Do not slide in case that the engine is out of
operation.
In such case, many systems (such as brake
booster) cannot function. Driving in this way
will form a danger to yourself and others.
Pedal
To ensure that the pedal travel is unhampered,
the floor mat in the pedal area shall not be
excessively thick, and no article shall be placed
in the pedal area.
Emergency Measures
One Tyre is Punctured when the Vehicle
is Running
If one tyre is punctured when the vehicle is
running, the driver shall hold the steering
wheel tightly to control the driving direction,
slowly decelerate, turn on the hazard flasher,
and gently depress the brake pedal to park
your vehicle in a safe area.
Driving Instructions
The operation time of the starter motor
shall not exceed 10s once. Otherwise, the
starter motor will get damaged or
discharge of battery will occur.
Caution
Do not brake suddenly when one tyre is
punctured. Braking suddenly will cause
the vehicle to tilt towards one side, and
thus an accident may be caused.
Warnings
One Fault exists when the Vehicle is
Running
If one fault exists when the vehicle is running,
the driver shall turn on the hazard flasher,
slowly decelerate, and park the vehicle in a safe
area at the curb.
Place a warning triangle at a position 50 m
behind the vehicle in the daytime while placing
it at a position 100 m behind the vehicle at
night. Please follow requirements of traffic
laws and regulations.
After inspection, send the vehicle to the MG
Authorised Service Center for inspection and
maintenance.
Place the warning triangle in the trunk, or have
the customer give it to you when the vehicle is
being delivered.
If the Engine Does Not Work
In case that the ignition switch is at the START
position, if the starter motor does not work,
please check whether the battery is dead,
whether the battery port is connected
correctly and whether relevant fuses get
damaged.
If the starter motor works but the engine fails
to be started, please check fuel level, fuel filter,
fuel pump, relevant wiring, etc. The operation
condition of the fuel pump can be preliminarily
judged by hearing sounds made by the ignition
switch when it is being turned on.
Measures Taken in Case of Engine
Overheat
When the vehicle is running, if the output
power of the engine reduces suddenly or the
warning lamp on the instrument indicating
excessively high temperature illuminates, park
your vehicle in a safe area and take following
measures:
Ÿ Have the engine run at idle, and turn the
transmission at the neutral position.
Ÿ Pull the parking brake lever.
Ÿ Turn off the A/C.
Ÿ Open the bonnet to ventilate the engine
bay.
Ÿ If the level of the coolant reservoir does
not drop, stop the engine to cool it.
Ÿ If the coolant level is very low, uncover the
reservoir, slowly fill water in the reservoir

drop by drop till the level reaches the
MAX (maximum) level mark of the
coolant reservoir.
Ÿ After taking provisional measures,
immediately send the vehicle to the MG
Authorised Service Center for inspection.
Do not open the bonnet if steam or
coolant overflows from engine parts.
Otherwise, you may be scalded by steam
or coolant.
Warnings
Suddenly filling cold water in the
overheated engine will damage the engine.
The handling method above is taken in
case of an emergency. When the engine
gets overheated, you are suggested to
contact the MG Authorised Service
Center for solution.
Caution
W h e n t h e e n g i n e g e t s h e a t e d ,
uncovering the coolant reservoir will get
steam or coolant overflowed, and thus
your face or other body parts may be
scalded.
If you are to uncover the coolant
reservoir, you can do it after the engine
cools down completely. Apply one cloth
to the cover, open it slightly at first (by
1/3-1/2), and then open it fully after
pressure in the reservoir is released
completely.
Caution
Operation in Heavy Snow
Ÿ Decelerate when the vehicle turns a
corner, upgrades or crosses a bridge.
Ÿ Please avoid parking on a hard road
shoulder; otherwise the snow shoveling
work will be obstructed.
Ÿ Please keep safe distance from other
vehicles; braking unnecessarily will be
limited.
Ÿ Clear the accumulated snow around the
vehicle frequently, for such measure can
prevent the exhaust pipe from being
blocked.
Start and Operation
Trial Run of New Vehicle
Following measures can be taken within the
initial mileage of 500 km, which can improve
the performance, promote the vehicle
economy and extend the service life:
Ÿ Avoid starting the engine by depressing
the accelerator fully.
Ÿ Do not keep the engine idling for a long
time.
Ÿ Avoid any emergency shutdown except in
an emergency. With this, the brake can
run in well.
Ÿ Do not quickly start, accelerate suddenly
and continuously keep the vehicle running
at high speed if possible, to avoid any
damage to the engine and save the fuel.
Ÿ Avoid accelerating by depressing the
accelerator fully at a low gear and driving
by depressing the accelerator greatly.
Ÿ Do not drag any other vehicle.
