Three segments: maximum power is
R
available.
Two segments: Less than 66 % amount of
R
power is available.
One segment: Less than 33 % amount of
R
power is available.
Under normal operating conditions the
indicator for the maximum power is at the
maximum range :.
The available amount of power can vary
from the the maximum range due to:
very high or low outside temperatures
R
very high power demand over a long time
R
period
very low charge level of the high-voltage
R
battery
By charging the high-voltage battery, the
reduced availability of power can be
improved ( page 114).

ECO indicator

ECO indicator : helps you to optimize
your driving style. The energy consumption
of your vehicle can be reduced and the
cruising range can be increased.
The calculated ECO value in percent indi-
cates if and how your driving style differs
from an ideal driving style (100 %).
It is calculated from the dynamic factors
acceleration
R
braking behavior
R
constant driving
R
Feedback is provided by:
your driving style when accelerating and
R
coasting
If you accelerate evenly and moder-
-
ately, the ECO value increases. If you
accelerate hard, the ECO value
decreases.
Anticipatory, constant driving and
-
coasting without sudden braking
increases the ECO value.
the uniformity of your driving style
R
If you accelerate moderately, take your
-
foot off the accelerator pedal early
and avoid frequent braking, your driv-
ing style is constant and uniform.Thus,
the ECO value increases.
The ECO indicator summarizes the driving
characteristics from the start of the jour-
ney to its completion. For this reason, it
changes dynamically at the beginning of
the journey.
After a prolonged standstill of the vehicle,
ECO indicator display : always starts at
a value of 50 %.
Resetting the YSTART START
sets the value of the ECO indicator back to
50 %.
The ECO-value is displayed:
while driving

In place of the ECO display, battery charge
level : and charging time ; appear , if:
the high‑voltage battery is being

charged
the key is in starter switch position 1.
