KNOW YOUR ELECTRIC VEHICLE
Overview
This vehicle runs on a battery and uses electricity instead of gasoline like traditional cars. Please read this manual carefully before using the vehicle because it operates differently.
This vehicle is powered by electricity and has two batteries. One battery, located under the chassis, gives power to drive the vehicle hereafter referred as HV battery. The other battery, a 12V car battery in the front compartment, power instruments, lights, and control modules hereafter referred as LV battery.
a. Charging the HV battery: The HV battery in the car needs to be charged using household electricity or approved DC - DC chargers. Make sure all wires, sockets, and plugs can handle the power. Have a professional electrician set up the charging system. It must be grounded correctly and have a main switch and safety device.
b. High-voltage cable warning: The orange cable in the car carries high voltage. Do not touch it. Pay close attention to warning signs on parts with high voltage.
c. Entering ready mode : When you open the door, the car switches to high-voltage mode. Step on the brake pedal to start driving.
d. Using high-voltage mode : Once the car is in high-voltage mode (doors open and car powered on), it mainly uses the HV battery. It can run lights and air conditioning for a long time. The HV battery also charges the 12V battery
e. Winter driving tips:In winter, the HV battery’s performance decreases when it’s cold but improves as it warms up. To take care of the battery, avoid fast starts and driving fast for a long time in cold weather. Use the heater smartly, plan your trip well, and charge the car on time.
f. Safety during charging: It is forbidden to use false grounding equipment such as the grounding and resistance reduction module, which may cause potential safety hazards of electric shock during charging. Vehicle Identification Information

note

Switch off LV equipment when not in use to avoid 12V battery drain.

b. High voltage component:

HV equipment includes the drive motor, motor controller, HV battery pack, charging system, A/C compressor, and heater.

warning

Each HV component has a warning label. Please pay attention to relevant warnings. To avoid electric shock, do not touch any EV components, HV cables & other connectors. Do not touch any exposed or damaged orange HV cables, otherwise you may be exposed to a risk of electric shock. Please read and follow these warnings carefully to avoid electric shock. Do not touch any HV components or cables.

caution

After you receive the vehicle, make sure to fully charge the HV battery to 100% before it drops below 30% to keep it in good condition.

Safety of HV system

a. HV component safety:Avoid touching exposed or damaged orange HV cables.

b. High-voltage system:Water contact

The high-voltage system remains generally safe in the following scenarios:

  • Vehicle partially submerged in water up to 300 mm.
  • Leakage of liquids in the trunk.

In these situations, there is no risk of electric shock. However, there is a possibility of other damage to the vehicle.

c. Avoid modifications:

Do not take disassemble or modify any electrical parts in the vehicle. Modifying them could lead to serious problems like short circuits, fires, or burns. Improper execution of the work poses a risk of fire and serious injury from electric shock caused


by the high-voltage system. JSW MG MOTOR advises that modifications and maintenance on the vehicle should only be conducted by JSW MG authorised service center. The high-voltage system in your vehicle is selfcontained, ensuring safety as long as no unauthorized work is done on high-voltage electrical parts or the chassis.

Emergency situation

a. Accident response:

If there’s an accident and you have time, turn off the vehicle’s power, set the parking brake, turn on hazard lights, place a warning triangle, and leave the vehicle. Contact the JSW MG authorised service centre right away. If there’s no time, like if there’s a fire or strong burning smell, turn off the vehicle and activate the parking brake to get out. . Accident response:

b. Fire or smoke situation:

Immediately turn off the power supply and get off the vehicle. If the fire is intensive or develops rapidly, stay away from the vehicle immediately and call 101. If the fire is not intensive, use a waterbased fire extinguisher to put out the fire and keep a safe distance from the fire source.

Battery information

a. Battery replacement and recycling:

If you need to replace the HV battery, handle it carefully to avoid injury. According to Indian laws & regulations, recycle the HV battery at an MG-designated recycling station. Disposing of these batteries improperly can harm the environment and people. Check the official website for recycling details

b. Battery maintenance:

When the instrument cluster’s power bar turns red, it means the HV battery is low. Charge it promptly and avoid letting it completely run out before charging again. This helps keep the battery working well. It is recommended to fully charge the battery at least once every two weeks when using the vehicle regularly for maintenance.

danger

Do not alter the charging port or equipment. Doing so could lead to charging problems or even cause a fire or may lead to fatal injuries.

Do not dismantle or open the lithium-ion HV battery pack without authorization. In case of accidents, professionals should not cut or impact the battery pack to avoid leaks, deformation, and potential injury.

warning

Before storing the vehicle for an extended period (over one month), ensure the battery is charged to more than 50%. After prolonged parking, perform charging maintenance at least once a month. This involves fully charging the vehicle using AC slow charging, then discharging it to between 40% and 60% before parking again. Failure to maintain the battery as recommended could lead to vehicle issues caused by over-discharge, which may not be covered under warranty.

note

Be extra cautious of pedestrians. Since the vehicle is quiet and doesn't make noise from the engine, pedestrians might not realize it's approaching, moving, or getting ready to move, and could accidentally step into its path.

