Please do not forget that your primary
responsibility is to drive the vehicle
safely. Only operate the radio or
telephone 8
if road, weather and traffic
conditions permit.
Bear in mind that at a speed of just 30 mph
(approximately 50 km/h), your vehicle is
covering adistance of 44 feet
(approximately 14 m) every second.
Telephones and two-way radios G
WARNING
Never operate radio transmitters equipped
with a built-in or attached antenna (i.e.
without being connected to an external antenna) from inside the vehicle while the
drive system is switched on. Doing so could
lead to a malfunction of the vehicle’s
electronic system, possibly resulting in an
accident and/or serious personal injury.
Radio transmitters, such as a mobile phone
or a citizens band unit should only be used
inside the vehicle if they are connected to
an antenna that is installed on the outside
of the vehicle.
Refer to the radio transmitter operation
instructions regarding use of an external
antenna. Coolant temperature
During severe operating conditions and
stop-and-go city traffic, the coolant
temperature may rise.
! Excessive coolant temperature causes
the red coolant temperature warning
lamp 0005 in the instrument cluster to
come on.
The drive system should not be operated
with the red coolant temperature
warning lamp 0005illuminated. Doing
so may cause serious damage to the drive
system and the high-voltage battery,
which is not covered by the smart Limited
Warranty.
For more information on coolant
temperature warning lamp ( Ypage 165). Driving abroad
Abroad, there is an extensive smart service
network at your disposal. If you plan to
drive into areas which are not listed in the
index of your smart center directory, you
should request pertinent information from
an authorized electric drive smart center.

Retrofitting electrica
land electronic
devices
Electrical and electronic devices can
endanger vehicle operating safety.
! Damage or consequential damage due to
retrofitting a device in the vehicle is
not covered by smart’s warranty.
If you install telephones or radio
transmitters in the vehicle you must have
such retrofits approved. smart approves
the installation of telephones and radio
devices if the work is done professionally
and the device is connected to a low-
reflection exterior antenna.
The transmitting power of the telephone or
radio must not exceed the following
maximum values. Frequency range

WARNING
Radio transmitters can interfere with the
vehicle’s electronic system, endanger the
operating safety of the vehicle and thus
your own safety, if
R there is no external antenna
R the external antenna is not low-
reflection
R the external antenna is incorrectly
installed
Excessive electromagnetic radiation can
damage your health and that of others.
Using an external antenna addresses and
considers the concerns currently being
discussed in scientific circles about the health hazards possibly posed by
electromagnetic fields.
Because of this, have the external antenna
installed exclusively at a qualified
specialist workshop which has the
necessary specialist knowledge and tools
to carry out the work required, e.g. at a
smart center. In particular, work relevant
to safety or on safety-related systems must
be carried out at a qualified specialist
workshop.
