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

Charging station without charging
communication
You must activate charging stations
without charging communication before
the charging process. This can be done with
an RFID card or a telephone call, for
example. Observe the provider's
instructions at the charging station.
Charging station with charging
communication („Plug&Charge“) You do not have to activate charging
stations with charging communication
before the charging process. This is done
by the vehicle. This function is called
"Plug & Charge". Information is exchanged
between the vehicle and the charging
station via the charging cable for
activation.
This is for:
R mutual authorization of the vehicle and
the charging station
R verification of contract data
R automatic billing of the energy costs
Electronic certificates are used here for
secure exchange of data.
If the verification of contract data is
successful, the charging process is
initiated.
i A preliminary version of the
ISO/IEC 15118 standard is used for
communication between the vehicle and
the charging station. If it is necessary
to update your vehicle, consult an
authorized electric drive smart center.
In order to use "Plug & Charge", you have to
configure the functions of your vehicle on
the "Vehicle Homepage" (Y page 110). For
this you require a "Plug & Charge"
certificate which you receive from your
power company after concluding a suitable
contract. Consult an authorized electric
drive smart center if you have problems with the configuration or have no access to
the Internet.
The charging station offers information on
the availability of electricity and costs.
This information is processed by the
vehicle and is used for an optimum
charging of the high‑voltage battery
(Y
page 117). The energy costs are
automatically calculated after the
charging process is complete.
With your existing electricity contract,
you and others who have access to your
vehicle can charge the costs to your
electricity bill. For this reason, cancel
your existing electricity contract for this
vehicle before you sell it. Delete your
"Plug & Charge" certificate by all means.
i You can delete the certificate from the
vehicle's data on the "Vehicle
Homepage". Pleas econsult an authorized
electric drive smart center if you do not
have access to the Internet.
If the charging station allows the
connected vehicle access to the Internet,
you can call up and change information
pertaining to the vehicle on the "Vehicle
Homepage" (Y page 110).

Warranty.
Tire speed rating
Regardless of the tire speed rating, local
speed limits should be obeyed. Use prudent
driving speeds appropriate to prevailing
conditions. G
WARNING
Even when permitted by law, never operate
a vehicle at speeds greater than the
maximum speed rating of the tires.
Exceeding the maximum speed for which
tires are rated can lead to sudden tire
failure, causing loss of vehicle control and
possibly resulting in an accident and/or
personal injury and possible death, for you
and for others.
Make sure your tires have the required tire
speed rating as specified for your vehicle
in the “Technical data section”
(Y page 210), for example when purchasing
new tires.
For information on how to identify the tire
speed rating on a tire’s sidewall, see “Tire
size designation, load and speed rating”
(Y page 134).
If you are uncertain about the correct
reading of the information given on a
tire’s sidewall, any authorized electric
drive smart center will be glad to assist
you.
i For information on speed ratings for
winter tires, see “All-seaso nand winter
tires” (Y page 135). Winter driving instructions
The most important rule for slippery or icy
roads is to drive sensibly and to avoid
abrupt acceleration, braking and steering
maneuvers. For information on driving with snow
chains*, see “Snow chains*” (Y
page 140).
Road salts and chemicals can adversely
affect braking efficiency. Increased pedal
force may becom enecessary to produce the
normal braking effect.
Depressing the brake pedal periodically
when traveling at length on salt-strewn
roads can bring road-salt-impaired
braking efficiency back to normal.
If the vehicle is parked after being driven
on salt-treated roads, the braking
efficiency should be tested as soon as
possible after driving is resumed. G
WARNING
Make sure not to endanger any other road
users when carrying out these braking
maneuvers. G
WARNING
The outside temperature display is not
designed to serve as an ice-warning device
and is therefore unsuitable for that
purpose. Indicated temperatures just
above the freezing point do not guarantee
that the road surface is free of ice.
For more information, see “Winter driving”
(Y page 140). Standing water
Do not drive through flooded areas or water
of unknown depth. Before driving through
water, determine its depth. Never
accelerate before driving into water.
If you must drive through standing water,
drive slowly to prevent water from entering

Check
Tire Pressure The tire inflation pressure in at least one tire is
significantly below the reference value.
X
Carefully bring the vehicle to a halt, avoiding abrupt
steering and braking maneuvers.
X Check and adjust tire inflation pressure as required
(Y page 124).
X If necessary, change the wheel (Y page 188).G
WARNING
Each tire should be checked monthly when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure
recommended by the vehicle manufacturer on the Tire and Loading Information placard. If
your vehicle has tires of a different size than the size indicated on the Tire and Loading
Information placard, you should determine the proper tire inflation pressure for those
tires.
As an adde dsafety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a tire pressure monitoring
system (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when one or more of your tires
is significantly underinflated.
Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you should stop and check your
tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the proper pressure. Driving on a significantly
underinflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure.
Underinflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle’s
handlin gand stopping ability. Pleas enote that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire 158
