When loading, make sure no sharp objects
come into contact with the soft top or the
rear window.
Do not place any evenly distributed loads
with a weight of more than 165 lbs (75 kg)
on the rear soft top when folded down.
Make sure the high-mounted brake lamp
is not concealed.
! Do not block the soft top system’s
locking apertures.
Only place the side rails in the
designated storage space of the tailgate.
! Do not sit on the folded-down rear soft
top.
Do not fold down the rear soft top at
temperatures below 14¦ (-10¥).
Do not place any pointed, sharp-edged,
hot (above 176 ¦[80¥]), incandescent or
burning objects on the soft top’s lining.
Do not apply wax to the soft top fabric and
select only wax-free washing products
when using an automatic car wash.
Only drive with the retaining clips
closed, as exhaust fumes could otherwise
reach the vehicle’s interior.
! Please keep in mind that weather
conditions can sometimes change
rapidly. Make sure to close the
retractable soft top and the rear soft top
when leaving the vehicle. If water enters
the vehicle interior, vehicle
electronics could be damaged which is
not covered by the smart Limited
Warranty. Opening and closing the retractable
soft top
You can open and close the retractable soft
top when the vehicle is either stationary
or in motion. G
WARNING
Never operate the retractable soft top if
there is the possibility of anyone being
harmed by the opening or closing
procedure. G
WARNING
The retractable soft top is made out of
fabric. In the event of an accident, the
fabric may tear. This may result in an
opening in the roof.
In a vehicle rollover, occupants not
wearing their seat belts or not wearing
them properly may be thrown out of the
opening. Such an opening also presents a
potentia lfor injury for occupants wearing
their seat belts properly as entire body
parts or portions of them may protrude from
the passenger compartment. G
WARNING
When leaving the vehicle, always remove the
key from the starter switch, take it with
you, and lock the vehicle. Do not leave
children unattended in the vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle. A child’s
unsupervised access to a vehicle could
result in an accident and/or serious
personal injury.
! To avoid damaging the seals, do not
transport any objects with sharp edges
which can stick out of the retractable
soft top.
Do not open the retractable soft top if
there is snow or ice on the roof, as this
could result in malfunctions.
If you cannot open or close the
retractable soft top due to a malfunction
contact Roadside Assistance or an
authorized electric drive smart center.
i To avoid draining the battery, leave the
drive system running when opening and
closing the retractable soft top. Soft top system (cabriolet only)

WARNING
Do not turn off the drive system before the
vehicle has come to a complete stop. With
the drive system not running, there is no
power assistance for the brake and steering
systems. In this case, it is important to
keep in mind that a considerably higher
degree of effort is necessary to brake and
steer the vehicle.

WARNING
The operating condition of the high-
voltage battery (e.g. not yet at normal
operating temperature or fully charged)
influences the braking effect of the
electric motor.
In overrun or braking mode, the motor's
braking effect may therefore be reduced or
may not be present at all.
As a result of the reduced engine braking
effect, you may cause an accident and
injure yourself or others. Transmission

In overrun or braking mode, the motor's
braking effect may therefore be reduced or

As a result of the reduced engine braking
effect, you may cause an accident and

Compensate for the reduced engine braking
effect by pressing the brake pedal
accordingly, as required.
! Do not hang any objects on the power
gauge.
This could cause the power gauge to be
torn from its mountings and be damaged.
Power gauge 0003contains two segments:
R Section right of 0
Power gauge 0003indicates the current
power that the drive system delivers to
the rear wheels. 100 % correspond to
55 kW peak power.
R Section left of 0
When you release the accelerator pedal
or when you depress the brake pedal, the
electric motor operates as a generator.
Electric current is produced and stored
in the high-voltage battery. As long as
the high-voltage battery is being
charged, the electric motor simulates an
engine brake.
When the pointer of power gauge 0003is in
the "OFF “position, the vehicle is not ready
to drive, because:

WARNING
When the indicator for the maximum
available power is not at its maximal
range, the power output is reduced
noticeably. Adapt your speed and driving
accordingly. Otherwise, you could cause an
accident. Exercise particular care when
passing or accelerating. The indicator for the maximum available
power of the drive system contains three
segments
0002. The number of dark segments
indicates power that is currently
available.
R Three segments: maximum power is
available.
R Two segments: Less than 66 % amount of
power is available.
R One segment: Less than 33 % amount of
power is available.
Under normal operating conditions the
indicator for the maximum power is at the
maximum range 0002.
The available amount of power can vary
from the the maximum range due to:
R very high or low outside temperatures
R very high power demand over along time
period
R very low charge level of the high-voltage
battery 82
