(TPMS)* only functions on wheels that are
equipped with the proper electronic
sensors (Y page 131). Batteries
Notes on the vehicle’s electrical sys-
tem
The vehicle’s electrical system provides
power for the electric drive and all elec-
trical consumers or components of the
vehicle.
Power is supplied to the vehicle via two
batteries:
R 12-volt battery
R High-voltage battery Notes on the 12‑volt battery
Your vehicle’s 12‑volt battery is located in
the passenger footwell below the footrest
(Y page 199).
The 12 volt battery should always be suffi-
ciently charged in order to achieve its
rated service life. Refer to the Scheduled
Maintenance Guide (USA only) or the
Service booklet (Canada only) for battery
maintenance intervals.
If you use your vehicle mostly for short-
distance trips, you will need to have the
12 volt battery charge checked more fre-
quently.
When replacing the battery, always use bat-
teries approved by smart. For information,
contact an authorized electric drive smart
center. If you do not intend to operate your vehicle
for an extended period of time, consult an
authorized electric drive smart center
about steps you need to observe. G
WARNING
Observe all safety instructions and pre-
cautions when handling automotive batter-
ies. Risk of explosion.
Fire, open flames and
smoking are prohibited
when handling batteries.
Avoid creating sparks. Battery acid is caustic.
Do not allow it to come
into contact with skin,
eyes or clothing.
Wear suitable protective
clothing, especially
gloves, apron and face-
guard. Wear eye protection.
Rinse any acid spills
immediately with clear
water. Contact a physician
if necessary. Keep children away.
Follow the instructions in
this Operator’s Manual. G
WARNING
Failure to follow these instructions can
result in severe injury or death.
Observe all safety instructions and pre-
cautions when handling automotive batter-
ies.

The electrical fuses in your vehicle serve
to switch off malfunctioning power cir-
cuits.
If a fuse is blown, the components and sys-
tems secured by that fuse will stop operat-
ing. G
WARNING
Only use fuses approved by smart with the
specified amperage for the system in ques-
tion and do not attempt to repair or bridge
a blown fuse this may cause an overload
leading to a fire, and/or cause damage to
electrical components and/or systems.
Contact an authorized electric drive smart
center if you encounter any electrical
problems.
! A blown fuse must be replaced by an
appropriate spare fuse (recognizable by
its color or the fuse rating given on the
fuse) of the amperage recommended in
the fuse chart. Any smart center will be
glad to advise you on this subject.
If a newly inserted fuse blows again, have
the cause determined and rectified at an
authorized electric drive smart center.
Before replacing fuses:
R Engage the parking brake.
R Make sure the gear selector lever is in
park position P.
R Turn off all electrical accessories. Fuses

Rims and tires
Notes
! Only use tires which have been tested
and approved by smart. Tires approved by
smart are developed to provide best pos-
sible performance in conjunction with
the driving safety systems on your vehi-
cle such as the ABS or the ESP ®
.
Using tires other than those approved by
smart may result in damage that is not
covered by the smart Limited Warranty.
! Using tires other than those approved
by smart can have detrimental effects,
such as
R poor handling characteristics
R increased noise
R increased energy consumption
Moreover, tires and rims not approved by
smart may, under load, exhibit dimen-
sional variations and different tire
deformation characteristics that could
cause them to come into contact with the
vehicle body or axle parts. Damage to the
tires or the vehicle may be the result.
i Further information on tires and rims
is available at any authorized electric
drive smart center. A placard with the
recommended tire inflation pressure is
located on the driver’s door B‑pillar.
The tire inflation pressure should be
checked regularly and should only be
adjusted on cold tires. Follow tire man-
ufacturer’s maintenance recommenda-
tion included with vehicle. Mobility
Your vehicle is equipped with a tire repair
kit (Y page 187). In case of a flat tire, it
enables you to drive to the nearest author-
ized electric drive smart center on the
sealed tire. If the tire is damaged too severely for the
tire sealant to provide a reliable tire
repair:
