4MATIC ensures that all four wheels are driven.
To get her with ESP ®
and 4ETS, 4MATIC impr oves
th e traction of your vehicle whene ver a driven
wheel spins due toinsu1cient traction.
If yo ufa ilto adapt your driving style, 4MATIC can
neither reduce therisk of an accident nor override
th e la wsof ph ysics. 4MATIC cannot take account
of road, weather and tra1c conditions. 4MATIC is
only an aid. You are responsible especially for
maintaining a safe distance from theve hicle in
front, forve hicle speed, for braking in good time
and for st aying in lane.
% In wintry road conditions, the maximum e.ect
of 4MATIC can be achie ved only if you use
winter tyres (M+S tyres), with snow chains if

of time Lithium-ion batteries
experience a natural self-

Exhausti vedischarging can therefore occur if

TE Accelerated ageing of the high-volt-

av ailable from the high-voltage battery decrease
over the course of its life. As a
re sult, the maximum electrical range that can

R If leaving theve hicle idle for lengt hyperiods,
park up theve hicle with a high- voltage battery
ch arge leve l between 25% and 30%. 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 204).
R Char gethe high-voltage battery if thech arge
le ve l is below 15%.
R Ifth e high-voltage battery is only used with at
low charge leve ls, fully charge the high-voltage
battery every six months.
R Do not disconnect the 12 V battery even if the
