WARNING
Make sure absolutely no objects are
obstructing the pedals’ range of motion.
Keep the driver’s footwell clear of all
obstacles. If there are any floormats* or
carpets in the footwell, make sure the ped-
als still have sufficient clearance.
During sudden acceleration or braking
maneuvers, the objects could get caught
between or beneath the pedals and restrict
your ability to brake or accelerate. This
could lead to accidents and/or injury. G
WARNING
A vehicle with an electric motor produces
significantly lower noise levels than a
vehicle with a combustion engine. Other
motorists or pedestrians, especially those
who are visually or hearing impaired, may
be unable to hear your vehicle while it is
in motion. This is particularly true when
driving at lower speeds and during parking
maneuvers. At all times, it is the respon-
sibility of the driver to be aware of their
surroundings, especially in these low
speed situations. Otherwise other road
users could be seriously or fatally injured.
Vehicles equipped with an Acoustic Vehi-
cle Indication* emit a certain noise. Thus,
your vehicle will be better noticed by other
road users at low speeds (Y page 48).

WARNING
Getting out of your vehicle with the trans-
mission not fully engaged in park position
P is dangerous. When the drive system is
switched off and the brakes are released,
the vehicle can be moved freely with the
gear selector lever in all positions except
park position P. Also, when parked on an
incline, park position Palone may not pre-
vent your vehicle from moving, possibly
hitting people or objects. Always engage the parking brake in addi-
tion to shifting to park position
P.
When parked on an incline, always turn the
front wheels towards the curb. G
WARNING
When leaving the vehicle, always remove the
key from the starter switch, take it with
you, and lock the vehicle. Do not leave chil-
dren unattended in the vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle. Children
could release the parking brake and/or
move the gear selector lever from park
position P, either of which could result in
an accident and/or serious personal
injury.
Brake pedal The brake pedal has two brake circuits
independent of each other. When the igni-
tion is switched on, a brake servo is used
during braking to increase pedal force.
G
WARNING
Make sure absolutely no objects are
obstructing the pedals’ range of motion.
Keep the driver’s footwell clear of all
obstacles. If there are any floormats* or
carpets in the footwell, make sure the ped-
als still have sufficient clearance.
During sudden acceleration or braking
maneuvers, the objects could get caught
between or beneath the pedals and restrict
your ability to brake or accelerate. This
could lead to accidents and/or injury. G
WARNING
Considerably more effort will be required
to apply the brakes if
R the brake servo has failed
R a brake circuit has failed
R the ignition is switched off, e.g. for tow-
ing the vehicle
The braking distance is likewise greater. 78
Driving and parking>> Controls.
* optional

Make sure the drive system is active when-
ever the vehicle is rolling. Have the brake
system repaired at an authorized electric
drive smart center, if there is a fault in the
brake system. If a brake circuit has failed (Y
page 167),
you must depress brake pedal 0043further
down to achieve the same effect and the
braking distance is increased.
i The brake servo will only function with
the ignition switched on. Switching off the drive system

keep in mind that a considerably higher
degree of effort is necessary to brake and
steer the vehicle.