SAFETY SYSTEMS
Overview

This section of the manual, along with others, contains crucial safety guidelines. Please pay special attention to the following precautions:

a. Always use your seat belt

It provides the best protection in any type of accident. Airbags are designed to complement seat belts, not to replace them. Therefore, even though your vehicle has airbags, ALWAYS ensure that you and your passengers wear your seat belts and wear them correctly.

b. Secure all children

All children under the age of 13 should ride in the back seat of your vehicle, properly restrained. Infants and small children should be secured in an appropriate Child Restraint System. Older children should use a booster seat with a lap/shoulder belt until they can safely use the seat belt alone, without the booster seat.

caution

Adjusting the seats so that you are sitting in a safe and comfortable position plays an important role for the safety of the driver and passengers, as much as seat belts and air bags when in an accident.

warning

Do not use a cushion that reduces friction between the seat and the passenger. The passenger's hips may slide under the lap portion of the seat belt during an accident or a sudden stop. Serious or fatal internal injuries could result because the seat belt cannot operate properly.

c. Safety precautions

Adjusting the seats so that you are sitting in a safe and comfortable position plays an important role for the safety of the driver and passengers, as much as seat belts and air bags when in an accident.


d. Airbag risks

Though airbags can be life-saving, they can also cause serious or fatal injuries to those who are too close or not properly restrained. Infants, young children, and shorter adults are especially at risk. Adhere to all instructions and warnings provided in this manual regarding airbags.

e. Avoid driver distraction

Driver distraction is a significant and potentially fatal hazard, particularly for inexperienced drivers. Always prioritize safety and be aware of distractions like drowsiness, reaching for objects, eating, grooming, interacting with other passengers, and using mobile phones. To minimize distraction:

Set up mobile devices (e.g., phones, navigation units) only when your vehicle is parked or stopped.

Use mobile devices only when permitted by laws and when it is safe. Never text or email while driving; many places have laws against texting and some also ban handheld phone use.

Do not let mobile device use distract you from driving. It’s you responsibility to ensure that both hands remain on the wheel and your attention stays on the road.

f. Maintain appropriate speed: Driving at excessive speeds is a leading cause of accidents and injuries. Higher speeds increase the risk of severe consequences, although serious injuries can also occur at lower speeds. Always drive at a safe speed for the current conditions, regardless of posted speed limits.

g. Ensure vehicle safety: Tyre blowouts or mechanical failures can be dangerous. To minimize these risks, regularly check your tire pressures and conditions, and follow all scheduled maintenance guidelines.


Front seat

Seat Position and Backrest Normal Condition

mg-comet
  • When you sit on the seat, make your hip as close to the backrest as possible. Adjust the distance between the seat and the pedal so that your leg slightly bends when you depress the pedal. The passenger’s seat shall slide as backward as possible.
  • When you sit on the seat, make your shoulders lean on the backrest as backward as possible. Set the backrest inclination angle to make your arm conveniently to reach the steering wheel while slightly bending the arm. Keep the shoulders leaning against the backrest while turning the steering wheel. The backrest shall not incline excessively backward. We suggest that the inclination angle of all backrests shall not be more than 25°.
  • The seat height shall be so set that the occupant can see all directions and the positions of all display instruments. The head must be at least one hand away from the roof lining. The thighs are right on the seat without constriction.

Front Passenger Seat One-button Access*

mg-comet

Unlock the handle according to the direction shown in the figure, and adjust the backrest to the foremost end.

When it is confirmed that the backrest is in the foremost position, the slide rail is triggered to unlock, and the seat can slide freely forward and backward to facilitate the entry and exit of rear passengers.

Adjust the backrest backward to an appropriate position, and the seat slide rail will return to the locked state.

Seat Belt
mg-comet

The seat belt is designed only for one passenger to use. They are not applicable to a passenger under 12 years old or under 150 cm high. Check all parts of the seat belt system for any damage or abnormal function regularly

Please replace the damaged parts and components. It is strongly recommended to have the seat belt or used seat belt tensioner replaced at the Aftersales Service Center after an accident

Wearing

mg-comet

1. Pull out the seat belt from the retractor, and fasten it across the body without twisting.

mg-comet

2. Put the latch plate in the buckle for fixing.

When driving, pull the shoulder belt forcibly to adjust the tightness of hip belt.

Too loose or heavy clothing will hamper close wearing the seat belt. Do not place any object (such as handbag and mobile phone) between the seat belt and your body.

Unlock

mg-comet

To unbuckle the seat belt, please press the red button on the buckle.

Seat Belt Use During Pregnancy

mg-comet

The seat belt provide protection for everybody, including a pregnant woman. Like all passengers, if pregnant women do not wear the seat belt, severe personal injuries are more likely to be caused to them. Pregnant women shall wear a hip/ shoulder seat belt during the whole pregnancy, and the hip belt shall be fastened as low as possible. The best way to protect a fetus is to provide safety protection to its mother. If the seat belt is fastened correctly, the fetus is not vulnerable to injury in case of a collision. Wearing the seat belt correctly is the key to providing the best protection for pregnant women and anyone else.

