The thorax-pelvis side air bags are inte-
grated into the driver and passenger seat
backrests. :
Thorax-pelvis side air bags Occupant Classification System
The Occupant Classification System (OCS)
automatically turns the passenger front air bag on or off based on the classified occu-pant weight category determined by weight
sensor readings from the passenger seat.
i Based on the classified occupant
weight category determined by weight
sensor readings from the passenger seat,
the system does also deactivate
R head-thorax air bag (cabriolet)
R the window curtain air bag (coupé)
R the thorax-pelvis side air bag (coupé)
R the seat Emergency Tensioning Devi-
ces
R the seat belt force limiter.
Occupants must sit properly belted in a
position that is as upright as possible with their back against the seat backrest and
feet on the floor to be correctly classified.
If the occupant’s weight is transferred to
another object in the vehicle (e.g. by lean-
ing on armrests), the OCS may not be able to properly approximate the occupant’s
weight category.
i If the seat, including the trim cover and
cushion, needs to be serviced in any way, take the vehicle to an authorized elec- tric drive smart center. Only seat acces-
sories approved by smart may be used.
Both driver and the passenger should
always use the 40indicator
lamp as an indication of whether or not
the passenger is properly positioned
(Y page 41). G
WARNING
If the 40indicator lamp illu-
minates when an adult or someone larger
than a small individual is in the passenger seat, have the passenger re-position him-
self or herself in the seat until the
40indicator lamp goes out.
In the event of a collision, the air bag con- trol unit will not allow passenger front air
bag deployment when the OCS has classified
the passenger seat occupant as being up to
or less than the weight of a typical
12‑month‑old child in a standard child
restraint, or if the passenger seat is
sensed as being empty.
When the OCS senses that the passenger seat occupant is classified as being up to or
less than the weight of a typical
12‑month‑old child in a standard child
restraint, the 40indicator
lamp will illuminate when the ignition is
switched on and remain illuminated, indi-
cating that the passenger front air bag is
deactivated.
When the OCS senses that the passenger seat is classified as being empty, the
40indicator lamp will illu-
minate and remains illuminated.
When the OCS senses that the passenger seat occupant is classified as being heavier
than the weight of a typical 12‑month‑old
child seated in a standard child restraint
or as being a small individual (such as a
young teenager or a small adult), the
40indicator lamp will illu-
minate for approximately 4 seconds when
the ignition is switched on and then,
depending on occupant weight sensor read- Occupant safety

ted values because, for example, they are
influenced by the following factors:
R outside temperature
R active electrical consumers, e.g. air
conditioning, lights
R personal driving style
R traffic conditions
Plan for a sufficient reserve accordingly.
Connecting the vehicle to the Internet Via mobile service module
i This function is only available if the
vehicle is equipped with a mobile ser-
vice module.
You can use the “Vehicle Homepage” when
the vehicle has connected to the Internet
via the mobile service module. The mobile
service module uses GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) and transfers the
required data via radio transmission. The
vehicle automatically detects if a connec- tion to the Internet via the mobile service module is available or not. No pre-settings
need to be done.
In order to use data transfer via the mobile
service module you do not need a SIM card
and no contract.
i There may be service limitations if the
vehicle is located for example in a
underground garage. Service limita-
tions may also appear in areas with poor
mobile service coverage. In theses cases
you can launch the Internet connection
via powerline (Y page 122).
Via powerline
You can also access the “Vehicle Homepage”
if you do not have GSM reception. This is
possible for example via your DSL router.
This connection is built by the plugged in charging cable with the aid of the power-
line technology.
The vehicle supports powerline communi-
cation according to the "HomePlug AV" standard. Data is transmitted via phase L1
and the neutral conductor of the power line.
In order for the vehicle to access the Inter-net, you require a commercially available
adapter of the "HomePlug AV" standard.
This adapter must also have an encryption
button so that it can be configured to com-
municate with the vehicle. Connect the
adapter to the power supply as well as your Internet connection. If the adapter is con-
nected to different phase than L1, a phase
coupler must be additionally installed.
Only in this way can stable communication
be guaranteed. For questions, consult a
qualified electrician.
i If you already have a powerline network
installed, the vehicle can be integrated
into it.
To establish a connection between the
vehicle and a powerline adapter, carry out
the following:
X Connect the vehicle to a power socket or a
wallbox.
The right #indicator lamp on the
vehicle socket must flash green.
X Insert the powerline adapter into a
neighboring power socket. Observe that
the vehicle and the adapter are connec-
ted via phase L1.
X Switch on the ignition.
X Call up the Charge current
Charge current menu on the
control system (Y page 92).
Carry out the following steps within
30 seconds: X If the value of the charge current is not
set to 8 A:set the value to 8 A and confirm.
X Set the value of the charge current to 12 A
and confirm.
X Set the value of the charge current to 8 A
and confirm. 122

