The driving style is efficient as long as the ac‐
celerator pedal pointer is within the lower
range highlighted in blue during acceleration
and deceleration.
The energy recovery occurs during coasting
and braking and is displayed in the perform‐
ance display 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 dis‐
play, arrow 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 dis‐
play, arrow 2.
▷ Use deceleration during coasting as often
as possible for energy recovery.
Brake according to traffic and circum‐
stances
Brake in accordance with the traffic conditions,
or there is the risk of accident.◀
Using drive modes and assistance
systems
Max eDRIVE
Max eDRIVE, refer to page 64, forces electric
driving. Electric driving is especially efficient
for short distances, low to medium speeds and
in stop-and-go traffic.
SAVE battery
SAVE Battery, refer to page 64, conserves the
electric range for a later point in time. In this
case, the vehicle is driven primarily by the
combustion engine.
ECO PRO
ECO PRO, refer to page 145, supports a driv‐
ing style that saves on fuel consumption. For
this purpose, the engine control and comfort
features, e. g. the climate control output, are
adjusted.
Discharge of the high-voltage battery
Longer idle periods, refer to page 190, can re‐
duce the charging state of the high-voltage
battery.
Do not allow the vehicle to sit idle for ex‐
tended periods with a low charging state
Before storing the vehicle for an extended pe‐
riod, check the battery charge indicator to en‐
sure that the high-voltage battery is fully
charged. During the idle period, connect the
vehicle to a charging station at a suitable
charging location. If necessary, the high-volt‐
age battery will be charged automatically.
Make sure that the charging process takes
place. Regularly check the charging state.
Don't allow battery charge status to drop too
low - it will damage the battery.◀
