Driving and operating1975. Once charging, the DC vehicleplug will be locked to the DC
charge port and cannot be
disconnected while charging is
active.
6. Verify that the charging status indicator illuminates on top of the
instrument panel and a horn chirp occurs.
Charging status 3 204.Caution
Do not attempt to disconnect the
DC vehicle plug while charging is
active. This action may damage vehicle or charging station
hardware.
Stop charging
Controls on the charging station can
be used to stop the charge process at any time. Or press and hold 5 on the
electronic key. This will also unlock
the vehicle plug.
To stop charging when inside the
vehicle, you may use the Stop button
on the Charging screen.
Programmable charging 3 197.
There is also an available mobile app
with several charging functions.
Smartphone remote function 3 26.Automatic power supply cut-off
When the vehicle no longer needs to
use power from the charging station,
the charging process will be stopped.
Use the electronic key to unlock the
DC vehicle plug.
Energy can still be consumed from
the charging station when the
vehicle’s displays and indicators
show that the high voltage battery is
fully charged. This is to ensure the
high voltage battery is in optimal
temperature operating range to
maximise vehicle range.
Programmable charging 3 197.
End charging
1. Wait until the charging process has been fully stopped, the
vehicle plug is unlocked and the
charging status indicator is solid
green or off.
2. Unplug the DC vehicle plug from the DC charge port on the vehicle
and close the dust cover.
3. Close the charge port door by pressing firmly in the centre to
latch properly.
4. Manually disengage the electric parking brake before driving the
vehicle.
5. To start another DC charge, remove the DC vehicle plug and
reconnect.

complete time estimations are also
displayed on the screen. These
estimations are most accurate when
the vehicle is plugged in and in
moderate temperature conditions.
Also, to get an accurate time
estimate, the vehicle uses an internal
clock for programmable charging, not the clock in the instrument panel.

To access the tyre pressure page,
choose vehicle info menu via right
steering wheel buttons and press
{ or } to select tyre pressure.
To reset the system: ● Press and hold 9 until the tyre
pressure monitoring system asks
for a check.
● Press 9 again to confirm. The
vehicle honks twice.
System status and pressure warnings
are displayed by a message
indicating the corresponding tyre in
the Driver Information Centre.
The system considers the tyre
temperature for the warnings.
Temperature dependency 3 232.
A detected low tyre pressure
condition is indicated by the control
indicator w 3 80.
If w illuminates, stop as soon as
possible and inflate the tyres as
recommended 3 254.
After inflating, some driving may be
required to update the tyre pressure
values in the Driver Information
Centre. During this time w may
illuminate.
If w illuminates at lower temperatures
and extinguishes after driving, this
could be an indicator for approaching a low tyre pressure condition. Check
tyre pressure.
Vehicle messages 3 89.
If the tyre pressure must be reduced or increased, switch off vehicle.
Winter tyres or additional wheel sets
must be fitted with sensors, otherwise the system will not work and control
indicator w illuminates continuously.
The tyre pressure monitoring system
malfunction indicator is combined
with the low tyre pressure control
indicator. If the system detects a
malfunction, w will flash for approx.
1 minute and then remain
continuously illuminated. This
sequence will continue upon
subsequent vehicle start-ups as long
as the malfunction exists.
If the malfunction indicator w is
illuminated, the system may not be
able to detect or signal low tyre
pressure as intended. Tyre pressure
monitoring system malfunctions may
occur for a variety of reasons,
including the installation of
replacement or alternate tyres or wheels on the vehicle that prevent the
tyre pressure monitoring system from functioning properly. Always check
the tyre pressure monitoring system
malfunction control indicator w after
replacing one or more tyres or wheels
on your vehicle to ensure that the

Set the rocker switch on the
compressor to I. The tyre is filled
with sealant.
10. The compressor pressure gauge briefly indicates up to 6 bar whilstthe sealant bottle is emptying
(approx. 30 seconds). Then the
pressure starts to drop.
11. All of the sealant is pumped into the tyre. Then the tyre is inflated.
12. The prescribed tyre pressure should be obtained within
10 minutes.
Tyre pressure 3 254.
When the correct pressure is
obtained, switch off the
compressor.If the prescribed tyre pressure is
not obtained within 10 minutes,
remove the tyre repair kit. Move
the vehicle one tyre rotation.
Reattach the tyre repair kit and
continue the filling procedure for
10 minutes. If the prescribed tyre
pressure is still not obtained, the
tyre is too badly damaged. Seek
the assistance of a workshop.
Drain excess tyre pressure with
the button over the pressure indicator.
Do not run the compressor for
longer than 10 minutes.
13. Detach the tyre repair kit. Push catch on bracket to remove
sealant bottle from bracket. Screw
the tyre inflation hose to the free
connection of the sealant bottle.
This prevents sealant from
escaping. Stow tyre repair kit in
load compartment.
14. Remove any excess sealant using a cloth.
15. Take the label indicating maximum permitted speed from
the sealant bottle and affix in the
driver's field of view.
16. Continue driving immediately so that sealant is evenly distributed
in the tyre. After driving approx.
10 km (but no more than
10 minutes), stop and check tyre
pressure. Screw compressor air
hose directly onto tyre valve and
compressor when doing this.
