Important limits

  • Departure times are shared rather than stored separately for each charge program.
  • The selected charge limit directly limits the high-voltage battery target.
  • Mercedes-AMG restrictions described in the manual do not apply to the GLE 450e scope of this guide.
If it does not work

Quick checks.

  • ✓Re-save the current address if the Home or Work prompt does not appear on return.
