ing the high-voltage battery in an electric
vehicle.
Never use damaged charging cables.
#
Do not extend the charging cable.
#
Do not use adapters.
#
Observe the safety notes in the operat-
#
ing instructions for the wallbox.
If charging at a wallbox without pre-installed
cable, use the optionally available charging cable
for wallbox and charging station (mode 3). The
charging cable is stowed in a bag in the boot/
luggage compartment.
Only use charging cables that have been tested
and approved by the manufacturer for charging
the high-voltage battery in an electric vehicle.
& DANGER Risk of fatal injury due to dam-
aged components
Connecting the vehicle to a charging station
using damaged component parts could cause
a fire or an electric shock, for example.
Perform a visual check of the charging
#
station for obvious defects, for example
damage to the housing or charging cable
connection.
Never use damaged charging cables.

cable.
Do not use adapters.
#
Always observe the safety instructions
#
on the charging station.
Most charging stations must be activated before
the charging process, e.g. using an RFID card or
via Plug-and-Charge. Observe the on-site opera-
tor's instructions for the charging station and the
notes on Mercedes me Charge (
The amount of energy dispensed for the charging
process, shown by the charging station, may be
higher than the amount of energy actually absor-
bed by the high-voltage battery. This is the result
of different levels of charging losses and is descri-
bed as recharge efficiency. Charging losses occur,
for example, due to heat that builds up when the
vehicle is charging or from auxiliary consumers

that are switched on. Further information on
recharge efficiency can be obtained at a qualified
specialist workshop.
