Influences on the charging behavior
and the charge state of the high-volt-
age battery
Terms of use Observe the following notes:
R information on exceptions and limitations in
warranty documentation and in the related
Maintenance Booklet
R maintenance notes for the high-voltage bat-
tery in the Maintenance Booklet
Method of operation The vehicle is equipped with a high-voltage bat-
tery for driving. The high-voltage battery stores
the energy needed to operate the electric motor and releases it again.
The electric motor uses energy that has been
stored in the high-voltage battery when pulling
away, accelerating and during the journey.
In overrun mode (except D+), kinetic energy is
converted by means of energy recuperation into
electrical energy and stored in the high-voltage
battery.
The high-voltage battery can be charged as fol-
lows:
R through energy recuperation while the vehicle
is in motion
R with the charging cable at a mains socket
while the vehicle is stationary
R with the charging cable at a charging station
while the vehicle is stationary
The high-voltage battery can be charged using a
single-phase charging cable in a voltage range
from 100 V to 240 V.
If the condition of charge drops to less than 13%, the high-voltage battery reserve indicator lamp
lights up in the instrument cluster. Charge the
high-voltage battery as soon as possible.
Below a condition of charge of 5%, the perform-
ance of the vehicle is reduced. The vehicle's
high-voltage electrical system switches off at a
condition of charge of 0%.
Use of the pre-entry climate control function
may mean that the high-voltage battery is not
fully charged. High and low outside temperatures Low outside temperatures
The efficiency of the high-voltage battery is sig-
nificantly reduced at very low outside tempera-
tures. The high-voltage battery is then no longer able to provide the normal electrical power out-
put.
High outside temperatures
To prevent damage to the high-voltage battery
due to very high outside temperatures, the max- imum power output of the high-voltage battery
is reduced automatically.
The E-CELL display indicates the maximum
amount of power available (Y page 152).
Notes on battery care Avoid storing or transporting the vehicle in high
temperatures over a long period (e.g. container
transport).
If you park the vehicle and leave it stationary for
longer periods, connect it to a power supply.
Temperatures below 00F813 ‡ (00F825 †) and over
104 ‡ (40 †), which affect the vehicle for a
period of more than seven days, can cause irre- versible damage.
Discharged battery The vehicle's high-voltage electrical system
switches off if the high-voltage battery is com-
pletely discharged. 30 seconds prior to this, you
are informed of the switch-off by the Battery

It is not possible to restart the drive system until after charging.
Do not leave the vehicle parked for longer than
14 days with a high-voltage battery condition of
charge below 20%.
You can check the condition of charge in the
charge level display (Y page 153).

Releasing automatically
Your vehicle's electric parking brake is auto-
matically released if all of the following condi-
tions are met:
R the vehicle has been started.
R the transmission is in position Dor R.
R the seat belt has been fastened.
R you depress the accelerator pedal.
If the transmission is in position R, the tailgate
must be closed.
If your seat belt is not fastened, the following
conditions must be fulfilled to automatically
release the electric parking brake:
R the driver's door is closed.
R you have shifted out of transmission position
P or you have previously driven faster than
2 mph (3 km/h).
Ensure that you do not depress the accelerator
pedal unintentionally. Otherwise the parking
brake will be released and the vehicle will start
to move.
Emergency braking The vehicle can also be braked during an emer-
gency by using the electric parking brake.
X While driving, push handle 0043of the electric
parking brake (Y page 130).
The vehicle is braked as long as you keep
handle 0043of the electric parking brake
pressed. The longer the electric parking brake
handle 0043is depressed, the greater the brak-
ing force.
During braking: R a warning tone sounds
R the Release parking brake
Release parking brake message
appears
R the red 0049(USA only) or 0024(Canada
only) indicator lamp in the instrument cluster
flashes
When the vehicle has been braked to a stand-
still, the electric parking brake is applied. Parking the vehicle for a long period
If you leave the vehicle parked for longer than
four weeks, the battery may be damaged by
exhaustive discharging. If you leave the vehicle parked for longer than six
weeks, the vehicle may suffer damage as a
result of lack of use.
X Visit a qualified specialist workshop and seek
advice.

Important safety notes G
WARNING
If you switch off the ignition while driving,
safety-relevant functions are only available
with limitations, or not at all. This could affect, for example, the power steering and the brake
boosting effect. You will require considerably
more effort to steer and brake. There is a risk of an accident.
Do not switch off the ignition while driving. G
WARNING
If you operate mobile communication equip-
ment while driving, you will be distracted from traffic conditions. You could also lose controlof the vehicle. There is a risk of an accident.
Only operate this equipment when the vehicleis stationary.
Observe the legal requirements for the country
in which you are driving. Some jurisdictions pro- hibit the driver from using a mobile phone while
driving a vehicle.
If you make a call while driving, always use
hands-free mode. Only operate the telephone
when the traffic situation permits. If you are
unsure, pull over to a safe location and stop
before operating the telephone.
Bear in mind that at a speed of only 30 mph
(approximately 50 km/h), the vehicle covers a
distance of 44 ft (approximately 14 m)per sec-
ond. Driving tips