cargo load capacities (Y page 134).Direction of rotation
Unidirectional tires offer added advan-
tages, such as better hydroplaning per-
formance. To benefit, however, you must
make sure the tires rotate in the direction
specified.
An arrow on the sidewall indicates the
intended direction of rotation (spinning)
of the tire. Tire care and maintenance
G
WARNING
Regularly check the tires for damage. Dam- aged tires can cause tire inflation pres-
sure loss. As a result, you could lose control
of your vehicle.
Worn, old tires can cause accidents. If the
tire tread is badly worn, or if the tires have
sustained damage, replace them.
Check the tire inflation pressure at least
once a month. For more information on
checking tire inflation pressure, see
“Recommended tire inflation pressure”
(Y page 128).
Tire inspection Every time you check the tire inflation
pressure, you should also inspect your
tires for the following
R excessive treadwear (Y page 137)
R cord or fabric showing through the tire’s
rubber
R bumps, bulges, cuts, cracks or splits in
the tread or side of the tire
Replace the tire if you find any of the above conditions. Life of tire G
WARNING
Tires should be replaced after 6 years,
regardless of the remaining tread.
The service life of a tire is dependent upon varying factors including but not limited
to
R driving style
R tire inflation pressure
R distance driven
Tread depth G
WARNING
Although the applicable federal motor
vehicle safety laws consider a tire to be
worn when the treadwear indicators (TWI)
become visible at approximately 1
/ 16 in
(1.6 mm), we recommend that you do not allow your tires to wear down to that level. As
tread depth approaches 1
/ 8 in (3 mm), the
adhesion properties on a wet road are
sharply reduced.
Depending upon the weather and/or road
surface (conditions), the tire traction var- ies widely.
Do not allow your tires to wear down too far. Adhesion properties on wet roads are
sharply reduced at tread depths of less than
1 / 8 in (3 mm).
Treadwear indicators (TWI) are required by law. These indicators are located in six
places on the tread circumference and
become visible at a tread depth of approx-
imately 1
/ 16 in (1.6 mm), at which point the
tire is considered worn and should be
replaced.
Recommended minimum tire tread depth:
Summer tires 1
/ 8 in (3 mm)
Winter tires 1
/ 6 in (4 mm) Tires and wheels

:appears as a solid
band across the tread.
Storing tires !
Keep unmounted tires in a cool, dry
place with as little exposure to light as
possible. Protect tires from contact with oil, grease and fuels.
Cleaning tires !
Never use a round nozzle to power wash
tires. The intense jet of water can result in damage to the tire.
Always replace a damaged tire. Uniform Tire Quality Grading Stand-
ards
The Uniform Tire Quality Grading is a U.S.
Government requirement designed to give
drivers consistent and reliable informa-
tion regarding tire performance. Tire
manufacturers are required to grade tires
based on three performance factors: tread- wear
:, traction ;, and temperature
resistance =. Although not a Government
of Canada requirement, all tires made for
sale in North America have these grades
branded on the sidewall.
i For illustration purposes only. Actual
data on tires are specific to each vehicle and may vary from data shown in above
illustration.
Quality grades can be found, where appli-
cable, on the tire sidewall between tread
shoulder and maximum section width. For
example: Treadwear Traction Temperature
200 AA A
All passenger car tires must conform to
federal safety requirements in addition to
these grades.
Treadwear The treadwear grade is a comparative rat-
ing based on the wear rate of the tire when
tested under controlled conditions on a
specified U.S. government test course. For example, a tire graded 150 would wear one
and one-half (1 1
/ 2 ) times as well on the
government course as a tire graded 100.
The relative performance of tires depends
upon the actual conditions of their use,
however, and may depart significantly from
the norm due to variations in driving hab-
its, service practices and differences in
road characteristics and climate.
Traction G
WARNING
The traction grade assigned to this tire is based on straight-ahead braking traction
tests, and does not include acceleration,
cornering, hydroplaning, or peak traction
characteristics. 138

Treadwear indicators
Narrow bands, sometimes called “wear
bars” that show across the tread of a tire
when only 1
/ 16 in (1.6 mm) of tread remains.
Uniform Tire Quality Grading Standards A tire information system that provides
consumers with ratings for a tire’s trac-
tion, temperature and treadwear. Ratings
are determined by tire manufacturers
using U.S. government testing procedures.
The ratings are molded into the sidewall of the tire.
Vehicle maximum load on the tire Load on an individual tire that is deter-
mined by distributing to each axle its
share of the maximum loaded vehicle
weight and dividing it by two. Winter driving
Before the onset of winter, have your vehi- cle winterized at an authorized electric
drive smart center.
This service includes:
R Check of anticorrosion and antifreeze
concentration.
R Addition of washer concentrate to the
water of the windshield/rear window.
Use a windshield washer concentrate
labeled for winter which is formulated
for temperatures below freezing point
(Y page 218).
R 12 V battery test. The capacity of the
12 V battery test drops with decreasing
ambient temperature.
R Tire change. Winter tires
G
WARNING
Winter tires with a tread depth of less than 1 / 6 in (4 mm) must be replaced. They are no
longer suitable for winter operation.
Always use winter tires at temperatures
below 45 ¦(7¥) and whenever wintry road
conditions prevail. Not all M+S rated tires provide special winter performance. Make
sure the tires you use show the mountain/
snowflake marking ion the tire side-
wall. These tires meet specific snow trac-
tion performance requirements of the Rub- ber Manufacturers Association (RMA) and
the Rubber Association of Canada (RAC) and
have been designed specifically for use in
snow conditions. Use of winter tires is the only way to achieve the maximum effective-
ness of the ABS and ESP ®
in winter opera-
tion.
For safe handling, make sure all mounted
winter tires are of the same make and have
the same tread design.
For information on winter tires for your
vehicle model, see the "Technical data"
section (Y page 216).
Always observe the speed rating of the win-
ter tires installed on your vehicle. If the
maximum speed for which your tires are
rated is below the speed rating of your
vehicle, you must place a notice to this
effect where it will be seen by the driver.
Such notices are available at your tire
dealer or any authorized electric drive
smart center. Snow chains*
! Remember that snow chains must always
be compatible with the tire sizes of a
vehicle. Snow chains that are approved
by smart are only permitted for the fol-
lowing tire size:
175/55 R15 on the rear axle. 146
