WARNING
ARNING Risk of burns from touching the
windscreen when the windscreen heater
is switched on
The windscreen can become very hot when
th e windscreen heater is switched on. The health of persons with limited
temp erature
sensitivity or a limited ability toreact tohigh
te mp eratures may be a.ected or they may
eve n su.er burn-like injuries. #
Do not touch the windscreen while the
windscreen heater is switched on. #
Allow the windscreen tocool down
before touching it. The windscreen heater will be enabled automati-
cally if
¬is activated on the climate bar on the
cent ral displa y.
ATer theve hicle is star ted, the windscreen heater
will be switched on automatically as requ ired.
% Ifth e on-board electrical system voltage is

ARNI NGRisk of burns due torepeatedly
switching on the seat heating
Re peatedly switching on the seat heating can
cause the seat cushion and seat backrest pad-
ding tobecome very hot.
In particular, the health of persons with limited
te mp erature sensitivity or a limited ability to
re act tohigh temp eratures may be a.ected or
th ey may even su.er burn-like injuries. #
Do not repeatedly switch on the seat
heating. To
protect against overheating, the seat heating
may be temp orarily deactivated aTer it has been
switched on repeatedl y.
The air inside theve hicle can be heated, ventila-
te d or cooled tothe set temp erature when the
ve hicle is par ked.
When theve hicle is connected topowe r supply
equipment, priority is given tocharging the high-
vo ltage battery toa speci/ed minimum charge. The
running time of pre-entry clima tecont rol may
be reduced under thefo llowing conditions:
R The vehicle is not connected topowe r supply
equipment.
R The high-voltage battery is not fully charge d.
Wi th active pre-ent ryclimate cont rol,th ech arge
le ve l of the high-voltage battery may be reduced,
ev en if thech arging cable connector is connec-

If present, seat ventilation is activated in cooling
and ventilation mode.
If present, thefo llowing functions are activated in
heating mode:
R Seat heating
R Steering wheel heater
R Mirror heater
R Rear wind owheater
R Windsc reen heater
When the set temp erature is changed, the climate
control mode will automatically be updated. It will
be switched from heating mode toventilation or
cooling mode, from cooling mode toventilation or heating mode or from
ventilation mode toheating
or cooling mode.
Depending on theve hicle's equipment, thefo llo w-

emissions and the acoustic vehicle warning sys-

R The vehicle is equipped with a purely elect ric
drive system and de velops considerably lo wer
ve 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 system (A VAS).
R The sound generator generates speed-depend-
ent vehicle noise emissions when driving
fo rw ard or backing up at a speed of up to
around 30 km/h.
This helps other road users, particular ly
pedest rians and cyclists, tohear your vehicle
better.

This function is an on-demand feature
(/ page 24). The
rear axle steering is an elect romechanical
auxiliary steering on there ar axle which adjusts
th e steering of there ar wheels according tothe
position of the front wheels, depending on the
speed. This results in greater manoeuvrability and
impr oved driving stability, e.g. when cornering.
Re ar axle steering has thefo llowing characteris-
tics:
R reduced steering e.ort and turning circle

If necessar y,yo u can deactivate there strictions
of individual function groups again. This will
re duce the maximum range gain by theva lue
speci/ed forth e function group.
If yo u switch on a deactivated function while
ra nge maximization is activated, all restrictions of
th e cor responding function group will be remo ved
and the maximum range gain will be reduced
accordingl y.Fo rex ample, if you switch on the
seat heating again, all restrictions of the "Seating
comfort" function group will be deactivated.
This does not apply tothe ECO driving functions
gr oup, as thera nge gain in this case depends
mainly on your personal driving style. The activa-
te d ECO driving functions help youto drive in an
energy-e1cient manner. The speci/ed range gain
