), the

vehicle uses the map and camera data of Traffic

Sign Assist in addition to the Active Brake Assist

sensors. The rate of recuperation is then auto-

matically adjusted to the current traffic situa-

tion, taking the current and future maximum

speed into account.

High-voltage battery

Important safety notes

DANGER

The vehicle's high-voltage electrical system is

under high voltage. If you modify components

in the vehicle's high-voltage electrical system

or touch damaged components, you may be

electrocuted. The components in the vehi-

cle's high-voltage electrical system may be

damaged in an accident, although the damage

is not visible. There is a risk of fatal injury.

Following an accident, do not touch any high-

voltage components and never modify the

vehicle's high-voltage electrical system. Have

the vehicle towed away after an accident and

the vehicle's high-voltage electrical system

checked by a qualified specialist workshop.

WARNING

In the event of a vehicle fire, the internal pres-

sure of the high-voltage battery can exceed a

critical value. In this case flammable gas

escapes through a ventilation valve on the

underbody. The gas can ignite. There is a risk

of injury.

Leave the danger zone immediately. Secure

the danger area at a suitable distance, whilst

observing legal requirements.

DANGER

Connecting the charging cable to the mains

supply via incorrectly installed mains sockets

or by means of adapters, extension cables or

similar could cause a fire or an electric shock.

There is a risk of fatal injury.

To avoid hazardous situations, observe the

following:

Only connect the charging cable to mains

sockets:

which have been properly installed and

which have been inspected by a qualified

electrician

For safety reasons, only use the charging

cables supplied with the vehicle, or charg-

ing cables which have been approved for

use with this vehicle.

Never use a damaged charging cable.

Do not use:

extension cables

extension reels

multiple sockets

Never use socket adapters to connect the

charging cable to the mains socket. The

only exception being if the adapter has

been tested and approved by the manufac-

turer for charging the high-voltage battery

of an electric vehicle.

Observe the safety notes in the operating

instructions for the socket adapter.

DANGER

Connecting the charging cable to the wallbox

via an incorrectly installed wallbox or adapter,

extension cable or similar could cause a fire or

an electric shock. There is a risk of fatal injury.

To avoid hazardous situations, observe the

following:

Only connect the charging cable to a wall-

box that:

is installed correctly and

has been inspected by a qualified elec-

trician

For safety reasons, only use charging

cables that have been tested and approved

by the manufacturer for charging the high-

voltage battery in an electric vehicle.

High-voltage battery

Driving and parking

Never use damaged charging cables.

Do not extend the charging cable.

Do not use an adapter.

Always observe the safety notes in the wall-

box's operating instructions.

The vehicle's high voltage electrical system is

under high voltage.

Do not handle high-voltage components or

the orange cables of the vehicle's high-volt-

age electrical system.

Do not touch high-voltage components or the

orange cables of the high-voltage electrical

system when a vehicle has been involved in a

crash.

Do not touch any damaged components or

damaged orange cables of the vehicle's high-

voltage electrical system.

Do not remove the covers of the high-voltage

electrical system components that are

marked with a warning sticker.

Notes on the charging cable

Handling the charging cable and charg-

ing cable controls

Do not leave the charging cable controls

(Y page 123) hanging loose from an electrical

outlet. Otherwise, this could result in a poor

contact with the electrical outlet and malfunc-

tions when charging the vehicle.

To ensure that the brackets within the charging

cable controls are not subjected to incorrect

loads, observe the following:

Never lift or carry the controls by the charging

cable connector or the mains plug.

To transport the charging cable, the coiled

part can be:

wrapped around the controls or

secured to the housing of the controls

Heat generated by the charging cable

and charging cable connector

Pay attention to the important safety notes

(Y page 117).

During the charging process, the charging cable

and charging cable connector may heat up.

The charging cable and charging cable connec-

tor will only heat up within the permissible lim-

iting values, provided that:

the power supply and the charging cable are

not damaged

the instructions for handling the charging

cable and controls on the charging cable are

observed

Should the permissible heating temperature lim-

its be exceeded, have the mains power supply

checked.

Electrical fuse against overvoltage

Voltage surges in the mains supply can dam-

age the vehicle. The vehicle is therefore

equipped with a device which protects it from

voltage surges in the mains supply. This

device may be triggered during severe thun-

derstorms, for example, and may lead to the

building's fuse being tripped and an interrup-

tion in the power supply. These functions pro-

tect the vehicle. After the building fuse is

switched on again, the charging process

resumes automatically. Following an interrup-

tion in the power supply without tripping of

the building's fuse, it may take up to

15 minutes for charging to resume automat-

ically.