Child Seat

The vehicle is not equipped with a child seat.

If you want to add one, a child seat that is applicable to ISOFIX “general” type can be selected. A child seat can only be placed on the second row because the front seat is not equipped with the anchor system bracket.

The statistical data of accidents show that placing the child seat on the second row seat can largely improve the child safety.


Overview
mg-comet

According to European Regulation ECE R44, child restraint systems can be divided into the following 5 groups:

Group 0: For children weighing less than 10 kg.

Group 0+: : For children weighing less than 13 kg.

Group I:: for a child weighed between 9 kg to 18 kg.

Group II: : for a child weighed between 15 kg to 25 kg.

Group III: for a child weighed between 22 kg to 36 kg.

Please select a suitable child seat according to your child’s weight and body size.

For children under 1 year old, a rear-facing child seat must be used as their bones are still fragile.

  1. The child seat fixing device is on the joint between the second row set backrest and the seat cushion. Its position can be identified by a label at the lower end of the seat back. The left and right seats are equipped with a child seat fixing device respectively.
  2. Clear up the objects on the seat. Remove the seat belt and seat belt buckle to avoid affecting the accurate fixing of the child seat.
  3. Put the child seat on the second row seat.

mg-comet
  1. Connect the fixing hook on the child seat to the on vehicle fixing device. Operate according to the child seat instructions.
mg-comet
  1. Connect the upper strap of the child seat to the rear fixing point of the vehicle. These fixing points are present under the carpet behind the second row Refer to the child seat instructions to get to know when and how to strain the upper strap.
  2. Push and pull the child seat in all directions to make sure it is safely secured.

  1. Make sure that the child seat temperature is not very high before putting a child in the seat. In case of a serious collision accident, the child seat fixing device may be damaged. Some parts may require repair and replacement. Please check the child seat fixing device after a collision.
Airbag System

The vehicle may have the following airbags:

  • Driver frontal airbag
  • Co-driver airbag

For all airbags, the letter “AIRBAG” is marked on the trim panel or the label near the opening where they are deployed. The word “AIRBAG” on the driver’s airbag is located in the middle of the steering wheel, the front passenger’s frontal airbag word is located on the instrument panel.

The airbag can supplement protection on the basis of correct wearing of the seat belt

Although nowadays the airbags are designed to reduce the injury risks caused by the impact force when the airbag is inflated, all airbags must be inflated rapidly to exert its effect.

Airbag Indicator
mg-comet

On the instrument panel, there is an airbag indicator which displays the airbag shape symbol. The system will check whether the airbag circuit system has a fault and give .corresponding prompt through the indicator.

Refer to the Chapter “Instruments and Controls” for detailed information.

Airbag Position

Driver Frontal Airbag

mg-comet

As shown in the Figure A above, the driver frontal airbag is located in the middle of the steering wheel.

As shown in Figure B, the front passenger frontal airbag is located on the front passenger side instrument panel.

Other situations where the airbag may inflate except for collisions.

If the vehicle bottom is impacted seriously, the airbag may also be inflated. Refer to the following examples.

mg-comet
  • Hit a road shoulder, sidewalk edge or hard surface.
  • Fall into or drive into a deep pit.
  • Wheel hard landing or vehicle fall.

Frontal airbag may not be inflated in the following collisions.

The frontal airbag will usually not be inflated in case of side collisions, rear-end collision by another vehicle, turnover or low-speed headon collisions. Regardless of the collision type, the driver’s frontal airbag will only inflate if the vehicle generates sufficient forward deceleration.

mg-comet
  • Head-on collision angle over 30° from vehicle longitudinal direction.
mg-comet
  • Side collision
  • Rear-end collision

  • Overturn, falling from high place, rolling.
  • Hit deformable objects, such as sandpile, guard bar, column and tree.
  • Hit into front vehicle bottom, especially truck bottom.

Important Suggestion!

mg-comet

Do not install rear-facing child seats on front seats protected by airbags! Otherwise, children may be injured or even killed.

Important Note

mg-comet

Do not use a backward-facing child restraint system on a seat (front seat) protected by a frontal air bag (in activated state). Otherwise, severe injuries or even death may be caused to the child when the air bag is deployed.

Frequently Asked Questions

When shall the airbag be inflated?

The frontal airbag is designed to be inflated in moderate to severe headon collision or almost head-on collision to reduce severe injury risks of the driver’s and the front passenger’s head and chest.

Frontal airbag inflation is not primarily dependent on the speed of the vehicle, but on the object being collided with, the direction of the collision and the deceleration of the vehicle per unit time during the collision. The frontal airbag may be inflated at different collision speed.

It depends on whether the vehicle hits the object straight or at an angle at the moment of the collision, and on whether the collided object is fixed or moving, non- deformable or deformable, narrow or wide. Due to different designs of each model, the collision inflation conditions of the frontal airbag may vary. Frontal airbags do not inflate in the event of a vehicle rollover, a rear collision and many side collisions.

