Precautions in the Event of an Accident
• Ensure the vehicle is in P, the parking brake is applied and the vehicle power system is OFF.
• If any cables on the vehicle are exposed, in order to prevent electric shock or even death DO NOT
make any contact with any cable.
• If the vehicle catches fire, and the fire is small and slow, a carbon dioxide extinguisher can be used to
extinguish the fire, and contact the fire services as soon as possible; if the fire is large and spreading
quickly, immediately evacuate the vehicle and contact the fire services immediately.
• If the vehicle is involved in a collision and cannot be re-started, the negative cable of 12V battery and
Manual Service Disconnect (MSD) MUST be disconnected prior to rescue.
• When the vehicle is completely or partially immersed in water, switch off the vehicle power system
and evacuate the car immediately. The negative cable of 12V battery and Manual Service Disconnect
(MSD) MUST be disconnected prior to rescue or as soon as the vehicle is refloated/removed from the
water. Observe the water/vehicle for any abnormal signs such as excessive bubbles or noises, this may
indicate battery short circuit issues. If no signs are evident, there should not be a shock risk from the
bodywork and recovery can commence.
• If your car is being recovered by an independent recovery agent, please contact an MG Authorised
Repairer for guidance.
• The vehicle is supplied with an emergency response information card. Please show the card to the
rescue personnel when they arrive.

Electric Power Steering

If the electric power steering fails or cannot

this will affect driving safety.
The electric power steering system only works when the

vehicle is in READY mode. The system operates via a
motor with assistance levels automatically adjusted based
on vehicle speed, steering wheel torque and steering wheel
angle.

The electric power steering system provides 3 different
steering modes. According to “Driving Mode” chapter to
change the steering mode:
1 Normal: provides moderate power assistance.
2 Urban: provides a high level of assistance, with a light
feel.
3 Dynamic: provides low level power assistance, with a
heavier feel.

The brakes and tyres need time to 'bed-in' and adjust to
the demands of everyday motoring. During the first 1500 Drive Smoothly
km, please avoid heavy braking where possible.
Anticipating obstructions and slowing down well in
advance, avoids the need for unnecessary acceleration and
harsh braking. A smooth driving style not only improves
battery/distance performance, but can reduce the amount
of wear on the brakes and tyres.
Avoid Driving at Maximum Speed 4

Power consumption and noise levels rise significantly at
higher speeds.
Driving Foreseeingly
Avoid roads with traffic congestion or traffic jams. Foresee
road congestion as early as possible and keep enough
distance to the front car during driving, and slow down
in time. Avoid stamping on the brake pedal for long time
if there is no braking need, which will cause friction plate

• Grip will be reduced, so please drive carefully.
• Reduce speed when it rains. Avoid aquaplaning (the

Driving through Water
Avoid driving through floods after heavy rain, which may
lead to serious damage to the vehicle.
136
Starting & Driving
Check and Service
Check Tyre Pressures Regularly
Under-inflated tyres increase the rolling resistance of the
car which, in turn, increases power consumption. Over or
under-inflated tyres wear out more rapidly and also have a
detrimental effect on the car’s handling characteristics.
Do not Carry Unnecessary Loads

The additional weight of unnecessary loads wastes power,
especially in stop/start conditions where the car is
frequently required to set off from stationary. 4
Maintain Correct Four-Wheel Alignment
Maintain the correct wheel alignment. Avoid collisions
with the kerb and reduce speed on uneven road surfaces.
Out of specification wheel alignment will not only lead to
excessive tyre wear, but also increases the load and power
consumption.

Vehicle Recovery
Towing for Recovery
Towing Hook
When pushing or towing the vehicle from a dangerous situation or onto the transporter, the speed must
remain below 5km/h and be completed within 3 minutes.
To avoid damaging the vehicle, when temporarily pushing or towing the vehicle, the driver's side seat belt
should be inserted and maintained in the lock and the electric drive transmission placed in Neutral in
order to release the EPB.
DO NOT use a tow rope that is twisted - or the towing hook may be unscrewed.
DO NOT tow the vehicle with any of the driven wheels in contact with the road surface, this will avoid
electric drive transmission damage.
222
Your car is equipped with 2 towing eyes (located at the front and the rear of the vehicle), which are used for fitting the

then screw in the towing hook via the small hole into the threaded hole in the bumper beam (see illustration). Ensure the
towing hook is fully tightened!
Note: The towing eye cover may be secured to the bumper by a plastic cord.

using a tow rope but a towing bar is recommended.
Suspended Towing
Suspended towing is the best method for recovering a
vehicle that needs to be towed. The drive wheels MUST be
suspended above the ground. Ensure the EPB is released
when the rear wheels are in contact with the road surface.
Switch the hazard lamps ON and ensure no passengers are
in the vehicle.
224
Transporter or Trailer
If your car is to be transported on the back of a trailer or
transporter, it must be secured as illustrated:
1 Apply the parking brake and place the electric drive

transmission in park.
2 Fit wheel chocks (1) as shown, then position the anti
