Setting the timer
Introduction
By setting a timer, you determine when your vehi-
cle should reach the desired charging target.
When the timer is activated, it will be run regu-
larly at the set time. In addition to the charging
target, you can also specify if your vehicle should
be heated or cooled to the temperature set in the
climate control system. You can turn on multiple
timers at the same time. The active timer is indi-
cated by the respective number in © in the upper
section of the display.

VEHICLE > Charging & Efficiency > Charging.
> When the charging target is displayed, swipe
your finger on the display toward the left.
Configuring the timer

EB warning! Hood is not locked. Stop vehicle
and check the lock
The hood latch is not locked correctly. Stop im-
mediately and close the hood.
ZA\ WARNING
— Never open the hood when there is steam or
coolant escaping from the motor compart-
ment, because there is a risk that you could
be burned. Wait until no steam or coolant is
escaping.
— For safety reasons, the hood must always be
latched securely while driving. Because of
this, always check the hood after closing it
to make sure it is latched correctly. The hood
is latched if the front corners cannot be lift-
ed.
— If you notice that the hood is not latched
while you are driving, stop immediately and
close it, because driving when the hood is
not latched increases the risk of an accident.