The frontal airbag may not inflate in slight headon or nearly head-on collisions, lateral or diagonal collisions, collisions to cylindrical objects (such as telegraph pole and tree trunk), rear-end collisions under large vehicle (trucks, etc.) breast board and lateral glancing collisions.

As per the design, the seat lateral impact airbag and the side curtain airbag will inflate according to the impact position in case of the moderate to severe lateral collisions.


The seat lateral-impact airbag and the side curtain airbag may not inflate in slight side collisions and lateral-frontal or diagonal collisions.

As per the design, the seat lateral impact airbag and the side curtain airbag will inflate on the collision side of the vehicle. Airbags are not triggered in every collision. For a particular accident, it shall not simply judge whether the airbag should be inflated according to the causalities, vehicle damage or repair and maintenance expenses. Your vehicle is equipped with a collision sensing and diagnosis module. If a collision accident reaches certain strength, the module may record relevant collision information after the collision. If you have any questions about the airbag working condition of your vehicle in a collision accident, please contact the JSW MG authorised service center in time for professional analysis and diagnosis

How is the airbag inflated?

During inflation, the sensing system sends an electronic signal that triggers the gas generator to release gas to fill the airbag, causing the airbag to inflate and eject from the cover. The gas generator, airbag and relevant members are all components of the airbag module. Please refer to “Airbag Position” for details

How does the airbag provide protection? The airbags supplement the protection provided by the seat belts by distributing the impact forces more evenly over the occupant’s body. However, in collisions where the occupant’s body is not moving in the direction of the airbag, and in collisions where an external object has entered the vehicle, the airbag is unable to provide the appropriate protection. The airbag shall only be seen as a supplementary device to the seatbelt.


warning

When the airbag is inflated, dust may be spread in the air. All persons in the vehicle shall get off the vehicle as soon as possible. If you have a breathing problem and cannot get off the vehicle after airbag inflation, open the windows or doors to get fresh air. If breathing problems occur after the airbag is inflated, you should seek medical attention as soon as possible.

What will you see after the airbag inflates? When the airbag is inflated, it will deflate so quickly that some people may not even notice that the airbag has been inflated because it deflates so fast. Smoke and dust may also be emitted from the deflated airbag vent. If the vehicle power supply system can still work normally after a collision, the vehicle has the functions of automatically unlocking doors, turning on hazard warning lamps and turning off fuel system after airbag inflation. The driver can use corresponding function switch to lock doors, turn off indoors lamps and turn off the hazard warning lamp. The deployment of the front passenger air bag may also cause damage.

  • An airbag is designed to inflate only once. After the airbag is inflated, some parts of the airbag system need to be replaced. Otherwise, the airbag system will be unable to provide protection in the next collision accident. The airbag system parts that shall be replaced include the airbag module, airbag control module, seat belt pretensioner and other parts.
  • Work related to the SRS can only be done by JSW MG authorised Service Center technicians with corresponding qualification. Improper repair and maintenance may cause that the airbag system cannot function normally. Please drive to the JSW MG authorised Service Center for repair and maintenance.

Repair, maintenance and replacement of airbag system:

  • The airbag system must be maintained by JSW MG authorised Service Center technicians. Improper maintenance will cause the airbag system to fail to function normally. Please go to the JSW MG authorised Service Center for repair and maintenance of the airbag system.

warning

If the airbag cover is damaged, opened or broken, the airbag may not function normally. It shall be repaired as soon as possible.

Never stick or cover any object on the airbag cover surface or refit the airbag cover; never try to repair, adjust or remove or install any airbag system component; never try to refit the front bumper of the vehicle body by yourself.

Other situations where the airbag may be inflated (deployed) except for a collision the airbags may also inflate if the underside of the vehicle suffers a severe impact.

Refer to the following examples.

Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)

As one advanced electric braking system, the anti-lock brake system (ABS) is helpful in avoiding the vehicle from slipping and losing control, and this system can also provide the maximum braking capability on the slipped pavement.

When the ignition switch is turned on, the ABS warning lamp illuminates momentarily

The ABS warning lamp does not go out or illuminates when the vehicle is running, it indicates that the ABS is faulty. Please immediately contact the JSW MG Authorized Service center. Refer to “ABS Fault Warning Lamp” under Chapter “Instruments and Controls”.

The ABS will monitor the speed of each wheel during braking. If one wheel tends to be locked, the system will control brakes of two front wheels and two rear wheels respectively. When the ABS works, the brake pedal often vibrates slightly with noise.


Electric Brake Force Distribution (EBD) System

The EBD system uses the high-speed computer to respectively induce and calculate different ground to which four Tyres are attached, and thus calculate different friction values at the moment the vehicle brakes. Therefore, the four Tyres can brake in different ways using different forces based on the conditions, and the ways and forces can be adjusted quickly during movement, so as to ensure that the vehicle is stable and safe.

Electronic Stability Control (ESC) System*

The ESC system is a new type of active safety system, which represents the further development of anti-lock brake system (ABS) and traction control system (TCS) functions.

