tion via iDrive.

ing wheel or ›Cancel‹.

rently in use.
Hints on Emergency

tiate an Emergency Request. In stressful situa‐
tions, the voice and vocal pitch can change.

ment of a phone connection.

smoothly and with normal volume, empha‐
sis, and speed.▷Always say commands in the language of

The electric motor acts as a generator and
converts the kinetic energy of the vehicle into
electric current.
Charging can take place in various situations
while the vehicle is in motion:▷As soon as the gas pedal is only slightly
depressed.▷During vehicle braking.
The mark in the instrument cluster is located
within the CHARGE range.
Sensible driving and early speed reduction are
important to make full use of the energy recov‐
ery feature.
Display The eDRIVE displays, refer to page 74, pro‐
vide information about the current state of the
drive and visualize the system's use in a dia‐
gram.
Maximize energy-saving driving and
range
Energy-saving driving is the basic prerequisite
for as large a range as possible. eDRIVE pro‐
vides various functions that assist with an en‐
ergy-saving driving style and in the process
help to monitor the range and if needed to in‐
crease it. The following instructions provide an
overview of the available functions and the per‐
sonal measures.
Before driving eDRIVE allows using the air conditioner even
before driving off. The stationary climate con‐
trol, refer to page 132, provides more range
than full air conditioning while driving.
Parked car ventilation during the charging
process can provide maximum range when
driving off.
Trip planning and special functions of
the navigation system
Enter your destination and the following func‐
tions will be available:
▷ECO PRO routing for efficient route plan‐
ning.▷ECO PRO+ mode for economical driving
with limited comfort features.▷Charging assistant helps to find and in‐
clude public charging stations.▷Range assistant automatically checks the
radius of action, see Integrated Owner's
Manual.▷Intermodal routing for trip planning using
public transportation, refer to Integrated
Owner's Manual.▷Monitoring of a charging station, whose
reachability is automatically checked, see
Integrated Owner's Manual.
