Yo u should bear thefo llowing in mind:
R Do not exceed the permissible roof load and

data in the printed Owner's Manual.
R Evenly distribute thero of load, and place
heavy objects at the bottom. Also comply with

TE High-voltage battery damage due to
leaving theve hicle idle for lengt hyperiods
of time Lithium-ion batteries
experience a natural self-
dischar ge.
Exhausti vedischarging can therefore occur if

TE Accelerated ageing of the high-volt-
age battery due tonot observing thefo l-
lowing recommendations As a
result of its basic characteristics, the
storage capacity of and the amount of energy
av ailable from the high-voltage battery decrease
over the course of its life. As a
re sult, the maximum electrical range that can
be achie vedby theve hicle is reduced and its
maximum electrical output can be impaired.
The following factors could accelerate the age-
ing of the high-voltage batter y:
R a high le vel of charge , especially if the
ve hicle is idle for a lengt hyperiod of time
R leaving theve hicle idle for lengt hyperiods
at high ambient temp eratures #
Toavo id accelerated ageing, please
obser vethefo llowing recommendations
when handling the high-voltage batter y. Re
commendations when handling the high-voltage
batter y:
R If leaving theve hicle idle for lengt hyperiods,
park up theve hicle with a high- voltage battery
ch arge leve l between 30% and 50%. Do not
ke ep the high-voltage battery continuously
connected topowe r supply equipment. R
If leaving theve hicle idle for lengt hyperiods of
time avoid, if possible, high ambient temp era-
tures.
R Check the high-voltage battery's charge level
ev ery six weeks (/ page 207).
R Char gethe high-voltage battery if thech arge
le ve l is below 20%.
R Do not disconnect the 12 V battery even if the
ve hicle is leT idle for a lengt hyperiod. Other-
wise, the condition of theve hicle's high- volt-
age battery cannot be monitored.
Yo u can contribute toreducing theve hicle's
ene rgy consum ption in thefo llowing ways:
R An anticipatory driving style (/ page 175)
R Reduced use of electrical consumers
R Having theve hicle regula rly main tained