In addition, the system also adds a yaw rate sensor, a lateral acceleration sensor, and a steering wheel angle sensor. The front and rear driving force, braking force, and left and right wheels are controlled by ECU to ensure the lateral stability of the vehicle. The ESC system will automatically intervene when the driver drives at excessive speed or turns at high speed to ensure that the vehicle is under control again and safe. Indicators related to the ESC system include the ABS fault warning lamp, the EBD fault warning lamp, the ESC fault warning lamp, and the ESC off indicator.

  1. After the ignition switch is turned on, the indicator lights up for self-inspection. If the four indicators are on for 3s, it indicates that the ESC system is conducting self inspection and the indicators work normally. Under normal circumstances, all four indicators go out after 3 seconds
  2. When the ESC system fails (such as improper installation, loose connector, and abnormal CAN communication), only the ESC off indicator will go out and the other 3 indicators will be on after 3s.

  1. If the ESC function is activated during driving, the ESC indicator will flash to remind the owner that the ESC system is running. If the ESC system cannot work normally when the ABS and EBD systems work normally, the ESC MIL will be on, indicating that the ESC system fails. If the ESC system and ABS system fail while the EBD system works normally, the ESC MIL and ABS MIL will be on. If the ESC system, the ABS system, and the EBD system fail, the ESC, ABS, and EBD fault warning lamps will light up.
  2. The ESC off indicator is to indicate that the ESC function is turned off (the indicator is on when the ESC function is off, and off when the ESC function is on). If the owner presses the ESC off button, some ESC functions will be off and the ESC off indicator will light up.
  3. When the ESC switch is pressed, the ESC system starts to work, and the ESC function will not be disabled immediately but after the process is completed. If the owner presses the ESC switch again, the ESC function will be enabled again. If the ESC switch is pressed for more than 10 seconds, the ESC system will consider it as a misoperation (For example, the ESC switch is accidentally pressed by other objects) and will not turn off the ESC function.

  4. The ESC system will be activated automatically after every re-ignition

Turn off the ESC System*

The ESC function can be turned off by accessing the vehicle settings menu on the host. When the ESC function is turned off, the ESC off indicator lights up. It is generally not recommended to shut down the ESC system. The ESC system can be turned off temporarily only when the vehicle just leaves muddy ground or climbs a slope in a slippery area.

HHC*

When the vehicle is in D gear or R gear at the half-slope start, after releasing the handbrake and brake pedal, the hill hold control function will be activated when the vehicle slides slightly, which can keep the vehicle parked on the slope for about 3-5 seconds. During this period of time, the vehicle will not slide, and the driver will be given a starting time to assist in climbing.

caution

During the 3-5 seconds when HHC is activated, in case of any one of the following conditions, HHC will automatically exit:

  1. No operation is carried out by the driver. In this case, the hill hold control function will automatically exit after 3-5 seconds.
  2. The driver shifts gears (to N or P, or D/R). In this case, the hill hold control function will automatically exit.
  3. The accelerator pedal is depressed to start the vehicle and automatically exit the HHC.

When HHC is disabled, it will be activated again by one of the following operations:

  1. When the driver depresses the brake pedal or pulls the handbrake to stop the vehicle, the hill hold control function will be activated again
  2. Releasing the handbrake and brake pedal will cause the vehicle to slide slightly.

  3. After the accelerator pedal is depressed to start, if the vehicle stops and slides slightly, HHC will be activated again.

caution
  1. In case of low battery (<)25% or low ambient temperature ( 10°C), hill hold control power decreases or there is no power output. In such a case, please drive cautiously
  2. If the motor temperature is too high (the instrument will prompt) after continuous or frequent use of the hill hold control function, please pay attention to cooling the vehicle
  3. The greater the slope, the longer the sliding distance. Overloading may lengthen this distance. Therefore, please do not overload your car.
  4. Do not rely too much on HHC as it cannot replace the functions of brake and handbrake. Please drive carefully.
  5. The Company is not responsible for any consequences arising from reliance on this system.

To apply the parking brake, depress the brake pedal to stop the vehicle, and pull up the EPB switch. Release the EPB switch after the EPB working indicator lights up and P the instrument panel displays “Parking Brake Working”.

At this time, the EPB system clamps the vehicle to park.

Manually Release the Parking Brake

If the parking brake must be released, first make sure that the ignition switch is at the ON position, depress the brake pedal, and then press the EPB switch. The EPB working indicator goes out, and the instrument panel displays “Parking Brake Released” to remind you that the parking brake has been released.

If the brake pedal is not depressed, the instrument will command “please depress the brake pedal and then release the EPB switch”.

When the EPB switch is operated, the switch will respond only when it is released or pressed for more than 0.1s.

Deactivation of Automatic Clamping Function

When pushing, towing, and cleaning the vehicle, you may need to turn off the EPB automatic clamping function to drive the vehicle after startup.

Turn-off method: Depress the brake pedal and hold the EPB switch pressed while stopping the vehicle. Try to push the vehicle to confirm that EPB is not in the clamped state.


Automatic Vehicle Hold (AVH)*

The vehicle with EPB has the auto vehicle hold function.