Switch on the building's fuse again after the

electrical fuse against overvoltage has been

tripped. Otherwise, the charging process cannot

be continued. The high-voltage battery will not

be charged and you may not be able to drive the

vehicle.

If other devices are protected by the same pro-

tective device, these are switched off as well

when the protective device is triggered. Ensure

that these other devices are still operational

after reactivating the protection device.

Influences on the charging behavior

and the charge state of the high-volt-

age battery

Observe the following notes:

information on exceptions and limitations in

warranty documentation and in the related

Maintenance Booklet

maintenance notes for the high-voltage bat-

tery in the Maintenance Booklet

Method of operation

The vehicle is equipped with a high-voltage bat-

tery for driving. The high-voltage battery stores

the energy needed to operate the electric motor

and releases it again.

The electric motor uses energy that has been

stored in the high-voltage battery when pulling

away, accelerating and during the journey.

In overrun mode (except D+), kinetic energy is

converted by means of energy recuperation into

electrical energy and stored in the high-voltage

battery.

The high-voltage battery can be charged as fol-

lows:

through energy recuperation while the vehicle

is in motion

with the charging cable at a mains socket

while the vehicle is stationary

with the charging cable at a charging station

while the vehicle is stationary

The high-voltage battery can be charged using a

single-phase charging cable in a voltage range

from 100 V to 240 V.

If the condition of charge drops to less than 13%,

the high-voltage battery reserve indicator lamp

lights up in the instrument cluster. Charge the

high-voltage battery as soon as possible.

Below a condition of charge of 5%, the perform-

ance of the vehicle is reduced. The vehicle's

high-voltage electrical system switches off at a

condition of charge of 0%.

Use of the pre-entry climate control function

may mean that the high-voltage battery is not

fully charged.

High and low outside temperatures

Low outside temperatures

The efficiency of the high-voltage battery is sig-

nificantly reduced at very low outside tempera-

tures. The high-voltage battery is then no longer

able to provide the normal electrical power out-

put.

High outside temperatures

To prevent damage to the high-voltage battery

due to very high outside temperatures, the max-

imum power output of the high-voltage battery

is reduced automatically.

The E-CELL display indicates the maximum

amount of power available (Y page 152).

Notes on battery care

Avoid storing or transporting the vehicle in high

temperatures over a long period (e.g. container

transport).

If you park the vehicle and leave it stationary for

longer periods, connect it to a power supply.

Temperatures below Ò13 ‡ (Ò25 †) and over

104 ‡ (40 †), which affect the vehicle for a

period of more than seven days, can cause irre-

versible damage.

Discharged battery

The vehicle's high-voltage electrical system

switches off if the high-voltage battery is com-

pletely discharged. 30 seconds prior to this, you

are informed of the switch-off by the

BatteryBattery

Level

Level TooToo Low.Low. StopStop andand ChargeCharge Immedi‐Immedi‐

atelyately message. This protects the battery from

exhaustive discharge.

It is not possible to restart the drive system until

after charging.

Do not leave the vehicle parked for longer than

14 days with a high-voltage battery condition of

charge below 20%.

You can check the condition of charge in the

charge level display (Y page 153).

Further information on the "Energy flow display"

can be found in the "Trip" menu (Y page 157).

High-voltage battery

119

Driving and parking

Energy consumption and range

This range is reduced by:

high and low outside temperatures

a non-anticipatory driving style

switching on consumers, e.g. air-conditioning

system or heating

The battery's physical characteristics are such

that leaving the vehicle parked for an extended

period at low outdoor temperatures without

charging it can lead to:

a reduction in battery performance

longer charge times

In extreme cases, this could mean that the vehi-

cle cannot be started. For this reason, connect

the charging cable when leaving the vehicle

parked for long periods at low outdoor temper-

atures.

As a result of its basic characteristics, the

amount of energy available from the high-volt-

age battery decreases over the course of its life.

This reduces:

the maximum range that can be achieved by

the vehicle

the maximum output (acceleration) of the

vehicle

You can actively reduce the energy consump-

tion of your vehicle in a number of ways, for

example, by:

an anticipatory driving style

reducing the use of electrical consumers

having the vehicle regularly maintained

The charging time of the high-voltage battery

may change over the course of its life.

Observe the displays on energy usage

(Y page 158) and range (Y page 158).

