partner which is qualified for smart elec-
tric drive.
Particular care should be taken involving
all areas which are in the vicinity of high
voltage parts, e.g. parts in the engine com-
partment. Orange-colored cables and their
respective sockets carry high voltage and
must not be damaged.
Serious injury or death can result if you:
R remove the covers of components which
are labeled with a warning sticker.
R handle components of the high-voltage
vehicle electrical system.
R open the housing.
R disconnect plug connectors.
R come into contact with components or
orange-colored cables of the high-volt-
age vehicle electrical system following
an accident.
R come into contact with orange-colored
cables or their damaged plug connectors.
R come into contact with damaged compo-
nents of the high-voltage vehicle elec-
trical system.
Have the damaged orange-colored cables or
their damaged plug connectors replaced
immediately at an authorized electric
drive smart center. The service partner
must have the required knowledge and tools
to carry out the necessary work. For safety
reasons, smart recommends using a smart
center which is qualified for smart elec-
tric drive. Particularly for safety-rele-
vant work and work on safety-relevant vehi-
cle systems, servicing by an authorized
electric drive smart center is essential.
Do not remove the high-voltage battery of
the high-voltage vehicle electrical sys-
tem. Have the required work carried out by
an authorized electric drive smart center.
smart recommends that you use an author-
ized electric drive smart center. G
WARNING
The high‑voltage battery of the drive sys-
tem is located under the vehicle’s under-
body. When the pressure inside the
high‑voltage battery exceeds a certain
value, for example in case of a vehicle fire,
inflammable gas will escape via a duct. The
inflammable gas escapes to an area under
the vehicle. This prevents the high‑voltage
battery from exploding.
Stay away from this area of the vehicle.
When you carry out common works like
replacing bulbs or checking coolant level,
make sure that
R the ignition is switched off
R the charging cable for the high-voltage
battery is disconnected. Automatic switch-off of the high-volt-
age system
The high-voltage system will be automati-
cally switched off, in the event:
R of an accident in which the restraint
systems are triggered
R of a short circuit in the high-voltage
system is detected
R that an electric connection in the high-
voltage system has been disconnected
This helps to avoid that you get in contact
with high-voltage. High-voltage battery

smart center if you have any questions.
X Next, set the value of the charge current
to the desired value once again.
As soon as the vehicle establishes an Inter-
net connection, you can also use the "Vehi-
cle Homepage" at home during the charging
process. Changes you have made via the
"Vehicle Homepage" are adopted after the
charging process is complete. This data
transmission ends after approximately
three days. Intelligent charging management
If you wish to charge economically and with
minimal damage to the battery, you must set
a departure time ( Ypage 90). 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 inter-
rupted during the process. Front compartment

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/anti-
freeze, 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 approximately -35¦ (-37¥) and cor-
rosion protection.
! Add premixed coolant solution only.
Adding water and MB 325.0 Anticorro-
sion/Antifreeze separately from each
other, could cause drive system damage
not covered by the smart Limited War-
ranty.
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 cor-
rosion 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 solu-
tion 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 protec-
tion, the solution must be at least 50% anti-
corrosion/antifreeze (equivalent to freeze
protection to approximately -35¦
[-37¥]).
If you use a solution that is more than 55%
anticorrosion/antifreeze (freeze protec-
tion to approximately -49
¦[(-45 ¥]), the
drive system and battery temperature will
increase due to the lower heat transfer
capability of the solution. Therefore, do
not use more than this amount of anticor-
rosion/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 informa-
tion 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.
