Under normal operating conditions, the display of
t
he available drive system output is in the maxi-
mum range.
In the following cases, the power output available
may deviate from the maximum range:
= Very high or low outside temperatures
= Very high performance requirements for a
long period of time
= Very low charge status of the high-voltage bat-
tery
= Fault in the drive system The segments on the speedometer indicate the
s
tatuses of the following systems: Cruise con-
trol / Limiter / Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC
Maximum range E is calculated based on the
average consumption of the vehicle. Range F is
calculated based on personal driving style.
The actual remaining range also depends on fac-
tors such as outside temperatures or air condi-
tioning settings.
While the navigation system or commuter route is
active, additional information about the route
ahead can be included in the calculation of range
F. The actual remaining range may diMer from
the displayed currently calculated range. 248
