Braking and parking
If the electromechanical brake servo is not
w orking, the br
ake pedal must be pressed
harder, as the braking distance increases due
to the lack of assistance from the servo brake.
Brake blending
The brake energy recuperation can generate
a braking effect ››› page 139. This braking ef-
fect depends on the selected driving pro-
gramme and the level of charge of the high-
voltage battery. If the braking effect caused
by the recuperation is very intense, the vehi-
cle’s brake lights with turn on. The electric en-
gine, when operating as an alternator, can
generate braking torque on the front wheels
based on the RPM and the temperature and
charge level of the high-voltage battery.
These variable parameters cause fluctuating
electric decelerations which are hydraulical-
ly compensated according to the driver’s de-
sires. This function is called “brake blending”
and it combines mechanical braking with the
engine brake effect. WARNING
Driving at high speed on icy, slippery wet
gr ound can r

esult in loss of vehicle control
and serious injury to the driver and passen-
gers.

power is reduced and certain consumers are auto-
matically switched off, such as the air conditioning
system. The vehicle may already be travelling in re-
serve mode.
The high-voltage battery charge has reached the re-

Its lights up yellow.
The power is reduced and there is very little autono-

A t e

xt message will also appear on the instrument
panel display.
The maximum driving speed is limited to 80 km/h (50
mph). The Eco+ driving profile will be activated.
The high-voltage battery is discharged. There is only
sufficient autonomy for a few hundred metres. Stop
the vehicle in a safe place. Charge the high-voltage
battery immediately. The control lamps light up together when the
ignition is s
wit

ched on and should turn off af-
ter approximately 2 seconds. This is the time
taken for the function check. WARNING

Charge options

High-voltage battery
Batteries age based on their use and their
oper ating time
. It is advisable that you know
certain details regarding the correct handling
and care of the high-voltage battery so this
remains in good condition for longer and can
be used in a reliable manner. Carefully read
the following information and take into ac-
count the indications when using the vehicle. WARNING
If the battery is charged in an inappropriate
manner , if no consider

ation is given to the
general safety measures, power sockets
and charging cables in poor condition are
used or the high-voltage battery is used in
an inadequate manner, this could lead to
short circuits, electrical shocks, explosions,
fires, burns and serious injuries, even death.

Practical tips
CAUTION
Leaving the vehicle parked for a long peri-
od of time with the high-v olt
age battery
discharged may cause irreversible damage
to the battery. · Always charge the high-
voltage battery immediately. Note
