Characteristics when the accelerator pedal is
released during the journey:
R
The electric motor will be operated as an alter-
nator when in overrun mode and during brak-
ing.
R
The high-voltage battery is charging.
Notes on electric mode:
R
Vehicles with hybrid systems generate signifi-
cantly less noise when stationary and when
being driven than vehicles with combustion
engines.
R
When you are driving in electric mode, the
vehicle may not be heard by other road users
due to the significantly reduced noise gener-
ated.
It is for this reason that the vehicle is equip-
ped with a sound generator, which serves as
an acoustic vehicle alert system (AVAS).
R
If not all the vehicle conditions for electric
mode are met, the combustion engine will be
switched on.
%
Vehicles with diesel particulate filters: during
the regeneration of the diesel particulate fil-
ter, the drive programmes are not available or
are restricted and the charge level of the high-
voltage battery may change.
Notes on the acoustic vehicle alert system:
R
The sound generator generates speed-depend-
ent vehicle noise emissions when the vehicle
is driving forwards or reversing at a speed of
up to around 30 km/h.
R
This helps other road users, particularly
pedestrians and cyclists, to hear your vehicle
better.
R
When you drive at speeds above 20 km/h the
acoustic vehicle alert system will gradually
switch off.
R
The sound generator will be off when the vehi-
cle is stationary.

DANGER Risk of death and fire due to
modified and/or damaged components of
the high-voltage on-board electrical sys-
tem
The vehicle's high-voltage on-board electrical
system is under high voltage. If you modify
component parts in the vehicle's high-voltage
on-board electrical system or touch damaged
component parts, you may be electrocuted. In
addition, modified and/or damaged compo-
nents may cause a fire.
In the event of an accident or impact to the
vehicle underbody, components of the high-
voltage electrical system may be damaged
although the damage is not visible.
#
Never make any modifications to the
high-voltage on-board electrical system.
#
Do not switch on or use the vehicle if its
high-voltage on-board electrical system
components have been modified or dam-
aged.
