Operating safety
G
WARNING
Work improperly carried out on electronic
components and associated software could
cause them to cease functioning. Because
the vehicle’s electronic components are
interconnected, any modifications made
may produce an undesired effect on other
systems. Electronic malfunctions could
seriously impair the operating safety of
your vehicle.
See an authorized electric drive smart
center for repairs or modifications to
electronic components.
Improper work or modifications on other
vehicle systems could also have a negative
impact on the operating safety of the
vehicle. G
WARNING
Some safety systems only function while the
drive system is switched on. You should
therefore never switch off the drive system
while driving. G
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.
Vehicles with a warning signal for
pedestrians * emit an acoustic signal when
the vehicle speed is below 20 mph
(30 km/h). Thus, your vehicle will be better
noticed by other road users at low speeds. G
WARNING
Heavy blows against the vehicle underbody
or tires/wheels, for example when running
over an obstacle, road debris or a pothole,
may cause serious damage and impair the
operating safety of your vehicle.
If you feel a sudden significant vibration
or ride disturbance, or you suspect that
damage to your vehicle has occurred, you
should turn on your hazard warning
flashers, carefully slow down, and drive
with caution to an area which is a safe
distance from the road.
Inspect the vehicle underbody and tires/
wheels for possible damage. If the vehicle
appears unsafe, have it towed to the nearest
authorized electric drive smart center or
other maintenance or repair facility that
is qualified to work on smart electric
vehicles for further inspection or repairs. Danger of electric shock
The components of the drive system are
indicated by yellow warning labels to make
you aware of high voltage.
High‑voltage cables are orange‑colored.
G
WARNING
Due to the high-voltage technology,
electrical leads under high voltage are
installed in the vehicle. For this reason,
work on the vehicle may only be carried out
by specially trained technicians. >> Introduction.

Introduction
G
WARNING
The following factors increase the risk of
accidents:
R Excessive speed, especially in turns
R Wet and slippery road surfaces
R Following another vehicle too closely
The driving safety systems described in
this section cannot reduce these risks or
prevent the natural laws of physics from
acting on the vehicle.
Always adapt your driving style to the
prevailing road and weather and traffic conditions and keep a safe distance to
other road users and objects on the street.
i In winter operation, the maximum
effectiveness of the ABS, the hydraulic
brake assistant, and the ESP ®
is only
achieved with winter tires (Y page 140)
or snow chains* as required. Antilock Brake System (ABS)
G
WARNING
Do not pump the brake pedal. Use firm,
steady brake pedal pressure instead.
Pumping the brake pedal defeats the
purpose of the ABS and significantly
reduces braking effectiveness.
The Antilock BrakeSystem (ABS) regulates
the brake pressure so that the wheels do not
lock during braking. This allows you to
maintain the ability to steer your vehicle.
On slippery road surfaces, the ABS will
respond even to light brake pressure.
The ABS indicator lamp in the instrument
cluster (Y page 22) comes on when you
switch on the ignition. It goes out when the
drive system is active.
Braking At the instant one of the wheels is about to
lock up, a slight pulsation can be felt in
the brake pedal, indicating that the ABS is
regulating the brake pressure.
X
Keep firm and steady pressure on the
brake pedal while experiencing the
pulsation.
Continuous, steady brake pedal pressure
yields the advantages provided by the ABS,
namely braking power and the ability to
steer the vehicle.
A pulsating brake pedal can be an
indication of hazardous road conditions
and functions as a reminder to take extra
care while driving. 44
Driving safety systems>> Safety.
* optional
Page 47 of 218
Emergency brake maneuver
X
Keep continuous full pressure on the
brake pedal. G
WARNING
When the ABS is malfunctioning, the
hydraulic brake assistant and the ESP ®
are
also switched off.
When the ABS is malfunctioning, the wheels
may lock during hard braking, reducing
steering capability and extending the
braking distance. G
WARNING
The ABS cannot prevent the natural laws of
physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can
it increase brakin gor steering efficiency
beyond that afforded by the condition of the
vehicle brakes and tires or the traction
afforded. The ABS cannot prevent
accidents, including those resulting from
excessive speed in turns, following
another vehicle too closely, or
hydroplaning. Only a safe, attentive, and
skillful driver can prevent accidents. The
capabilities of an ABS equipped vehicle
must never be exploited in a reckless or
dangerous manner which could jeopardize
the user’s safety or the safety of others. Electronic Stability Program (ESP
®
)
Your vehicle is equipped with the
Electronic StabilityProgram (ESP ®
). The
ESP ®
is operational as soon as the drive
system is switched on and it monitors the
vehicle’s traction (force of adhesive
friction between the tires and the road
surface) and handling.
The ESP ®
recognizes when awheel is
spinning or if the vehicle starts to skid.
By applying brakes to the appropriate
wheel and by limiting the power output, the
ESP ®
works to stabilize the vehicle. The
ESP ®
is especially useful while driving off
and on wet or slippery road surfaces. The ESP
®
also stabilizes the vehicle during
braking and steering maneuvers.
The ESP ®
warning lamp 0004in the
instrument cluster flashes when the ESP ®
is
engaged.
The ESP ®
warning lamp 0004in the
instrument cluster comes on when you
switch on the ignition. It goes out when the
drive system is active.
Depending on the driving situation, the
ESP ®
R reduces the speed
R selectively brakes individual wheels
R equalizes the speed of the driven wheels
R stabilizes the vehicle when braking
R assists you in evasive maneuvers on all
roads G
WARNING
If the ESP ®
warning lamp 0004in the
instrument cluster flashes, proceed as
follows:
R While driving off, apply as little
throttle as possible.
R While driving, ease up on the accelerator
pedal.
R Adapt your speed and driving style to the
prevailing road conditions.
Failure to observe these guidelines could
cause the vehicle to skid.
The ESP ®
cannot prevent accidents
resulting from excessive speed. G
WARNING
The ESP ®
cannot prevent the natura llaws of
physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can
it increase the traction afforded. The
ESP ®
cannot prevent accidents, including
those resulting from excessive speed in
turns, or hydroplaning. Only a safe,
attentive, and skillful driver can prevent
accidents. The capabilities of an ESP ®
equipped vehicle must never be exploited
in a reckless or dangerous manner which Driving safety systems
