reduced engine braking
effect by pressing the brake pedal
accordingly, as required.
! Do not hang any objects on the power
gauge.
This could cause the power gauge to be
torn from its mountings and be damaged.
Power gauge 0003contains two segments:
R Section right of 0
Power gauge 0003indicates the current
power that the drive system delivers to
the rear wheels. 100 % correspond to
55 kW peak power.
R Section left of 0
When you release the accelerator pedal
or when you depress the brake pedal, the
electric motor operates as a generator.
Electric current is produced and stored
in the high-voltage battery. As long as
the high-voltage battery is being
charged, the electric motor simulates an
engine brake.
When the pointer of power gauge 0003is in
the "OFF “position, the vehicle is not ready
to drive, because:
R the drive system has not been started
R the gear selector lever has not been
moved to position Nor Pwhen starting
the drive system R
the charging cable is connected to the
vehicle
R there is not enough power from the high-
voltage battery
R a problem occured in the high-voltage
system
After the drive system has been started, the
pointer of power gauge 0003moves to
position 0.READY appears in the
multifunction display (Y page 82). The
vehicle is ready to drive. Adjusting instrument cluster
illumination
You can adjust the illumination of
R the switches and dials in the instrument
cluster
R the radio
R the climate control panel
R the charge level and power gauges
Five illumination levels are available. X
Make sure the key is in starter switch
position 1.
X Switch on the parking lamps.
X To brighten or dim illumination: Press
button 0002on the instrument cluster
repeatedly until the desired setting is
reached.
The current setting is stored. 80
Instrument cluster>> Controls.

By charging the high-voltage battery, the
reduced availability of power can be
improved (Y page 112). ECO indicator
ECO indicator
0002helps you to optimize
your driving style. The energy consumption
of your vehicle can be reduced and the
cruising range can be increased.
The calculated ECO value in percent
indicates if and how your driving style
differs from an ideal driving style (100 %).
This to provide you feedback to:
R your driving style when accelerating and
coasting
R the uniformity of your driving style
After aprolonged standstill of the vehicle,
ECO indicator display 0002always starts at
a value of 50 %.
The ECO-value is displayed:
R while driving
R if the key is in starter switch position
2. In place of the ECO display, battery charge
level 0002and charging time 0003appear , if:
R the high‑voltage battery is being
charged
R the key is in starter switch position 1. Charging mode display
When you switch off the ignition, you see
the display of the charging mode which is
currently set.
The charging mode is not changed after the
ignition has been switched off.
i If the multifunction display has
already gone out, you must turn the key to
starter switch position 1. Afterwards,
you can change the setting in the Charge and Depart menu (Y
page 86).
If you do not make a change, the last
selected entry is activated. If you have not
made any departure time settings in the
last 24 hours, the Instant Charge menu is
activated. Example illustration: Departure time selected
