Problems with the charging process
Problem Possible causes/consequences and
0001 Solutions
The charge socke
tflap
does not open. The charge socket flap is not unlocked.
X
Unlock the vehicle (Y page 51). The batteries of the key are discharged.
X
Unlock the vehicle with the key manually (Y page 170). The charge socket flap is unlocked but the opening mechanism
is jammed.
X
Lock and unlock the vehicle again.
If the opening mechanism is still jammed:
X Contact an authorized electric drive smart center. The charging cable
cannot be inserted
into the vehicle power
socket. The vehicle power socket is locked.
X
Make sure that the gear selector lever is in position P.The charging cable
plug cannot be
removed from the
vehicle power socket. The charging cable plug is not unlocked.
X
Press the 0007button on the key.
The charging cable plug in the vehicle power socket is
released.
X Remove the charging cable plug from the vehicle power
socket. Intelligent charging management
If you wish to charge economically and with
minimal damage to the battery, you must set
a departure time (Y page 86). This option
to optimize the charging process depends
on your electricity contract and the local
power supplier. Your vehicle detects this
option automatically. Depending on the
departure time which is set, the charging
process of the high-voltage battery may not
be started immediately or may be
interrupted during the process. Front compartment
Service flap
Remove the service flap to check the
battery coolant level, windshield washer
reservoir level, and brake fluid level.
Insert the service flap on the front of the
vehicle so that it does not get damaged or
dirty.
i The service flap has a strap on the rear
side that ties it to the vehicle body. G
WARNING
Always turn the key to starter switch
position 0and remove the key from the Front compartment

a cooling period of at least 30 minutes.
Otherwise, you could be seriously burned if
hot coolant escapes.
The coolant is a mixture of water and
anticorrosion/antifreeze. To check the
coolant level the vehicle must be parked on
level ground and the drive system must have
cooled down. For more information, see
„Coolants“ (Y page 213).
The battery coolant reservoir is located in
the front compartment on the driver’s side.
i The coolant expansion tank for the
battery‑ and drive system cooling is
located in the front compartment on the
left-hand side in the direction of travel. Checking coolant level
X
Allow the coolant to cool down for at least
30 minutes.
X Remove the service flap and insert it on
the front of the vehicle (Y page 117).
X Perform avisual check of the fluid level
in coolant reservoir 0003.
The coolant level must be between the
markings MAX and MIN.
X If necessary, add coolant. Adding coolant X
Cover pressure cap 0002with a rag.
X Slowly turn pressure cap 0002
approximately 0001turn counterclockwise
to release any excess pressure.
X Continue turning pressure cap 0002
counterclockwise and remove it.
X Add coolant as required. The coolant
level may not exceed the maximum filling
level.
X Reinstall and tighten pressure cap 0002.
X Remount the service flap and close it
(Y page 117). Windshield/rear window washer system
Both the windshield and the rear window 6
washer are supplied from the windshield
washer reservoir.
The recommended minimum filling level is
1.06 US qt (1.0 l).
X Remove the service flap and insert it on
the front of the vehicle (Y page 117).
The windshiel dwasher reservoir is located
in the front compartment on the driver’s
side. G
WARNING
Windshield washer concentrate is highly
flammable. Fire, naked flames and smoking
are prohibited when windshield washer
concentrate is being handled.

WARNING
Windshield washer concentrate is highly
flammable. Fire, naked flames and smoking
are prohibited when windshield washer
concentrate is being handled. Coolants
The battery and drive system coolant is a
mixture of water and anticorrosion/
antifreeze, which provides:
R Corrosion protection
R Freeze protection
R Boiling protection (by increasing the
boiling point)
The cooling system was filled at the factory
with a coolant providing freeze protection
to approximatel y-35¦ (-37¥) and
corrosion protection.
! Add premixed coolant solution only.
Adding water and MB 325.0
Anticorrosion/Antifreeze separately
from each other, could cause drive system
damage not covered by the smart Limited
Warranty.
If the antifreeze mixture is effective to
-35¦ (-37¥), the boiling point of the
coolant in the pressurized cooling system
is reached at approximately 266¦
(130¥ ).
The coolant solution must be used year
round, even in countries which have high
temperatures to provide the necessary
corrosion protection and increase
boil‑over protection. Refer to
Maintenance/ Service Booklet for
replacement interval.
Coolant system design and coolant used
determine the replacement interval. The
replacement interval published in the
Maintenance booklet is only applicable if
MB 325.0 Anticorrosion/Antifreeze
solution or other smart approved products
of equal specification are used to renew the coolant concentration or bring it back
up to the proper level.
For information on other smart approved
products of equal specification, contact an
authorized electric drive smart center.
To provide important corrosion
protection, the solution must be at least
50% anticorrosion/antifreeze (equivalent
to freeze protection to approximately
-35¦
[-37¥]).
If you use a solution that is more than 55%
anticorrosion/antifreeze (freeze
protection to approximately -49 ¦
[(-45¥]), the drive system and battery
temperature will increas edue to the lower
heat transfer capability of the solution.
Therefore, do not use more than this amount
of anticorrosion/antifreeze.
If the coolant level is low, water and
MB 325.0 Anticorrosion/Antifreeze should
be used to bring it up to the proper level
(have cooling system checked for signs of
leakage). Please make sure the mixture is
in accordance with label instructions.
Always use anticorrosion/antifreeze that
has been approved by smart. For
information contact an authorized electric
drive smart center.
The water in the cooling system must meet
minimum requirements, which are usually
satisfied by normal drinking water.
If you are not sure about the water quality,
consult an authorized electric drive smart
center.
