Operation
Fig. 61
On the instrument panel display: avail-
abl e po
wer. : Indication displayed complete-
ly. : Indication moved down. When the drive system is connected and
whil
e driving, inf

ormation on the power used
and on the available power is displayed in the
instrument panel display.
Power display
When connecting the drive system before
starting to move, the indicator changes from
 to  ››› Fig. 60.
When the vehicle is moving, the power used
at that moment to move is indicated in the in-
strument panel display (in % PWR x 10)
››› Fig. 60. When the indicator needle is in the blue
zone

, the vehicle is moving with a particu-
larly low energy consumption.
When the indicator needle is in the green
zone, the brake energy and kinetic energy
are converted into electrical energy (en-
ergy recuperation) by the electric drive
system and stored in the high-voltage
battery.
Indication of available power
While driving, the current available power of
the electric engine is displayed on the instru-
ment panel display ››› Fig. 61 . When the in-
strument panel display changes to another
indication, the indication of the available
power moves downwards ››› Fig. 61 .
When all segments are displayed, it means
that the maximum power of the electric en-
gine is available. Having high power available
is necessary for, i.e. accelerating the vehicle
quickly to, for example, overtake safely.
If a lot of power is required for a long period
of time (it is mainly seen because the power
indicator needle is above the low consump-
tion zone) ››› Fig. 60
A ), the time during
which the maximum po w

er is available is re-
duced. In the indication of the available pow-
er, the segments of the E-Max zone turn off
from right to left.
When all segments of the E-Max zone turn off,
it means that the maximum power of the A
B electric engine is no longer available
››

› . If
ther e is still a high demand, the po
wer cur-
rently available is reduced, which is indicated
by the shortening of the Normal zone bar,
starting from the right. Based on the length of
the bar, it is possible to know how much the
drive power has been reduced. If less power
is then used, the available power gradually
increases once again.
Limited availability of power may be related
to driving behaviour, i.e., accelerating the ve-
hicle quickly. In general, the available power
is limited under the following conditions:

Time
Hours and minut es of the instrument panel
cl
ock. The time can be displayed in 12 or 24
hour format. If necessary, an S appears at the
top of the display to indicate that the summer
time is set.
Units
Adjusting the temperature, consumption and
distance units.
Service
Checking service messages.
Factory settings
The default factory setting of some functions
are reset in the Settings menu.
Service intervals The inspection indication appears on the in-
strument panel displ

The dat es of the services (i.e
. the next Inspec-
tion Service or change of brake fluid) are de-
tailed on the sticker on the door pillar or in the
Maintenance Schedule.
The set service intervals have been specified
with the service dependent on time/dis-
tance travelled. Inspection reminder
If an inspection expir

es soon, an Inspection
reminder appears in the form of an abbrevia-
tion k and an indication in km appears when
the ignition is switched on. The number of kil-
ometres shown is the maximum number that
may be driven until the next service.
Service due
After the service date, an audible warning is
given when the ignition is switched on and the
abbreviation k will flash on the display for a few seconds.
Check the service date
With the ignition switched on, the engine off
and the vehicle stopped, the current service
can be checked:

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
ake ››› .
Sel ect a r
ecuperation level
There are a total of 4 brake energy recupera-
tion levels. You can switch between recupera-
tion levels 1 to 3 by pressing the selector lever
slightly sideways towards ››› Fig. 135

Driving
 - Neutr
al
The el ectric drive system is in the neutral po-
sition. No movement is transmitted to the
wheels and the braking effect of the electric
engine does not occur.
 – Permanent forward drive position
The electric drive system is in the normal pro-
gramme (brake energy recuperation levels
0-3).
 – Very intense brake energy recupera-
tion
Very intense brake energy recuperation is de-
celeration phases (brake energy recupera-
tion level 4).
