Operation Manual

Calling up functions in the "My
Mercedes Electric - Vehicle Homepage"
The "My Mercedes Electric - Vehicle Home-
page" allows you access to information about
your vehicle and its functions using remote
query and remote configuration. For example,
climate control can be activated using remote
configuration which means that it need not be
set in the vehicle. Power for the climate con-
trol is primarily supplied via the charging
cable connected to the mains supply. In this
way, the range of the vehicle in most cases is
not reduced. If climate control is activated,
the battery charge level and thus the range
may be reduced. The "Vehicle Homepage"
provides you with information all about how
to use your vehicle.
If the vehicle is entered in your personal area
of the "Vehicle Homepage", you can also
access the following functions:
R
request the current condition of charge of
the high-voltage battery
R
program the departure time (Y page 195)
R
order and activate the "Pre-entry climate
control at departure time" function
If the vehicle is charging, the predicted charg-
ing time and the predicted range will also be
shown.
This data is estimated and may be influenced
by the following factors:
R
outside temperature
R
switched on consumers, e.g. climate con-
trol and seat heating
R
personal driving style
R
road and traffic conditions
R
route characteristics
Therefore, allow for a sufficient reserve.

Information on additional functions and
operating instructions can be found on the
"Vehicle Homepage".
Connecting the vehicle to the Internet
Via a radio module
This function is not available in all countries
and requires an activated mbrace access.
You can use the "Vehicle Homepage" if the
vehicle has a connection to the Internet via a
mobile phone. The radio module uses a
mobile phone connection and transmits the
necessary data by radio. The vehicle auto-
matically recognizes whether a connection to
the Internet via the radio module is possible
or not. No presets are necessary.
To enable the transfer of data via the mobile
communications module, you do not need a
SIM card.
i
Restrictions in reception are possible if
the vehicle is in an underground car park,
for example. Restrictions may also occur in
areas with poor mobile network coverage.
