X
If possible, move the vehicle out of the
danger zone: shift the automatic transmis-
sion into position N .X
Release the electric parking brake. X
Roll the vehicle to a safe place and park it
safely.
Get assistance from others if necessary.
The vehicle is locked automatically when the
ignition is switched on and the wheels are turn-
ing. There is therefore a risk of being locked out
if the vehicle is being pushed or tested on a
dynamometer. X
Switch the ignition off. X
Shift the automatic transmission to park posi-
tion P .
Apply the electric parking brake.
Safeguard the vehicle against rolling away
(see the vehicle Operator's Manual). X
To use the high-voltage switch-off device:
open the tailgate. X
Lift the cargo compartment floor upwards
(see the vehicle Operator's Manual). X
Pull off the right-hand paneling in the cargo
compartment.
X
Press release clip C in the direction of the
arrow and pull it out. X
Pull high-voltage switch-off device D apart
until it engages.
If the hybrid drive system has been deactivated
due to reasons mentioned above, have it
checked at a qualified specialist workshop
before reactivation.
High-voltage battery
G WARNING
In the event of a vehicle fire, the internal pres-
sure of the high-voltage battery can exceed a critical value. In this case flammable gas
escapes through a ventilation valve on the
underbody. The gas can ignite. There is a risk
of injury.
Leave the danger zone immediately. Secure
the danger area at a suitable distance, whilst
observing legal requirements.
G WARNING
If the housing of the high-voltage battery has
been damaged, electrolyte and gases may
leak out. These are poisonous and caustic.
There is a risk of injury.
Avoid contact with skin, eyes or clothing.
Immediately rinse electrolyte splashes off
with water and seek medical attention
straight away.
! Exhaustive discharge caused by the vehicle
standing idle for lengthy periods can damage
the high-voltage battery. If the vehicle is idle
for lengthy periods leave the high-voltage bat-
tery connected to a charging station.
Charging the high-voltage battery ( Y
page 29).
Engine compartment Before opening the hood: X
Apply the electric parking brake. X
Shift the transmission to position P .X
Switch the ignition off. X
Observe the warning notes on the risk of elec-
tric shock ( Y
page 10). X
Observe the warning notes on the hood (see
the vehicle Operator's Manual).
RBS driving safety system (Recupera-
tive Brake System) The Recuperative Brake System supports you
when braking with an electronically-controlled
brake boost mode and enables the recovery of
kinetic energy (recuperation).

Braking System ( Y

Safety Z

Coolant temperature gauge
G WARNING
Opening the hood when the engine is over-
heated or when there is a fire in the engine
compartment could expose you to hot gases
or other service products. There is a risk of
injury.
Let an overheated engine cool down before
opening the hood. If there is a fire in the
engine compartment, keep the hood closed
and contact the fire department.
! A display message is shown if the coolant
temperature is too high.
If the coolant temperature is over 248 ‡
(120 †), do not continue driving. The engine
will otherwise be damaged.
The multifunction display shows the coolant
temperature in the Coolant submenu.
Under normal operating conditions and with the
specified coolant level, the coolant temperature
may rise to 248 ‡ (120 †).
