ARNING Risk ofchemical burns and poi-
soning 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. #
Immediate lyrinse electrolyte splashes
o. with water and seek medical atten-
tion straight away. &

AN GER
GER Risk of /re and explosion from
ex cessive internal pressure of the high-
vo ltage battery
In theeve nt of a vehicle /re, 0ammable gas
can escape and ignite. #
Stop thech arging process immediately
in case of unusual odours, smoke or
burn mar ks. #
Leavethe danger zone immediatel y.
Secure the danger zone at a su1cient
distance. #
Call the /re service. The
hybrid system combines a combustion engine
with electric mo tors. In drive prog ram A, the
hy brid system selects the most suitable drive type
according tothe driving conditions and the dis-
ta nce.
Cha racteristics when theve hicle is at a standstill:
R The combustion engine is generally switched
o..
R Idle speed only occurs in cer tain instances.
Characteristics when starting theve hicle:
R Ifth e high-voltage battery is su1ciently
ch arge d, theve hicle can be star ted with the
electric drive without the combustion engine
(noiseless start). R
Ifth e high-voltage battery forth e electric drive
is not su1ciently charge d or theve hicle condi-
tions for a silent start are not met, theve hicle
starts with the combustion engine.
% Depending on the system, it may happen that
ev en though the high-voltage battery is
ch arge d, electric mode has restric ted or no
av ailabilit y.Once the combustion engine has
been operated for long enough and ambient
conditions permit, electric mode is again
av ailable without restriction.
Charac teristics wi thmoderate po wer output
re qu ests:
R The combustion engine is switched o. as
oTen as possible during the journe y.
R The vehicle can, depending on the drive pro-
gr am selected and the state of charge , be
accelerated elect rically up tospeeds of
appr oximately 130 km/h. ATer that, the com-
bustion engine is switched on. Driving and parking
