Always make sure that the range is sufficient
for the planned trip. The range is dynamic and

There is an increased risk of ice on roads.
Range with active guidance
When the vehicle is stationary or at low speed,
the temperature displayed may differ slightly
from the actual outside temperature due to ex-

Safety information
Heavily discharged high-voltage
battery
Warning
The high-voltage battery is
heavily discharged. The drive
power will be reduced. Heating
and climate control functions will
be deactivated.
Even at temperatures above +37 ℉/+3 ℃
there is a risk of icy roads, for instance on
bridges or shady sections of the road. There
is a risk of accident, injury, and property dam-
age. Modify your driving style to the weather
conditions at low temperatures.
In this state, the exact range can no longer be
calculated. A short range may still be available
depending on the environmental condition.

Re-establishing the drive-ready state can help
increase the range slightly, for instance to re-

Principle
The charging screen displays information

cluster.
State of charge in strong
temperature fluctuations
In the case of strong temperature fluctuations
and a low state of charge of the high-voltage
battery, it may not be possible to start the ve-

Warning
The system cannot serve as a substitute for
the driver’s personal judgment in assessing
the traffic situation. Based on the limits of
the system, it cannot independently react to
all traffic situations. There is a risk of acci-
dent, injury, and property damage. Adjust
driving style to traffic conditions. Watch the
surrounding traffic situation closely, be ready
to take over steering and braking at any time,
and actively intervene where appropriate.

G-Meter
State of charge indicator
Safety information
Warning
General information
The G-Meter indicates the forces that are ap-
plied in longitudinal and transverse direction
on the vehicle occupants while driving.
Even when it is indicated that the high-volt-
age battery is discharged, the high-voltage
system is always still under high voltage.
There is a risk of fire or a risk of injury. Do
not touch or change live parts, e.g., orange
high-voltage cables, even when the batteries
are discharged.
The display can be configured on the central
display range of the instrument cluster.
The values are automatically reset whenever
you start a new drive.

Overview
When standby and drive-ready

The range prediction indicates the extent to
which the range can be influenced with the
current driving style. This supports an efficient
driving style.
Range prediction with active
guidance
With active guidance, the distance to the des-
tination and the expected charge state of the
high-voltage battery when the destination is
reached are also displayed.
General information
The current range is influenced by many fac-
tors, including speed.
The range trend shows the expected develop-
ment of the range with the current driving style.
The range trend is based on the average elec-
trical consumption that is calculated for the di-
rectly traveled route section.
