Automatic backing up function of the electric
socket Oap
If an obstacle impedes the electrical socket Oap
while it is closing, the socket Oap will open again
automatically.When closing the socket Oap, make sure that
no body parts or objects are in the closing area.
Starting the direct current charging process
(mode 4)
&DANGER Risk of death when charging at a
damaged socket
The charging process uses high voltage.
If the charging cable, the vehicle socket or the
mains socket are damaged, you could receive
an electric shock.
Only use an undamaged charging cable.Avoid mechanical damage such as crush- ing, abrading or driving over the cable.Have a damaged vehicle socket replaced
at a qualiNed specialist workshop as
soon as possible.Never connect the charging cable to a damaged vehicle socket.*NOTE Damage due to overheating of
charging cable and charge port
During the charging process, the charging
cable and charge port can heat up within the permissible limits.
The permissible limit values are inOuenced by
the following factors:
= the power supply system and the charging
cable are not damaged
= the instructions for handling the charging
cable and the control element on the charging cable have been observed
If the charging cable or charge portbecomes too hot, have the power supply
system checked.*NOTE Damaged or dirty vehicle socket
when the socket Oap is openAlways keep the socket cover and the
socket Oap closed when there is no
charging cable connected. This protects
the vehicle socket from dirt and damage.Make sure that the socket cover is
closed properly before closing the socket
Oap. This can otherwise result in damage
which may prevent the socket Oap from
being opened again.*NOTE Damage to the vehicle socket or the
charge port due to incorrect handling
Do not use excessive force (maximum 67.4 lbf
(300 N)) to insert the charge port into the vehicle socket to the stop. You may otherwise
damage the vehicle socket, the charge port or
their contacts.
If you feel there is increased resistance,
pull the charge port out of the socket
and reinsert it.Driving and parking199

tant to reach the next destination6Dynamic charge level display7Current charging capacity\bSpeciNed remaining range 1 may vary due to
diMerent factors, e.g. driving style or topogra-

When the vehicle is connected to the mains sup- ply and is switched oM, the driver\bs display shows
the charge level display for approximately two
minutes.
\bThe value of current charging capacity 7 can

At a charging capacity of 10 kW or higher, the
value in the charge level display is rounded oM
and shown without a decimal place.
The value in 4 varies depending on the setting of
the charging process. It displays the charging pre-
diction, e.g. the time at which the selected charge level will be reached or the charge level at the
pre-selected departure time.

*NOTE Damage caused by vehicle being
lowered
Vehicles AIRMATIC: The vehicle can be low-
ered due to diMerences in temperature or
extended non-operational times. This can
cause damage to parts of the body.
When stopping the vehicle and when driving oM, make sure that there are no
obstacles such as curbs under or in the
immediate vicinity of the body.\bIf you park the vehicle for a long period,
observe the following notes:
= Make sure the high-voltage battery has a
suPcient state of charge, especially at
very low outside temperatures. That way, you can avoid any problems when the
vehicle is subsequently started.
= If possible, avoid parking spaces in direct
sunlight.
Observe the notes on charging the high-volt-
age battery (  page 188).

In addition, the children could also set the
vehicle in motion, for example by:
= releasing the parking brake.
= changing the transmission position.
= starting the vehicle.Never leave children unattended in the
vehicle.When leaving the vehicle, always take the SmartKey with you and lock the vehicle.Keep the vehicle SmartKey out of reach
of children.
