Starting the charging process of the
high‑voltage battery immediately This function allows you to start the
charging process immediately. The
charging process begins as soon as the
charging cable is connected.
i The charging process also begins when
you insert the charging cable into the
vehicle's power socket. However, this is
only the case if you have not made any
departure time settings.
Information on the chargin gprocess can
be found on (Y page 112).

start" function is not available. Setting the maximum charge current G
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
multifunction display.
X Briefly press the OK button on the control
lever.
X Press and hold the control switch on the
control lever up or down until the
desired amperage is selected.
X Briefly press the OK button on the control
lever.
The selected amperage is set. 88

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*

Cruise control*
The cruise control maintains the speed you
set for your vehicle automatically. On
downhill grades, the cruise control does
not brake the vehicle via the brake system.
The cruise control can only use the braking
power of the engine. You must apply the
brakes yourself in order to reduce the
vehicle speed. The cruise control will then
be canceled. G
WARNING
The cruise control is aconvenience system
designed to assist the driver during
vehicle operation. The cruise control
cannot take road, traffic, and weather
conditions into account. The driver is and
must always remain responsible for the
vehicle’s speed and for safe brake
operation.
Do not use the cruise control
R if the road, traffic, and weather
conditions do not make it advisable to
travel at a constant speed
R on slippery roads
Rapid changes in tire traction can result
in wheel spin and loss of control.
R when driving in fog
The use of the cruise control is
recommended for driving at a constant
speed for extended periods of time.

WARNING
The “Resume” function should only be

Driving systems>> Controls.

Use only charging cables which have been
approved and recommended for the vehicle.
Do not use:
R extension chords
R cable reels
R multiple sockets
R travel adapters
i When possible, only charge the
high‑voltage battery when the charge
level is below 80 %.
It is recommended to charge the
high‑voltage battery prior to reaching
less than 20% state of charge.
Discharged high‑voltage battery When the high‑voltage battery is
completely discharged, the drive system is
switched off. This protects the battery
from exhaustive discharge.
i By switching the ignition off and on
again, the drive system can be briefly
reactivate donce. This allows you to park
the vehicle safely.
Do not allow your vehicle to remain
stationary for more than 14 days with a
discharged, or nearly discharged,
high‑voltage battery. You can check the
charge level with the charge level gauge
(Y page 79).
High or low outside temperatures The efficiency of the high‑voltage battery
is temperature-dependent and decreases
at high or low temperatures .Additionally,
the electrolytes used can gel at very low
temperatures.
You can check the maximum capacity
available using the indicator in the
multifunction display (Y page 83).Energy consumption and range The available energy of the high‑voltage
battery is reduced by:
R
low outside temperatures
R switching on electrical consumers
At low temperatures and after being parked
for an extended period without charging,
the physical properties of the
high‑voltage battery:
R can cause a significant reductio ninthe
performance of the battery
R can lead to longer charging times
In extreme cases, you will not be able to
start the vehicle. For this reason, always
connect the charging cable or make sure the
battery is completely charged when
parking the vehicle in low outside
temperatures or for an extended period of
time.
Due to its physical properties, the
capacity of a high‑voltage battery
decreases over its lifespan.
Thus, the following are reduced:
R the maximum attainable range of the
vehicle
R the maximum performance output
(acceleration) of the vehicle
You can actively contribute to the
reduction of the vehicle's energy
consumption by:
R driving conservatively
R maintaining the vehicle regularly
R decreasing the use of electrical
consumers
Notes on battery care Avoid storing and transporting the vehicle
at high temperatures for extended periods
of time (e. g. container transport).
When out of use for longer periods of time,
connect the vehicle to a voltage supply.
If the vehicle is not connected to
avoltage
supply, it must remain within a High-voltage battery
