Let the fun begin
This Quick Guide will quickly and
efficiently inform you about the most
important functions of your vehicle. It
does not, however, in any way, replace the
Operator’s Manual.
This is especially significant with regard
to warnings and cautions. This Quick Guide
should only be used as a reference.
Therefore it is imperative that you read
the Operator’s Manual carefully and
completely before your first drive, paying
special attention to the chapter “Safety”.
Doing so will help you obtain the maximum
pleasure from your vehicle and avoid
endangering yourself and others.
Items of optional equipment are marked
with an asterisk *. The equipment in your
vehicle may vary, depending on the model
and availability.
smart is constantly updating its vehicles
to the very latest state of the art and
therefore reserves the right to introduce
changes in design, equipment and
technical features at any time. You cannot,
therefore, base any claims on the data,
illustrations or descriptions in this Quick
Guide.
The Operator’s Manual, Quick Guide and
Maintenance/Warranty Booklet (USA only)
or Service/Warranty Booklet (Canada only)
belong to the vehicle. You should always
keep these documents in the vehicle and
make sure that you pass them on to the next
owner if and when you come to sell your
smart.
Please contact an authorized smart center
if you have any further questions.
The Technical Documentation team at
Daimler wishes you many happy hours at the
wheel.
GWarning!
Various warning stickers are affixed to
your vehicle. Their purpose is to draw your
attention, and the attention of others, to
various dangers. Therefore, do not remove
any warning stickers unless the sticker
clearly states that you may do so. If you
remove the warning stickers, you or others
could be injured by failing to recognize
certain dangers.
