automatic transmission SMART FORTWO COUPE ELECTRIC DRIVE 2013 Owners Manual

!
The remote control has an operating
range of approximately 50 ft (15 meters).
This can fluctuate greatly as a
consequence of local conditions
(reflective or absorbing objects) and
interference emitted by other radio
transmission systems. Similarly, the
operating range fluctuates in line with
the direction from which the remote
control is activated.
To prevent theft, however, it is advisable
to only unlock the vehicle when you are
in close proximity to it. Locking and unlocking from the
outside
X Selective unlocking: Press button0006on
the key once.
All turn signal lamps flash once.
The driver’s door and the charge socket
flap are unlocked.
X Global unlocking: Press button0006on the
key twice.

WARNING
When leaving the vehicle, always remove the
key from the starter switch, take it with
you, and lock the vehicle. Do not leave
children unattended in the vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle. A child’s
unsupervised access to a vehicle could
result in an accident and/or serious
personal injury.
You can lock and unlock the vehicle from
inside using the central locking or
unlocking switch. This can be useful, for
example, if you want to unlock the
passenger door from inside or lock the
vehicle before starting to drive. Opening and closing

WARNING
A vehicle with an electric motor produces
significantly lower noise levels than a
vehicle with a combustion engine. Other
motorists or pedestrians, especially those
who are visually or hearing impaired, may
be unable to hear your vehicle while it is
in motion. This is particularly true when
driving at lower speeds and during parking
maneuvers. At all times, it is the
responsibility of the driver to be aware of
their surroundings, especially in these low
speed situations. Otherwise other road
users could be seriously or fatally injured. G
WARNING
Make sure absolutely no objects are
obstructing the pedals’ range of motion.
Keep the driver’s footwell clear of all
obstacles. If there are any floormats* or
carpets in the footwell, make sure the
pedals still have sufficient clearance.
During sudden acceleration or braking
maneuvers, the objects could get caught
between or beneath the pedals and restrict
your ability to brake or accelerate. This
could lead to accidents and/or injury.
X Fasten the seat belt.
X Depress the brake pedal.
X Insert the key into the starter switch.
X Move the gear selector lever to position

Compensate for the reduced engine braking
effect by pressing the brake pedal
accordingly, as required.
Using the steering wheel paddle shifters,
you can increase or decrease the
recuperation in overrun phases.
Recuperation means that energy is
recovered while driving - the electric
motor functions as a generator. The kinetic
energy of the vehicle is converted into
electric power and stored in the high-
voltage battery. The more the recuperation
increases, the more the vehicle will be
decelerated.
In overrun phases, there are three levels of
recuperation:
R no recuperation (level 0, coasting)
R mid-level recuperation (level 1)
R high-level recuperation (level 2)
The amount of recuperation in overrun
mode is displayed in the power gauge
(Y page 79).
When you switch on the ignition, level 1 is
automatically preset. X
Decrease recuperation: Pull left
steering wheel paddle shifter 0002.
X Increase recuperation: Pull right
steering wheel paddle shifter 0003.Use the different levels 0 to 2 for
conditions as described below: Level 0 Driving without frequent
breaking. No sharp bends on
the road ahead.
Maximum kinetic energy
remains for the vehicle.
Level 1 Normal driving, standard
setting.
Level 2 Sporty driving.
The break pedal has to be
depressed less often, as the
deceleration due to
recuperation is higher than
in level 1.
The energy efficiency is
substantially higher than if
the vehicle is decelerated by
depressing the brake pedal.
At levels
1and 2the vehicle can be
steplessly decelerated by depressing the
brake pedal.
i Under certain circumstances, in
overrun phases recuperation does not
work as described above. This may be e. g
the case if the high-voltage battery is
already fully charged or has not reached
operating temperature. Driving tips
Driving on uphill grades G
WARNING
The hill-start assist system is not
designed to function as a parking brake and
does not prevent the vehicle from moving
when parked on an incline.
Always engage the parking brake in
addition to shifting to park position P.78
