2. Turn the ignition switch to ACC position.
3. The transmission must be in neutral gear.

VEHICLE SERVICE & MAINTENANCE
When towing the vehicle with a platform
trailer, turn off the ignition switch and check
that the vehicle is firmly attached to the trailer.
Vehicle Traction with Platform Trailer
If the vehicle must be towed from the
re a r, p l ea s e us e t r a ct i on d e v i c e
supporting wheels under the front
wheels. The front wheels should not be
on the ground when the vehicle is towed
from the rear. Otherwise, it may cause
s e r i o u s d a m a g e t o t h e v e h i c l e
transmission.
Note
For MT or DCT model
If the trailer is not available in case of an
emergency, it can secure the rope on the front
towing hook under the vehicle for temporary
vehicle traction. When the vehicle is towed via
the front towing hook, only traction rope can
be used. Do not use a rigid tow bar.
No matter MT or DCT model, engage the
neutral (N) gear and release the hand brake
when the vehicle is towed.
If equipped with CVT, do not use a rope for
traction. Only a platform trailer is allowed for
carrying. When the vehicle is trapped in
quagmire or slips in a pit, a rope can be used
for traction, but long-distance traction is not
allowed.
Notes on AT Model Traction
If the automatic transmission is faulty, the
neutral (N) gear may not be engaged. In this
case, if vehicle traction is required, the drive
shafts of the two front wheels should be
removed first; otherwise, the transmission
may be damaged. It is suggested to contact the
MG Authorised Service Center for solution.
Emergency Trailer
There is a hole cover on the right side of the
front bumper of the vehicle. Open it and the
fixing hole for hook installation can be seen.
The towing hook is on the tool bracket under
the luggage compartment floor. Take out the
towing hook and install it into the fixing hole.
Rotate the towing hook clockwise to tighten it
completely and insert a socket wrench into
the hook hole to assist tightening. Be sure that
the towing hook is installed firmly before
towing the vehicle. When towing the vehicle,
the driver must control steering and braking in
the vehicle. After completion of traction,
remove the towing hook and close the hole
cover, and then put the towing hook back into
the tool kit.
