Using the high-voltage disconnect device in the
engine compartment
Only disconnect the drive system manually under
prerequisites in the specified situations.
#
Open the bonnet.
#
Press release tab
1
in the direction of the
arrow and pull it out.
#
Pull high-voltage disconnect device
2
in the
direction of the arrow until it engages.
The drive system has been disconnected. The
capacitors of the vehicle's high-voltage electri-
cal system are completely discharged after one
minute at the earliest.
All work on the drive system may only be carried
out at a qualified specialist workshop, even if it has
been deactivated manually.
Using the high-voltage rescue separation point in
the seat base of the right-hand front seat
The drive system may only be manually disconnec-
ted in the situations mentioned above under
Requirements. The high-voltage rescue separation
point is located in the seat base of the right-hand
front seat and is only to be used in an emergency
by rescue teams.
#
Open the seat base of the right-hand front

Regenerative brake system
▌
Function of the regenerative brake system
Depending on the selected recuperation level, the
electric motor is operated as an alternator when in
overrun mode and during braking in order to
charge the high-voltage battery while driving. As
soon as you release the accelerator pedal when
the vehicle is in motion, recuperation in overrun
mode is initiated.
The regenerative brake system has the following
characteristics:
R
supports braking with an electronically control-
led brake force boosting
R
converts the kinetic energy of the vehicle into
electric energy
You can use the steering wheel gearshift paddles
to manually adjust the intensity of recuperation in
overrun mode (