RANGE PLUS

If you activate RANGE PLUS, the operating win-

dow of the battery will be extended at the next

charging process. An extended driving range will

be available to you for the next journey.

Using RANGE PLUS shortens the service life of

the battery. Therefore, only use RANGE PLUS if,

for example:

long journeys are planned or

the availability of charging stations at the des-

tination is limited

The more often RANGE PLUS is used, the more

the extended range is reduced.

Therefore always check the range display before

every journey (Y page 158).

To switch on: press button :.

The green Indicator lamp lights up.

To switch off: press button :.

The indicator lamp goes out.

RANGE PLUS switches off automatically if:

the charging cable is disconnected or

the charging process is complete

Charging the high-voltage battery via

the electrical outlet

Charging cable

Important safety notes

Only use the charging cable to charge the

high-voltage battery. Do not use the charging

cable for other purposes. It may otherwise be

damaged.

The vehicle is supplied with a single-phase 12 A

charging cable. Only use the charging cable

included with the vehicle, which has been

approved for vehicle use.

Pay attention to the "Important safety notes"

(Y page 117).

If you use the supplied 12 A charging cable to

charge a high-voltage battery:

the charge time increases considerably

electrical consumption increases considera-

bly

Where possible, charge the high-voltage battery

at a charging station (Y page 125). Only then

can certified electrical energy consumption lev-

els be reached.

The charging process can vary depending on

the charging station. Therefore, always

observe the local information.

Stowing the charging cable

The charging cable can be stowed in a bag in the

trunk of the vehicle. To do so, the bag must be

secured to the cargo tie-down rings using the

retaining strap provided.

Setting the maximum charge current

WARNING

If the charge current draw via a mains socket

is too high during the charging process, the

external electrical system may overheat.

There is a risk of fire.

Before beginning the charging process, check

the maximum permissible charge current

locally. Consult a qualified expert to do so

where necessary.

If necessary, adjust your vehicle's settings.

An excessive charge current can blow a fuse

or lead to overheating of the external power

supply. Check whether the external power

supply is compatible with the set charge cur-

rent. If necessary, lower the set charge cur-

rent or use another power socket.

You can set a limit for the values of the charge

current used in charging the high-voltage bat-

tery. This acts as a means of preventing the

power supply from overloading. You can set this

limit by using the controls on the charging cable

or in the on-board computer's menu. Only set

the maximum charge current in the on-board

computer menu if there are no charge current

settings on the charging cable.

The default standard value is the minimum

charge current setting. This corresponds to the

minimum available charge current from the

power supply.

The value of the maximum setting and the

relevant adjustment values may vary depend-

ing on the country.

Before charging the high-voltage battery, have

the maximum permissible charge current for the

Information about the charging time

(Y page 286)

If, after the charging process, the charging cable

is:

left connected to the mains socket, the set

value will be used for the next charging proc-

ess.

removed from the power socket, the values

will be reset to the minimum setting for the

next charging process. You may then need to

reset the values of the maximum charge cur-

rent.

If the charge current values that have been set

on the charging cable and the on-board com-

puter are different, the high-voltage battery is

charged using the lower value.

If the vehicle requires more time than usual to

charge the high-voltage battery, check:

the settings of the maximum charge current

on the controls of the charging cable

Calling up functions in the "My

Mercedes Electric - Vehicle Homepage"

The "My Mercedes Electric - Vehicle Homepage"

allows you access to information about your

vehicle and its functions using remote query and

remote configuration. For example, climate con-

trol can be activated using remote configuration

which means that it need not be set in the vehi-

cle. Power for the climate control is primarily

supplied via the charging cable connected to the

mains supply. In most cases, this does not

reduce the range. If climate control is activated,

the condition of charge and thus the range may

be reduced. The "Vehicle Homepage" provides

you with information all about how to use your

vehicle.

If the vehicle is entered in your personal area of

the "Vehicle Homepage", you can also access

the following functions:

request the current condition of charge of the

high-voltage battery

program the departure time (Y page 163)

order and activate the "Pre-entry climate con-

trol at departure time" function

If the vehicle is charging, the predicted charging

time and the predicted range will also be shown.

This data is estimated and may be influenced by

the following factors:

outside temperature

switched on consumers, e.g. climate control

and seat heating

personal driving style

road and traffic conditions

route characteristics

Therefore, allow for a sufficient reserve.

Information on additional functions and

operating instructions can be found on the

"Vehicle Homepage".

Connecting the vehicle to the Internet

Via a radio module

This function is not available in all countries and

requires an activated mbrace access.
