Charging the high-voltage battery
when stationary (hybrid vehicles)
Only PLUG-IN HYBRID vehicles are equipped
with a high-voltage battery.
G
WARNING
Combustion engines emit poisonous exhaust
gases such as carbon monoxide. Inhaling
these exhaust gases leads to poisoning. There
is a risk of fatal injury. Therefore never leave
the engine running in enclosed spaces with-
out sufficient ventilation.
!
Only charge the high-voltage battery in the
"Charging when stationary" mode. Do not
connect any battery chargers to the high-volt-
age battery. This could damage the vehicle’s
high-voltage electrical system.
X
Bring the vehicle to a stop with the engine
running.
The engine powers the electric motor. The
electric motor operates as a generator. The
high-voltage battery is being charged.
If the high-voltage battery has been discharged
excessively, charge the high-voltage battery to
at least 60%. In "Charging while stationary"
mode, you can monitor the condition of charge
of the high-voltage battery up to a maximum of
70% in the COMAND display and the multifunc-
tion display (
Y page 248).
