i The SmartKey can be turned in the ignition
lock even if it is not the correct SmartKey for
the vehicle. The ignition is not switched on.
The drive system cannot be started.
Start/Stop button General notes
Vehicles with KEYLESS-GO are equipped with
SmartKeys featuring the integrated KEYLESS-
GO function and a detachable Start/Stop but-
ton.
A check which periodically establishes a radio
connection between the vehicle and the Smart-
Key determines whether a valid SmartKey is in
the vehicle. This occurs, for example, when
starting the drive system.
When you insert the Start/Stop button into the
ignition lock, the system needs approximately
two seconds recognition time. You can then use the Start/Stop button.
Pressing the Start/Stop button several times in
succession corresponds to the different Smart- Key positions in the ignition lock. This is only the
case if you are not depressing the brake pedal.
If you depress the brake pedal and press the
Start/Stop button, the drive system starts
immediately. To start the vehicle without actively using the
SmartKey:
R
the Start/Stop button must be inserted in the
ignition lock.
R the SmartKey must be in the vehicle.
R the vehicle must not be locked with the
SmartKey or KEYLESS-GO (Y page 66)
Do not keep the KEYLESS-GO key:
R with electronic devices, e.g. a mobile phone
or another SmartKey.
R with metallic objects, e.g. coins or metal foil.
R inside metallic objects, e.g. a metal case
This can affect the functionality of KEYLESS-GO.
If you lock the vehicle with the SmartKey remote
control or with KEYLESS-GO, after a short time:
R you will not be able to switch on the ignition
with the Start/Stop button.
R you will no longer be able to start the drive
system with the Start/Stop button until the
vehicle is unlocked again
If you lock the vehicle centrally using the button
on the front door (Y page 72), you can continue
to start the drive system with the Start/Stop
button.
The drive system can be switched off while the
vehicle is in motion by pressing and holding the Start/Stop button for three seconds.

Never use damaged charging cables.
R Do not extend the charging cable.
R Do not use an adapter.
R Always observe the safety notes in the wall-
box's operating instructions.
The vehicle's high voltage electrical system is
under high voltage.
R Do not handle high-voltage components or
the orange cables of the vehicle's high-volt-
age electrical system.
R Do not touch high-voltage components or the
orange cables of the high-voltage electrical
system when a vehicle has been involved in a
crash.
R Do not touch any damaged components or
damaged orange cables of the vehicle's high-
voltage electrical system.
R Do not remove the covers of the high-voltage
electrical system components that are
marked with a warning sticker. Notes on the charging cable
Handling the charging cable and charg-
ing cable controls Do not leave the charging cable controls
(Y
page 123) hanging loose from an electrical
outlet. Otherwise, this could result in a poor
contact with the electrical outlet and malfunc-
tions when charging the vehicle.
To ensure that the brackets within the charging cable controls are not subjected to incorrect
loads, observe the following:
R Never lift or carry the controls by the charging
cable connector or the mains plug.
R To transport the charging cable, the coiled
part can be:
- wrapped around the controls or
- secured to the housing of the controls
Heat generated by the charging cable
and charging cable connector Pay attention to the important safety notes
(Y page 117).
During the charging process, the charging cable
and charging cable connector may heat up. The charging cable and charging cable connec-
tor will only heat up within the permissible lim-
iting values, provided that:
R the power supply and the charging cable are
not damaged
R the instructions for handling the charging
cable and controls on the charging cable are
observed
Should the permissible heating temperature lim-
its be exceeded, have the mains power supply
checked.
Electrical fuse against overvoltage !
Voltage surges in the mains supply can dam-
age the vehicle. The vehicle is therefore
equipped with a device which protects it from voltage surges in the mains supply. This
device may be triggered during severe thun-
derstorms, for example, and may lead to the
building's fuse being tripped and an interrup-
tion in the power supply. These functions pro-
tect the vehicle. After the building fuse is
switched on again, the charging process
resumes automatically. Following an interrup-
tion in the power supply without tripping of
the building's fuse, it may take up to
15 minutes for charging to resume automat-
ically.
Switch on the building's fuse again after the
electrical fuse against overvoltage has been
tripped. Otherwise, the charging process cannot
be continued. The high-voltage battery will not
be charged and you may not be able to drive the vehicle.
If other devices are protected by the same pro-
tective device, these are switched off as well
when the protective device is triggered. Ensure
that these other devices are still operational
after reactivating the protection device. 118

Tire-mounting tools should not be used near
the valve. This could damage the electronic
components.
Only have tires changed at a qualified spe-
cialist workshop.
Observe the instructions and safety notes in the "Changing a wheel" section (Y page 275).
The wear patterns on the front and rear tires
differ, depending on the operating conditions.
Rotate the wheels before a clear wear pattern
has formed on the tires. Front tires typically
wear more on the shoulders and the rear tires in
the center.
On vehicles that have the same size front and
rear wheels, you can rotate the wheels accord-
ing to the intervals in the tire manufacturer's
warranty book in your vehicle documents. If no
warranty book is available, the tires should be
rotated every 3,000 to 6,000 miles (5,000 to
10,000 km). Depending on tire wear, this may
be required earlier. Do not change the direction
of wheel rotation.
Clean the contact surfaces of the wheel and the brake disc thoroughly every time a wheel is rota-
ted. Check the tire pressure and reactivate the
tire pressure monitor if necessary. Direction of rotation
Tires with a specified direction of rotation have
additional benefits, e.g. if there is a risk of hydro-
planing. These advantages can only be gained if the tires are installed corresponding to the
direction of rotation.
An arrow on the sidewall of the tire indicates its correct direction of rotation. Storing wheels
Store wheels that are not being used in a cool,
dry and preferably dark place. Protect the tires
against oil and grease. Mounting a wheel
Preparing the vehicle X
Stop the vehicle on solid, non-slippery and
level ground.
X Apply the electric parking brake manually. X

(Y page 128).
Securing the vehicle to prevent it from
rolling away If your vehicle is equipped with a wheel chock, it
can be found in the tire-change tool kit
(Y page 241).
The folding wheel chock is an additional safety
measure to prevent the vehicle from rolling
away, for example when changing a wheel.