After the function is activated, the driver can depress the brake pedal to stop the vehicle, or depress the brake pedal to make the vehicle stand still and idle. After the brake pedal is released, the hydraulic pressure in the brake system will keep parking (whether on uphill or flat roads). At this time, the vehicle can be stationary without pulling up the EPB switch.

If the driver depresses the accelerator to start the vehicle within 5 minutes, the hydraulic pressure in the brake system will be automatically released, and the parking brake will be released at the same time to start the vehicle. After 5 minutes, automatically switch to the electronic parking brake caliper, clamp the parking, and release the hydraulic pressure in the brake system at the same time.

The start/stop state of the auto vehicle hold

function can be saved. If the auto vehicle hold switch is ON or OFF when the power supply is turned off last time, it will remain the same when the power supply is turned on again.

warning

Avoid sudden braking, starting and accelerating of the vehicle when the cup holder is in use to prevent liquid spillage. If hot liquid spills, it can result into burns. Such burn to the driver or co passenger could lead to loss of vehicle control & may result in accident.

  • Do not place uncovered or unsecured cups, bottles, cans etc. in the cup holder containing hot liquid while the vehicle is in motion. Injuries may result in the event of sudden stop or collision.
  • Keep cans or bottles out of direct sun light & do not put them in a hot vehicle. It may explode.
note

Keep your drinks sealed while driving to prevent liquid spillage. Liquid spills may get into vehicles electrical/electronic system & damage electrical/electronic parts.

When cleaning spilled liquids, do not dry the cup holder at high temperature. This may damage the cup holder.


Electric Power Steering (EPS) System

The EPS system provides the steering assist for the vehicle.

The power steering fluid is not required for the system, which brings great convenience for the daily vehicle maintenance.

When the ignition switch is connected, the EPS fault warning lamp illuminates momentarily. The EPS fault warning lamp stays on or illuminates when the vehicle is running, it indicates the EPS system is faulty.

In this case, you need immediately go to Aftersales Service Center for maintenance.

When the EPS system is under extreme conditions of high load work for a long time (For example, the steering wheel is “turned to the end” for a long time, or the vehicle is moved into the garage at low speed repeatedly to a wide angle), the thermal protection function may be activated due to excessively high temperature of electrical elements.

The system will reduce the power assist after it enters the thermal protection state, and at the time you have to steer the wheel with great force. If the normal power assist need be recovered, you can steer the wheel at a smaller angle or promote the vehicle speed.

You can restart the vehicle when necessary.

STARTING YOUR EV
Overview

After unlocking the vehicle, open the driver’s side door. The instrument cluster will activate, and the vehicle will enter the HV state. In HV state, all hybrid circuits are active, allowing you to engage the gear for driving and the A/C system can provide cooling while in HV state.

Trial run of new vehicle During the first 500 kilometers of driving a new vehicle, follow these steps to enhance performance, improve drive range efficiency, and prolong the vehicle’s lifespan:

  1. Avoid making sudden stops unless it’s an emergency. This helps the brakes settle in better.
  2. Try not to accelerate rapidly or drive at high speeds to prevent motor damage and conserve power.
  3. Do not tow another vehicle with your vehicle during this period.
Basic operations

a. Before you start your EV:

  • Make sure that the area around the vehicle is clear.
  • Do a check of the fluid levels - coolant, brake fluid, and windshield washer fluid as frequently as possible.
  • Make sure that all windows and lights are clean.
  • Examine the tires for their appearance, inflation pressure and condition.
  • Make sure that all doors are closed.
  • Position the seat and adjust the headrests.
  • Adjust the inside and outside mirrors.
  • Fasten seat belts and ask all passengers to do likewise.
  • Do a check of the operation of the warning lights when the power switch is pushed to the ON position.

b. Procedure to start EV:

  1. With the smart key sit in the driver’s seat (if equipped), vehicle will automatically switch to HV mode.
  2. Fasten the seat belt before you start the vehicle.
  3. Turn off all electrical devices.
  4. Make sure to engage the parking brake for your safety.
  5. Make sure the accelerator and brake pedal have clearance with your right foot.
  6. Press the brake pedal to enter the READY mode, enabling the vehicle to operate in gear. The "READY" state is similar to the starting state of an internal combustion engine vehicle.
  7. The vehicle will get ON in ‘P’ mode only and it will be automatically selected.
  8. When ‘Ready’ message appears, you can drive the vehicle. Else, you cannot drive the vehicle. Start the vehicle again.
  9. Shift to the desired position (D/R).
  10. Release the parking brake and slowly release the brake pedal. See if the vehicle slowly moves forward, then press the accelerator pedal
note

If the EPB is disengaged manually after selecting required mode (D/R), release the brake pedal slowly to move the vehicle forward with creep activated condition. Further Accelerator pedal input to be given for achieving required speed.

c. Procedure to stop EV

  1. Hold down the brake pedal while the vehicle is parked.
  2. While pressing the brake pedal, shift to P mode using the gear knob to engage the parking brake.
note

The vehicle must always be put in ‘N’ when you stop the vehicle before engaging the park brake.


