Have theve hicle checked and repaired
immediately at a qualified specialist

If driving saf ety is impaired while con‐
tinuing your journe y,pull over and stop
th eve hicle immediately in accordance
with the traf fic conditions, and contact

DANG ER Risk of fata l injury bytouching
damaged high-voltage co mponents
The vehicle's high-voltage on-board electrical
sy stem is under high voltage. If you modify
co mp onent parts in theve hicle's high-volt‐
age on-board electrical sy stem or touch dam‐
aged co mponent parts, you may be electro‐
cuted. The co
mponent parts in theve hicle's high-
vo ltage on-board elect rical sy stem may be
damaged in an accident, although the dam‐
age is not visible. #
Never car ryout changes on the high-
vo ltage on-board elect rical sy stem. #
Neverto uch co mponent parts in the
high-voltage on-board electrical sy stem. #
After an accident, do not touch any
high-voltage co mponents. #
After an accident, ha vetheve hicle

Have the high-voltage on-board electri‐
cal sy stem checked at a qualified spe‐
cialist workshop. The components of
the high-voltage on-board
electrical sy stem are mar ked with yellow warn‐
ing sticke rs. The cables of the high-voltage on-
board electrical sy stem are orange. Ve
hicles with an electric mo torge nerate signi fi‐
cantly less vehicle noise emissions than vehicles
with combustion engines. As a result, your vehi‐
cle may not be heard by otherroad users in cer‐
ta in situations. This can happen, forex ample,
when you are parking and your vehicle is not
seen by otherroad users. This requiresyouto
adopt a particular lyanticipatory driving style, as
it is necessary toallow forth e possibility that
ot her road users may beha veunpredic tably. 20

WARNING Risk ofchemical burns and
poisoning from damaged high-voltage
battery
If th e housing of the high-voltage battery has
been damaged, electrolyte and gases may
leak out. #
Avoid contact with the skin, eyes or
clo thing. #
Immediately rinse electrolyte splashes
off with water and seek medical atten‐
tion stra ight away. &
DANG ER Risk of explosion from exces‐
sive internal pressure of the high-voltage
battery
In theev ent of a vehicle fire ,th e internal
pressure of the high-voltage battery could
exc eed a critical value. In this case, flamma‐
ble gas escapes thro ugh a bleed valve in the
ve hicle's underbody. The
gas can ignite. #
Stop thech arging process immediately

vethefo llowing no tes on vehicle noise
emissions and the acoustic vehicle warning sys‐
te m:
R theve hicle is equipped with a purely electric
drive sy stem and de velops considerably
lo we rve hicle noise emissions than vehicles
with a combustion engine.
It is forth is reason that theve hicle is equip‐
ped with a sound generator, which ser ves as
an acoustic vehicle warning sy stem (A VAS).
R the sound generator generates speed-
dependent vehicle noise emissions when
driving forw ard and backing up at a speed of
up toaround 30 km/h. th
is helps other road users, particular ly
pede strians and bike riders, tohear your
ve hicle better.
R theve hicle acoustic warning sy stem gradu‐
ally switches off when driving at speeds
abo ve20 km/h.
R despite the sound generator, theve hicle still
may not be heard by otherroad users. Adapt
yo ur driving style accordingly.
R the sound generator is off when theve hicle
is stationar y. Manual disconnection of
