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

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

Control system>> Controls.

This is useful:
R
if you wish to cool the interior of the
vehicle before driving
R if you wish to charge the vehicle at a
charging station/wallbox at the most
inexpensive electricity rate
With the "Air conditioning before start"
function, the vehicle interior is cooled
prior to a desired departure time.
Prerequisites:
R The doors and tailgate are closed.
R The charging cable for the high‑voltage
battery is connected to a power source
and inserted into the vehicle's power
socket.
R The high‑voltage battery has a
sufficient charge.
The maximum duration of "Air
conditioning before start" is 30 minutes.
Set the air distribution of your vehicle as
follows so that the "Air conditioning
before start" function has the greatest
effect:
R in summer, to the center and side vents
R in winter, onto the windshield and side
windows
Information on air distribution can be
found on (Y page 98).
The setting of the airflow regulator has no
influence on the "Air conditioning before
start" function.
i If the programmed time is too short, the
high‑voltage battery cannot be
completely charged. After setting the
departure time, the maximum charge
level which can be reached is then shown.
i If the high‑voltage battery is not
sufficiently charged and the "Air
conditioning before start" function is
activated, the high‑voltage battery is
charged first. When acharge level of at
least 20 % has been reached, the "Air
conditioning before start" function is
activated. This function then has priority over the charging of the
high‑voltage battery.

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.
You can limit the charge current of the
high‑voltage battery. This can protect the
power supply from overloading. You can set
the limit either on the control unit of the
charging cable or via the control system.
The preset standard value is "Max". This
corresponds to the maximum available
charge current of the power supply.
Check the maximum permissible charge
current for the respective power supply
socket before charging the high‑voltage
battery.
The following values are available for
selection: 8 A, 10 A, 12 A, Max. The last value
set remains stored until a chang eis made.
X Press and hold the control switch on the
control lever up or down until the
Charge Current menu appears in the

You can also set the maximum charge
current via the control element on the
charging cable (Y page 113).
If differing values are set on the
charging cable and the control system,
the high‑voltage battery is charged
using the lowest value.
i If the vehicle needs more time to charge
the high‑voltage battery than usual,
check the settings of the maximum
permissible charge current. Messages menu

WARNING
In order to avoid distraction which could
lead to an accident, the driver should enter
system settings with the vehicle at a
standstill and operate the system only when
road and traffic conditions permit. Always
pay full attention to traffic conditions
first before operating system controls
while driving.
Bear in mind that at a speed of just 30 mph
(approximately 50 km/h), your vehicle is
covering adistance of 44 feet
(approximately 14 m) every second. G
WARNING
Always select a volume that allows you to
still hear ambient sound in your immediate
vicinity (e.g. horns, emergency rescue
vehicles, police vehicles, etc.). You could
otherwise cause an accident. G
WARNING
If you wish to have an audio system other
than an original smart audio system fitted
in your vehicle, please always have the
necessary work performed at an authorized
smart center.
This is particularly important if your
vehicle is fitted with a radio
preinstallation. Improper connection can
result in the failure of important vehicle
functions, thereby endangering the
operating safety of your vehicle and thus
your own safety and that of other people. Audio system*
