WARNING
Follow the recommended settings for
heating and cooling given on the following
pages .Otherwise the windows could fog up,
impairing visibility and endangering you
and others.
The air conditionin gimproves the leve lof
comfort when driving at high outside
temperatures by cooling and
dehumidifying the air.
Nearly all dust particles, pollutants, are
filtered out by an integrated particle
filter before outside air enters the
passenger compartment through the air
distribution system .It also operates when
the air conditioning is switched off and
you have switched on the blower.
The dehumidification of the air by the air
conditioner prevents the windows from
misting up when the outside air humidity
is high.
This effect can also be used to defrost the
windows. For this, make sure, in addition
to the air conditioner, that the heater is
on the maximum setting.
The air conditioner only works when:
R the ignition is switched on
R the blower is switched on
R the driver's door is closed
Maximum effectiveness is achieved if you
drive with the windows closed.
If the operating temperature of the
high‑voltage battery is too high, the
high‑voltage battery is cooled by the air
conditioner. When the air conditioner
switches on, the cooling output in the
vehicle's interior is reduced as a result.
The temperature in the vehicle's interior
may rise briefly.
If the air conditioner is not switched on,
the compressor of the air conditioner and Air conditioning with climate control

the vehicle's cooling fan are switched on
automatically. This cools the high‑voltage
battery but not the vehicle's interior .When
the high‑voltage battery reaches the
nominal temperature again, the air
conditioner switches off automatically.
i The range of the vehicle is decreased
when the air conditioner is switched on.
i In warmer weather, ventilate the
passenger compartment for a short
period of time before utilizing the air
conditioning.
Further information on the "Air
conditioning before start" function can be
found on (Y page 86).96

If you leave the charging cable in the power
supply socket after charging, the set value
is used for the next charging process.
If you remove the charging cable from the
power supply socket, the value is reset to
the default value for the next charging
process.
i You can also set the maximum charge
current via the control system
(Y page 88).
If differing values are set on the
charging cable and the control system,
the high‑voltage battery is charged
using the lowest value.

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 coolant level must be between the
markings MAX and MIN.
X If necessary, add coolant. Adding coolant X

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.

213>> Technical data. Z

Anticorrosion/antifreeze
Your vehicle contains a number of
aluminum parts. The use of aluminum
components in motor vehicle drive systems
necessitates that anticorrosion/
antifreeze coolant used in such drive
systems be specifically formulated to
protect the aluminum parts.
Failure to use such anticorrosion/
antifreeze coolant will result in a
significantly shortened service life.
Therefore, the following product is
strongly recommended for use in your
vehicle: MB 325.0 Anticorrosion/
Antifreeze agent.
Before the start of the winter season (or
once a year in hot southern regions), you
should have the anticorrosion/antifreeze
concentration checked.
The coolant is also regularly checked each
time you bring your vehicle to an
authorized electric drive smart center for
service.
