or when traffic and/or ambient lighting
conditions require you to do so.
In low ambient lighting conditions, only
switch from position 0002to0002 with the
vehicle at a standstill in a safe location.
Switching from position 0002to0002 will
briefly switch off the headlamps. Doing so
while driving in low ambient lighting
conditions may result in an accident.

WARNING
With the drive system inactive, there is no
power assistance for the brake and steering
systems. In this case, it is important to
keep in mind that a considerably higher
degree of effort is necessary to brake and steer the vehicle
.Adapt your driving
accordingly. G

"Vehicle Homepage". For this reason, make
sure than no unauthorized persons have
access to your personal area.
After selling the vehicle, you are required
to delete the vehicle from your personal
area on the "Vehicle Homepage". You must
also destroy the vehicle verification code
(VVC) documents.
If you have bought a pre-owned vehicle, it
may be possible that the previous owner
still has access to the "Vehicle Homepage".
For this reason, have a new vehicle
verification code (VVC) reissued to you at
an authorized electric drive smart center
after purchase. With this new code you can
set up the access to your vehicle as
described in the "Personal area setup"
section. Here you can also deactivate the
previous owner's access ,should it still be
active.
Calling up the functions of the "Vehicle
Homepage" If the vehicle is registered in your
personal area of the "Vehicle Homepage",
you can, for example, access the following
functions:
R call up the current charge level
R program the departure time
R activate the "Air conditioning before
start" function
When the vehicle is being charged, you can
call up the estimated charging time and the
attainable range. Both results are
estimated values because, for example,
they are influenced by the following
factors:
R outside temperature
R active electrical consumers, e.g. air
conditioning, lights
R personal driving style
R traffic conditions
Plan for a sufficient reserve accordingly. Connecting the vehicle to the Internet
via powerline If you wish to use the "Vehicle Homepage"
at home, your vehicle must be able to access
the Internet
.This is possible via your DSL
router, for example. This connection is
established by means of the inserted
charging cable using powerline
technology.
The vehicle supports powerline
communicatio naccording to the "HomePlug
AV" standard. Data is transmitted via phase
L1 and the neutral conductor of the power
line.
In order for the vehicle to access the
Internet, you require a commercially
available adapter of the "HomePlug AV"
standard. This adapter must also have an
encryption button so that it can be
configured to communicate with the
vehicle. Connect the adapter to the power
supply as well as your Internet connection.
If the adapter is connected to different
phase than L1, a phase coupler must be
additionally installed. Only in this way
can stable communication be guaranteed.
For questions, consult a qualified
electrician.
i If you already have a powerline network
installed, the vehicle can be integrated
into it.
To establish a connection between the
vehicle and a powerline adapter, carry out
the following:
X Connect the vehicle to a power socket or
a wallbox.
The right 0004indicator lamp on the
vehicle socket must flash green.
X Insert the powerline adapter into a
neighboring power socket. Observe that
the vehicle and the adapter are
connected via phase L1.
X Switch on the ignition.
X Call up the Charge current menu on the
control system (Y page 88). High-voltage battery

When doing so, observe that the display
and buttons on control element

WARNING
When connected to a power supply socket, a
high electrical load during the charging
process can lead to overheating of the
external power supply. There is a risk of
fire.
Find out about the maximum permissible
current load of the external power supply
socket for the respective country at an
authorized electric drive smart center.
Check the maximum permissible charge
current on site before you begin the
charging process. Contact an authorized
electric drive smart center should you
require assistance. If necessary, adjust
the settings of your vehicle.
! An excessive charge current can blow a
fuse or lead to overheating of the
external power supply. Check whether the
external power supply is compatible
with the set charge current. If necessary,
lower the set charge current or use
another power socket. 0002
