Air conditioning
Defrost/demist function 
The air dr awn in fr
om outside the vehicle is di-
rected at the windscreen and air recirculation
is automatically switched off. To defrost the
windscreen more quickly, the air is dehumidi-
fied at temperatures over approximately
+3°C (+38°F) and the fan runs at maximum
output.
Windscreen heating |
Press the button to connect and disconnect
the windscreen heating with the engine run-
ning.
Heated rear window 
This only works when the engine is running
and switches off automatically after a maxi-
mum of 10 minutes.
It should be switched off as soon as the glass
is demisted. Lower electricity consumption
has a positive effect on energy consumption.
To avoid possible damage to the battery, an
automatic temporary disconnection of this
function is possible, coming back on when
normal operating conditions are re-establish-
ed.

Intr
oduction The radio system is supplied in different ver-
sions depending on the country and the f
ea-
t

ures of the vehicle. Some systems also have
a DAB radio receiver. The control overview
contains the possible versions of the system
››› page 114. Note

Operating modes
RDS is not available in all places or on all ra-
dio st ations.
Depending on the country and the equip-
ment, RDS and s
witching to alternative fre-
quencies (AF) can be deactivated in the sys-
tem settings ››› page 117.
TP function (traffic information sta-
tion) Fig. 113
TP function activated. The TP function is an RDS radio data service
› ›

› page 120. If your equipment is fitted with
DAB ››› page 123, you can also use the TP
function without having RDS ››› page 121.
Using the TP function to track traffic informa-
tion is only possible if a station providing traf-
fic information can be tuned. If the tracking of a traffic station is active (in-
dication: TP

››

› Fig. 113) traffic announce-
ments are played directly in Audio mode.
Tracking of traffic stations is not possible in
the AM frequency band 1)
.
Some stations without their own traffic infor-
mation support the TP function by broad-
casting traffic information from other stations
(EON). Traffic announcements of the corre-
sponding traffic station are played directly
during the active audio mode.

Infotainment System
The DAB radio tuner supports the DAB, DAB +
and DMB audio tr ansmission st
andards.
The digital radio in Europe is transmitted
through band III frequencies (from 174 MHz to
240 MHz) and of band L (from 1,452 MHz to
1,492 MHz).
The frequencies of both bands are called
“channels” and have an abbreviation (e.g. 12
A).
In a channel, several available DAB stations
are grouped together in an “ensemble”.
DAB radio is not currently available every-
where. DAB radio mode displays  in the
areas without DAB coverage. In the system
and function settings, it is possible to enable
changing to an FM station for this case
››› page 117. In the system and function set-
tings, other settings can be configured for
station tracking and for the reproduction of
DAB announcements. Note
Stations are responsible for the information
they tr ansmit. Operation

announcements on the audio system of the
vehicle.
Instructions for navigation
Acoustic navigation announcements will be
played on the speakers of the vehicle. Re-
garding this, take into account the instruc-
tions in Adjusting the volume ››› page 134.
You can manage this from the connected
smartphone ››› page 134.
Changing the volume
Multimedia playback, navigation announce-
ments and phone calls emitted by the con-
nected smartphone will be played on the
speakers of the vehicle.
The volume of the traffic announcement can
be modified with the volume control D.
You can also adjust the volume of the naviga-
tion announcements on the Sound settings
menu.
When the volume of the system is muted (no-
tification:  ), playback of multimedia sour-
ces played on the connected smartphone is
also interrupted. Note

Driving indications Electric drive system functions. Delivery of power from the electric engine
The maximum t
or

que of the electric engine is
available immediately after pressing the ac-
celerator pedal.
Brake energy recuperation (charging)
When braking the vehicle, electric power is
generated through the electric engine and
stored in the high-voltage battery
››› page 139. This also occurs to a lesser ex-
tent when the vehicle moves by inertia or
drives downhill in the deceleration phase.
As the charge level of the high-voltage bat-
tery increases, the recuperation reduces and,
thus, the effect of the engine brake. When the
high-voltage battery is fully charged, no en-
ergy recuperation takes place and the effect
of the engine brake is not available ››› .
The ener gy r

ecuperation can be displayed
on the instrument panel display or in the ap-
plication installed on the smartphone. Slow travel function
The slo

w travel function consists of driving
slowly, at about 5 km/h (3 mph), forward or
reverse without pressing the accelerator ped-
al.
The slow travel function is activated automat-
ically:

On the instrument panel display: indi-
cation of r ecuper

ation levels. The brake energy recuperation can generate
a br
aking eff

ect. This braking effect depends
on the selected driving programme and the
level of charge of the high-voltage battery. When braking the vehicle and when the vehi-
cle mo

ves by inertia or travels downhill in the
deceleration phase, electric power is gener-
ated by the electric engine and stored in the
high-voltage battery. The electric engine
then operates as an alternator and produces
a engine brake effect. This process is called
brake energy recuperation.
The status of the recuperation is indicated in
the power display of the instrument panel
››› page 61. When recuperation is active, the
needle goes to the green area of the display.
The current recuperation level is displayed on
the instrument panel display ››› Fig. 136.
Given the case, in the application installed on
the smartphone you can view a statistic of
the energy recuperated over the last 30 mi-
nutes. Check the electronic instruction man-
ual of the application for this.
The effect of the engine brake is more or less
intense depending on the level of recupera-
tion. If the recuperation is very intense, the
brake light of the vehicle may also be switch-
ed on. As the charge level of the high-voltage
battery increases, the recuperation reduces
and, thus, the effect of the engine brake.
When the high-voltage battery is fully charg-
ed, no energy recuperation takes place and
the effect of the engine brake is not available.
When the vehicle detects that road condi-
tions do not allow safe contact between the
wheels and the road, the energy recupera- tion is automatically reduced and, therefore,
the effect of the engine br
