While wireless charging is taking place, no objects may be between the pad  
and the telephone being charged.  
WARNING  
The telephone may become warm during wireless charging, so this should  
be removed carefully from the tray.  
Metal objects between the pad and the telephone to be charged can get  
hot due to the action of the induction field - There is a risk of injury. If there  
is a metal object in the storage compartment that has become hot, then  
take out the telephone and let the object cook in the storage compart-  
ment!  
Fig. 103 USB front inputs  
CAUTION

Metal objects between the pad and the telephone to be charged can get hot  
due to the action of the induction field - There is a risk damage to the tele-  
phone.  
With some telephones, the charging process may be interrupted or the tele-  
phone may switch off due to getting hot.  
No electronic or magnetic storage media (e.g. SD cards, USB sticks, cards  
with magnetic strips or chip) may be placed between the support and tele-  
phone to be charged - there is a risk of data loss and damage to this data carri-  
er.  
If a message appears in Infotainment that the telephone can not be charged,  
Read and observe and on page 92 first.  
then proceed as follows.  
One or two USB inputs are located in the lockable storage compartment or

telephone on the pad centrally on the telephone symbol.  
The USB input is also in the rear centre console depending on the equipment  
fitted » Fig. 104.  
Check if the position of the telephone to be charged has not changed dur-  
ing the journey. If this is the case, then take out the telephone and place it  
back on the pad centrally on the telephone symbol.  
The USB inputs in the front centre console can be used for charging and for  
data transmission. The USB inputs in the rear centre console can only be used  
for charging.
