2016 MERCEDES-BENZ GLE-Class Ecu fuse

If the charging cable or charging cable connec-
tor become too hot, have the mains power sup-
ply checked.
Protection device against overvoltage
!Overvoltage in the mains supply may dam-
age the vehicle. For this reason, the vehicle is equipped with a protection device against
overvoltage in the mains supply. This device
may be triggered during severe thunder-
storms, for example, and may lead to the buil-
ding's fuse being tripped and an interruption
in the power supply. These functions protect
the vehicle. After the building fuse is switched
on again, the charging process resumes auto-
matically. Following an interruption in the
power supply or tripping of the building's fuse,
it may take up to 10 minutes for charging to
resume automatically.
Switch on the building protection system again
after it has been triggered. Otherwise, the
charging process cannot be continued.
General information about the charging
procedure
Pay attention to the "Important safety notes"
(Ypage 169).
The vehicle socket is located in the rear bumper
on the right below the tail lamp.
The charge socket flap and the vehicle are cen-
trally locked or unlocked simultaneously.

Important safety notes
!Only use the charging cable to charge the
high-voltage battery. Do not use the charging
cable for other purposes. It may otherwise be
damaged.
The vehicle is supplied with a country-specific
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.
iIf you use the supplied 12 A charging cable
to charge a high-voltage battery:
Rthe charge time increases considerably
Relectrical consumption increases consider-
ably
Where possible, charge the high-voltage bat-
tery at a charging station (
Ypage 175). Only
then can certified electrical energy consump-
tion levels be reached.
iThe charging process can vary depending on
the power supply. Therefore, always observe
the local information.

iWhen you change lanes, DISTRONIC PLUS
monitors the left lane on left-hand-drive vehi-
cles or the right lane on right-hand-drive vehi-
cles.
Stopping
GWARNING
When leaving the vehicle, even if it is braked
only by DISTRONIC PLUS, it could roll away if:
Rthere is a malfunction in the system or in
the voltage supply.
RDISTRONIC PLUS has been deactivated
with the cruise control lever, e.g. by a vehi-
cle occupant or from outside the vehicle.

Fuses
Important safety notes
GWARNING
If you manipulate or bridge a faulty fuse or if
you replace it with a fuse with a higher amper- age, the electric cables could be overloaded.
This could result in a fire. There is a risk of an
accident and injury.
Always replace faulty fuses with the specified
new fuses having the correct amperage.
!For the fuse boxes in the engine compart-
ment and under the rear bench seat, only use
fuses with the suffix "S". Otherwise, compo-
nents or systems could be damaged.
The fuses in your vehicle serve to close down
faulty circuits. If a fuse blows, all the compo-
nents on the circuit and their functions stop
operating.
Blown fuses must be replaced with fuses of the
same rating, which you can recognize by the
color and value. The fuse ratings are listed in the fuse allocation chart.
The fuse allocation chart is located in the fuse
box under the rear bench seat (
Ypage 385).
If a newly inserted fuse also blows, have the
cause traced and rectified at a qualified special-
ist workshop, e.g. an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center.
Before changing a fuse