When the 'Ready' indicator is illuminated and the gear shifter is not in the Neutral (N) position, the driver may inadvertently press the accelerator pedal, resulting in unexpected vehicle movement.

d. Range of your EV: Your EV can provide specified range, when the high voltage battery is 100 percent charged. However, the range may vary in different driving modes and in certain situations like driving at high speed or when the air conditioner/heater/infotainment system is ON as the HV battery consumes more energy.

note

The vehicle battery usage is displayed in the instrument cluster in the form of estimated range.

Displayed range in the instrument cluster is a tentative number. It is recommended to keep 20 Km buffer in estimated range before planning the trip.


Tips to get maximum range while driving EV

1. If safe to do so, modulate the accelerator pedal instead of using the brake pedal when gradually slowing down. Whenever the vehicle is moving and you are not pressing the accelerator pedal, regenerative braking slows down the vehicle and feeds surplus energy back to the HV battery.

2. Limit the use of resources such as heating, and air conditioning. If you operate the air conditioner/heater for long duration, it will use too much electricity from HV battery.Turn OFF the heater and air conditioner if you do not need them.

3. Using the climate control system to heat the cabin when the outside temperature is below 0°C uses more electricity and affects vehicle range more than when using the heater when the temperature is above 0°C.

4. Press and hold the accelerator pedal to maintain speed and drive economically.

5. Gradually press and release the accelerator pedal when accelerating or decelerating.

6. Do not use unnecessary electrical components while driving.

7. Do not load unnecessary items in the vehicle trunk. Any additional load in the car drains the battery. Do not add more accessories, do not keep dead weight in the car, and in general travel as light as possible.

8. Do not mount parts on the exterior of the car as it might increase drag.

9. Service schedule should be adhered to. Fluid levels should be maintained within tolerance limits. Both of these also helps in realizing the maximum range potential of an electric vehicle

10. To optimize driving range use drive/eco mode and maintain the recommended tyre pressure.

11. Drive in ECO mode

12. ECO mode helps reduce power consumption by reducing acceleration when compared to the same accelerator pedal position in the D (Drive) position.

13. Drive at a constant speed. Maintain cruising speeds with constant accelerator positions as much as possible.

14. Accelerate slowly and smoothly. Gently press and release the accelerator pedal for acceleration and deceleration.

15. Vehicle range may be substantially reduced in extremely cold conditions (for example, 0°C).

16. Release the accelerator pedal to slow down and do not apply the brakes when traffic and road conditions allow.


Methods of determining whether a vehicle needs charging
  1. If conditions permit, it is recommended that you charge the vehicle when parking it. Shallow charge and discharge are conducive to prolonging the battery life. Do not wait until the battery runs out before recharging, which may not be conducive to your next trip and the battery life.
  2. If the SOC low warning light goes on during driving, it indicates that the traction battery pack is low in power and needs to be charged as soon as possible.
  3. When the electricity meter indicates low remaining power, or the endurance mileage cannot meet the travel demand, charging is required.
Requirement for charging power supply
  1. The general household AC power supply is used for the charging system of this vehicle: Voltage: 230V; current ≥16A; power> 3.6KW. Please ensure that the load of the power supply line meets the above requirements. If the supply line is formed by connecting multiple lines, the wires, plugs and sockets on each line must meet the load requirements. Otherwise, the part that cannot meet the load requirements may melt or catch fire due to overheating.
  1. When the household power supply is used for charging, the main switch and leakage protection switch should be installed at the front end of the charging line, so that the main switch can be disconnected and leakage protection can be carried out in an emergency. Ground wire must be grounded properly.
  2. Be sure to select high-quality cables and sockets, and ask a professional electrician to install supply lines and equipment for you.
note
When the AC charger plug provided by the vehicle is used for charging, the charging power is less than 6.6KW. If the vehicle is equipped with a 6.6KW or 3.3KW on - board charger the charging power can reach 6.6KW or 3.3KW only when the high-power AC charging pile is used for charging.

caution
Be sure to ask a professional electrician to install the charging line for you; otherwise, it may cause fire or electric shock
Check Before Charging:
  1. Check that the handbrake is pulled on completely and the key is placed in LOCK position or removed.
  2. Do not ride in the vehicle when charging. Ensure the ventilation of charging places, and do not charge in confined and narrow spaces.
  3. Before charging, please check whether the skin and casing of the charging cable are broken. If so, please contact the service center for repair or replacement. Make sure that the charging cable is in a state of natural extension, and do not hang in the air.
  1. During charging, appropriate protective measures should be taken to avoid children and other irrelevant personnel approaching the charging vehicle and charging cable.
  2. During charging, it should be noted that there should be no residual rainwater in the charging socket and its vicinity.
  3. Do not charge the vehicle in an environment where there is rain, snow or accumulated water, or fire source nearby. Also, do not charge it in thunder weather. In case of rain, snow, water rising, or strong wind during charging, stop charging and put away the charging cable. Otherwise, there is risk of electric leakage.
  4. If the vicinity of the charging port gets wet during charging, please pull out the charging plug from the power supply socket and then unplug the charging gun from the charging port while ensuring safety. If necessary, please use insulating gloves and contact the service center for testing and confirmation as soon as possible.

