The range maximisation function enables a maxi-
mum range gain. Toachie vethis, the function par-
tially or comple tely switches o. con venience sys-
te ms that are not releva nt todriving and activates
e1ciency-enhancing driving functions.
The range maximisation function cont rols the

If necessar y,yo u can deactivate there strictions
of individual function groups again. This will
re duce the maximum range gain by theva lue
speci/ed forth e function group.
If yo u switch on a deactivated function while
ra nge maximization is activated, all restrictions of
th e cor responding function group will be remo ved
and the maximum range gain will be reduced
accordingl y.Fo rex ample, if you switch on the
seat heating again, all restrictions of the "Seating
comfort" function group will be deactivated.
This does not apply tothe ECO driving functions
gr oup, as thera nge gain in this case depends
mainly on your personal driving style. The activa-
te d ECO driving functions help youto drive in an
energy-e1cient manner. The speci/ed range gain
fo rth e ECO drive functions can be achie ved only if
yo u obser vethe driving inst ructions and recom-
mendations displa yed and drive without kickdown.

The 0exible all-wheel distribution of the 4MATIC
means the drive is alw ays ideal lydist ributed
between bo thaxles. Depending on the situation,
only the front axle or only there ar axle can be
driven, or the drive can be distributed continu-
ously between bo thaxles.
This means that recuperation can be used even
more e.ectively and thera nge of theve hicle can
be increased (/ page 184).
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. It cannot take into account 192

an aid. You are responsible especially for main-
ta ining a safe distance from theve hicle in front,
fo rve hicle speed, for braking in good time and for
st ay ing in lane.
% In wintry road conditions, the maximum e.ect
of the 0exible all-wheel distribution can be
achie ved only if you use winter tyres (M+S

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
th eve hicle is idle for se veral months. This can
damage the high-voltage batter y. #

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
decreases 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 frequently fully charging (char gelevel
100%) the high-voltage batter y,especially
when this process is not directly follo wed
by a jou rney
R frequent rapid charging with direct cur rent
(mode 4) 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 Every six months, when the outside temp era-
ture is abo ve10 °C, park theve hicle overnight
with a charge leve l below 20%.
R Only charge the high-voltage battery with
direct cur rent (mode 4) if necessar y.
R Char gethe high-voltage battery on average to
a ch arge leve l of 80%. Be yond a charge leve l of
80%, thech arging time is considerably pro-
lon ged.
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. Driving and parking

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 210).
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 184)
R Reduced use of electrical consumers
R Having theve hicle regula rly main tained
The charging time of the high-voltage battery may
ch ange over the course of its life.
% Depending on the national version, your vehi-
cle is equipped with one of thefo llowing vehi-
cle soc kets. Yo

When using a CCS (Combined Charging Sys-

Charging options forth e high-voltage battery
(mode 2, 3 or 4):
R Charging through recuperation while theve hi-
cle is in motion
R Charging with alternating cur rent when sta-
tiona ry:
- at a mains soc ket (mode 2)
- at a wallbox or charging station (mode 3)
R Charging with direct cur rent when stationar y:
- at a rapid charging station (mode 4)
Depending on the count ry-speci/c vehicle equip-
ment and your vehicle's charging cable, single
phase ACcharging is also possible.
Obser vethe di.erent grid requ irements of your
cur rent location when charging. Only use charging
cables which conform tothegr id requ irements.
Consult a quali/ed elect rician or your local grid
operator if you ha veany questions. It is
recommended that youch arge the high-volt-
