Reset the building's circuit breaker. Other-
wise, the charging process cannot be contin- ued.
General information on the charging
process Observe the "Important safety notes"
(Y page 210).
The vehicle socket is located in the rear
bumper on the right below the tail lamp.
The charge socket flap and the vehicle are
centrally locked or unlocked simultaneously. Charging the high-voltage battery via
the mains socket
Charging cable for mains sockets Important safety notes
! Only use the charging cable to charge the
high-voltage battery. Do not use the charg-
ing cable for other purposes. It may other-
wise be damaged.
The vehicle is supplied with a charging cable
for connection to a mains socket. Only use
the charging cable supplied with the vehicle
or a charging cable approved for the vehicle.
i The charging process can vary depending
on the mains power supply. Therefore,
always observe the local information.
i For short charge times (charging with 16
A), connect the fast-charging cable to the
wallbox or charging station. You can also
use the optionally available charging cable
with the CE plug.
Information about charging from a wallbox
can be found at (Y page 216).
Information about charging at a charging sta-
tion can be found at (Y page 217).
Stowing the charging cable
The charging cable can be stowed in the bag
supplied in the luggage compartment of the vehicle and held in place with the Velcro fas-
tener.

Setting the maximum charge current G
WARNING
If the charge current draw via a mains socket is too high during the charging process, the
external mains supply may overheat. There is a risk of fire.
Before charging, check the maximum permis-
sible charge current available at the location.
If necessary, contact a qualified specialist
company for assistance.
Adjust your vehicle's settings, if necessary.
! If the charge current is too high, the fuse
could be tripped or the external mains sup-
ply could overheat. Check if the external
mains supply is equipped to handle the pro- grammed charge current. If necessary,
reduce the programmed charge current or
use a different mains socket.
You can set a limit for the values of the charge
current used in charging the high-voltage bat- tery. This acts as a means of preventing the
mains supply from overloading. You can set
this limit by using the controls on the charging
cable or in the on-board computer's menu.
Only set the maximum charge current in the
on-board computer menu if there are no
charge current settings on the charging
cable.
The default value in the vehicle corresponds
to the maximum charge value.
The default value on the charging cable is the
minimum setting. This corresponds to the minimum available charge current from the
mains supply. The value on the charging cable
can be increased and is described below.
i The value of the maximum setting and the
adjustment value may vary depending on
the country.
Before charging the high-voltage battery,
check the maximum permissible charge cur-
rent for the relevant power socket.
X To adjust the setting: press button?
repeatedly until the desired setting is selec- ted in display =.
R Two LEDs are flashing: minimum setting
R All LEDs are flashing: maximum setting
If, after the charging process, the charging
cable is:
R left connected to the power socket, the
currently selected values will be used for
the next charging process.
R removed from the power socket, the values
will be reset to the minimum setting for the next charging process. You may then need
to reset the values of the maximum charge current.
i If the vehicle requires more time than
usual when charging, check the maximum
charge current settings using the controls
on the charging cable or in the on-board
computer's menu.

time, the driver has adopted the most eco-
nomical driving style for the selected settings
and prevailing conditions. The ECO display
border lights up.
The ECO display does not indicate the actual fuel consumption. The additionally achieved
range displayed under Bonus fr. start
Bonus fr. start
does not indicate a fixed consumption reduc-
tion.
In addition to driving style, the actual con-
sumption is affected by other factors, such
as:
R load
R tyre pressure
R cold start
R choice of route
R the use of electrical consumers
These factors are not included in the ECO dis-
play.
An economical driving style involves driving at a moderate engine speed.
To achieve a higher value in the categories
"acceleration" and "smooth driving":
R observe the gearshift recommendation
R drive the vehicle in drive program E
On long journeys at a constant speed, e.g. on the motorway, only the outer area for "con-
stant" will change.
The ECO display summarises the driving style
from the start of the journey to its completion. Therefore, there are more marked changes in
the outer areas at the start of a journey. Dur- ing a prolonged driving time, these changes
are smaller. For more marked changes, per-
form a manual reset (Y page 319).

Important safety notes G
WARNING
If you shift down on a slippery road surface in an attempt to increase the engine's braking
effect, the drive wheels could lose their grip.
This increases the risk of skidding and having
an accident.
Do not shift down for additional engine brak-
ing on a slippery road surface.
Downhill gradients Change into a lower gear in good time on long
and steep downhill gradients. Take particular note of this when driving a laden vehicle and
when towing a trailer.
This also applies if cruise control, DISTRONIC
PLUS or SPEEDTRONIC are activated.
This will use the braking effect of the engine,
so less braking will be required to maintain
vehicle speed. This relieves the load on the
brake system and prevents the brakes from
overheating and wearing too quickly.
Heavy and light loads G
WARNING
The braking system can overheat if you leave your foot on the brake pedal while driving.
This increases the braking distance and could
even cause the braking system to fail. There is
a risk of an accident.
Never use the brake pedal as a footrest. Do
not simultaneously depress both the brake
pedal and the accelerator pedal while driving.
! Depressing the brake pedal constantly
results in excessive and premature wear to
the brake pads.
If heavy demands are made on the brakes, do not park the vehicle immediately. Drive on for
a short while. This allows the airflow to cool
the brakes more quickly. 224

The vehicle starts in electric mode without the
internal combustion engine (noiseless start).
The internal combustion engine starts only
after the power demanded by the driver
exceeds the available power that the electric
motor can currently provide.
Noiseless start operation is dependent on the
outside temperature and the operating tem-
perature of the internal combustion engine. If
not all conditions for noiseless start operation are fulfilled, the vehicle starts with the inter-
nal combustion engine. X
