Optimizing driving style
Performance display
Your driving style can be optimized using the
performance display in ECO PRO mode.
Your driving style is efficient as long as the accel‐
erator pedal pointer is within the lower range
highlighted in blue during acceleration and decel‐
eration.
The energy recovery occurs during coasting and
braking and is displayed in the performance dis‐
play by the accelerator pedal indicator.
The accelerator pedal pointer is within the
CHARGE range.
Efficient energy recovery:
The accelerator pedal moves to the left within
the blue range of the CHARGE display, ar‐
row 1.
The energy use while driving can be opti‐
mized by efficient acceleration.
Efficient acceleration:
The accelerator pedal moves to the right
within the blue range of the eDRIVE display,
arrow 2.
Use deceleration during coasting as often as
possible for energy recovery.
Using driving modes and assistance
systems
Max eDRIVE
Max eDRIVE, refer to page 103, forces electric
driving. Electric driving is especially efficient for
short distances, low to medium speeds and in
stop-and-go traffic.
Maintaining charge state
The function, refer to page 102, conserves the
electric range for a later point in time. In this
case, the vehicle is driven primarily by the com‐
bustion engine.
ECO PRO
ECO PRO, refer to page 194, supports a driving
style that saves on fuel consumption. For this
purpose, the engine control and comfort fea‐
tures, for instance the climate control output, are
adjusted.
Discharge of the high-voltage battery
General information
Longer idle periods, refer to page 242, can re‐
duce the charge state of the high-voltage bat‐
tery.
Safety information
NOTICE
The high-voltage battery can be damaged by
excessive discharge. There is a risk of damage
to property. Before storing the vehicle for an
extended period, ensure that the high-voltage
battery is fully charged. During the idle period,
connect the vehicle to a charging station at a
compatible charging location. If necessary, the
high-voltage battery will be charged automati‐
cally. Make sure that the charging process
takes place. Regularly check the charge state.
Do not allow the vehicle to sit idle for longer
than four weeks with a charge state below ap‐
prox. 80 %.
