Function of flexible all-wheel distribution

The flexible all-wheel distribution means the
drive is always ideally distributed between the
two axles. Depending on the situation, only the
front axle or only the rear axle can be driven, or
the drive can be distributed continuously
between both axles.
This allows the maximum recurrent delay to be
achieved (
/
tion increases the vehicle's range.
Together with ESP
wheel distribution improves the traction of your
vehicle whenever a driven wheel spins due to
insufficient traction.

/
If you fail to adapt your driving style, the flexible
all-wheel distribution can neither reduce the risk
of accident nor override the laws of physics. It
cannot take into account road, weather or traffic
conditions. The flexible all-wheel distribution is
only an aid. You are responsible especially for
maintaining a safe distance from the vehicle in
front, for vehicle speed, for braking in good time
and for staying in lane.
% In wintry road conditions, the maximum
effect of the flexible all-wheel distribution
can be achieved only if you use winter tyres
(M+S tyres), with snow chains if necessary.

Charging the high-voltage battery

Notes on charging the high-voltage battery
* NOTE Accelerated ageing of the high-
voltage battery due to frequent charging
to full
Frequent charging to full (charge level 100%)
charging of the high-voltage battery, espe‐
cially when this process is not directly fol‐
lowed by a journey, accelerates the ageing of
the high-voltage battery.
Charge the high-voltage battery on
#
average to a charge level of 80%.
Beyond a charge level of 80%, the
charging time is considerably pro‐
longed.
