!
If the charge current is too high, the fuse
could be tripped or the external mains supply could overheat. Check if the external mains
supply is equipped to handle the programmed charge current. If necessary, reduce the pro-
grammed charge current or use a different
mains socket.
Before starting the charging process at a power
socket, check the maximum permissible charge current for the relevant power socket or the
building.
You can set the maximum permissible charge
current
R on the charging cable controls (only charging
cable variant 1)
R in the Settings Settings menu of the on-board com-
puter (Y page 292).
The lower value of the two charge current set-
tings – on the charge cable controls and in the
on-board computer – determines the maximum
charge current. If you cannot set the precise
maximum permitted charge current, select the
next lowest available value.
Only set the maximum permitted charge current
in the on-board computer menu if:
R it is not possible to set the charge current on
the charging cable
R the precise maximum permitted charge cur-
rent can only be set via the on-board com-
puter.
Setting the maximum permitted charge current on the charging cable of variant 1 is described
below.
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 cur-
rently 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 cur-
rent.
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.

If manual gearshifting is deactivated, the auto-
matic transmission shifts:
R into the drive program that was last selected,
and
R into the driving mode that was last selected
If you change the drive program, the operating
mode that was last selected is stored for approx-
imately 60 seconds. After this time, the HYBRID
operating mode is automatically activated.
Operating the on-board computer You can display the current operating condition
of the hybrid drive system in the multifunction
display and the multimedia system in the form of
an energy flow display (Y page 263).
In the display of the multimedia system, you can

sumption and generated electricity

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 cur- rently provide.
Noiseless start operation is dependent on the
outside temperature and the operating temper-
ature of the internal combustion engine. If not all
conditions for noiseless start operation are ful-
filled, the vehicle starts with the internal com-
bustion engine. 266
