How to Charge the Smart EQ

Model: Smart Smart 451 - Years 2007-2015
Part: Checks and maintenance

Learn how to charge the Smart EQ. You can do this using a Wallbox, connecting it to the car with the supplied cable. The indicator on the connector will flash until it turns green, signalling the charging status. Once charging is complete, unlock the vehicle with the remote key to remove the cable. You can also use a household socket with the same procedure. To charge the Smart from a roadside charging point, first download the "Smart ready to" app from Playstore or Appstore, create an account by entering your details including the registration number and a password, and choose your payment method: either Mobility pack or credit card. When you reach the charging point, scan your card, connect the vehicle with the supplied cable, and the app will provide the charging status and cost. Once charging is complete or interrupted via the app, disconnect the cable.
