Warning
When driving in electric mode, pedes-
trians and other traffic might pay less at-
tention to the vehicle due to the lack of
engine noise. There is a risk of accident.
Adjust driving style to traffic conditions.
Watch traffic closely and actively inter-
vene where appropriate.
Warning
Without energy recovery, there is no brak-
ing power of the electric motor available.
The vehicle could roll further than antici-
pated. There is a risk of accident. Adjust
driving style to traffic conditions. Watch
traffic closely and actively intervene
where appropriate.

Deceleration
Releasing the accelerator pedal causes de-
celeration similar to cautious braking. Addi-
tionally, the brake lights will come on with-
out hitting the brakes.
The degree of the deceleration depends on
the energy recovery, refer to page 106 , set-
ting.
During the deceleration, energy is recov-
ered and the high-voltage battery is
charged.
Energy recovery: CHARGE
The high-voltage battery is recharged in
part through energy recovery. The electric
motor acts as a generator when decelerating
and converts the kinetic energy into electri-
cal energy.
Energy can be recovered if the following
conditions are met:
– The vehicle is moving.
– Speed higher than approx.
12 mph/20 km/h.
– Selector lever position D or R is set.
– Accelerator pedal is not actuated or only
pressed down one third of the way.
Energy cannot be recovered in the following
situations:
– Selector lever position N is engaged.
– While drive stability control systems,
for instance DTC, are active and control-
ling the vehicle, even though this is not
indicated by an indicator light.
– The high-voltage battery is fully
charged.
– When temperature of the high-voltage
battery is very low or very high.
In winter it might be possible that the
energy recovery is temporarily unavaila-
ble after startup.
Exemplary traffic situations
If a deceleration operation is foreseeable
while driving, this can be used for energy
recovery.
The following exemplary driving situations
may be suitable:
