Driving
WARNING
●
If the inertia mode has been switched on,
take into account, when approaching an
obstacle, that the vehicle will not deceler-
ate in the usual manner: risk of accident!
●
When using inertia mode while travelling
down hills, the vehicle can increase speed:
risk of accident!
●
If other users drive your vehicle, warn
them about inertia mode.
Note
●
The driver message Inertia is only dis-
played with the current consumption. In in-
ertia mode the gear will no longer be dis-
played (for example “D” or “E” will appear
instead of “D7” or “E7”).
●
The inertia mode will be automatically
disconnected on gradients steeper than
15%.