  1. When touching the charging plug, please keep your hands dry, and use insulating gloves if necessary.
  2. The ambient temperature of charging is recommended to be between 0°C and 35°C, and avoid charging at low or high temperature (it is recommended to charge the vehicle at noon in winter, and in the morning or evening in summer). Avoid charging in an environment of high temperature such as direct sunlight.
  3. The charging plug is a highvoltage electrical device, which is strictly prohibited for children. Children are strictly forbidden to operate during charging. If there are many children or people walking frequently in the charging area, safety signs should be set up.
  4. Lock the doors before leaving the vehicle to prevent theft.
caution

Before charging, check the charging cable and charging port to make sure that the cable is not damaged and that no water or foreign matter enters the charging gun and port.

Precautions

  1. In order to extend the service life of the traction battery pack and ensure the driving safety, avoid parking & driving when the battery power is too low (< 10%).
  2. Do not use the traction battery pack onboard for other purposes.
  3. Improper handling of the traction battery may cause serious accidents, such as battery damage or personal injury. Note the following to avoid accidents:
    • Do not expose the vehicle to the environment above 45°C for more than 24 hours, and place the vehicle in a cool environment in time. Avoid parking & charging vehicle under direct Sun light & Direct Rain.
    • Do not place the vehicle in an environment of -25°C for more than 7 days, and place the vehicle in a warm environment in time. If the vehicle is in a low-temperature environment (below -25°C) for a long time, the traction battery pack may freeze inside, resulting in failure to charge and provide driving power to the vehicle, which is very dangerous.


  1. To increase the service life and safety of battery packs, we provide these suggestions:
    • The vehicle without a traction battery heating system cannot be charged when the internal temperature of the traction battery is below 0°C. Therefore, at a low ambient temperature, please charge the vehicle as soon as possible within one hour after parking. If the vehicle cannot be charged due to the low temperature of the traction battery, move the vehicle to a warm place or drive for a period of time before charging
    • Vehicle is not to be used for long duration (more than 3 months) and is in parked condition, ensure the SOC is above 40%. Charge vehicle till 100% SOC before driving.
    • Please try to avoid sharp acceleration or deceleration during driving.
note

If vehicle is not to be used for long duration (more than 3 months) and is in parked condition, ensure the SOC is above 40%. Charge vehicle till 100% SOC before driving. Ideal condition to park vehicle for longer duration is with SOC between 50% to 60%. The traction batteries are special chemical products that need proper use and maintenance. Routine full charge and slow discharge are critical to the maintenance of their performance. In addition, the traction battery capacity is subject to natural attenuation due to the chemical properties. When you find a decrease in SOC range, it is recommended to check it at the service center. If the battery consistency is turned out to be within the normal range, this decrease is due to the normal attenuation of the battery capacity.


Charge Operation and Precautions

Preparations:

  1. Turn off the power, pull out the key and pull up the handbrake.

Insert the charger plug into the charging port. Switch off the supply, pull out the charging gun and fit the charging gun cover, charging cap and charging port door in place.


caution
Do not try to remove the charging gun when charging is ON. If it is necessary to interrupt the charging of the vehicle, isolate the power supply first, then disconnect the vehicle plug.

Smart Charging

The 12V battery SOC is constantly monitored, when the Start/Stop switch is in the OFF position it is possible, under certain conditions, that the HV battery will automatically charge the 12V battery to ensure the vehicle starts. This function will activate and switch off automatically.

note

The system will suspend intelligent charging if a fault is present, when starting or the vehicle is being charged by an external device. The driving range will be reduced after intelligent charging. The intelligent charging function is suspended when the high voltage battery is in a low SOC.


Charging Precautions

  1. Park the vehicle in a ventilated place. Do not stay in the vehicle.
  2. In case of a power outage during charging at home, the charging system will continue to charge the vehicle after power restoration.
  3. When charging at the charging station, follow its operation requirements and wait in a safe area.
  4. Before driving, make sure that the charging gun is pulled out, the charging cable is put away, and the charging port is closed.
  5. It is normal that the predicted time to full charge may vary to some extent with different ambient temperatures and power capacities. At a low ambient temperature, the charging efficiency decreases and the charging time is extended.

Cell Balancing & equalization

Cell balancing and equalization, as well as state of charge (SoC) calibration, occur during charging, particularly when the SoC is above 90%. This results in longer charging times when exceeding 90%. It is recommended to allow the vehicle to charge to 100% SoC before ending the charging session.

caution

Before charging, check the charging port and the connector port of the charging plug for any water or foreign matter. If any, charging is not allowed. Otherwise, it may lead to short circuit or electric shock, resulting in personal injury and property loss. Do not touch the metal parts of plugs and other connectors when charging.

Low Speed Pedestrian Warning System*

BEV has less noise during driving, and thus the low speed pedestrian warning system onboard can play a good role in pedestrian alerting. When the vehicle runs at a speed of 0 ~ 30 km/h or backs up, the warning system is working. The vehicle’s pedestrian warning device will make a buzzing sound similar to that of the engine or a beeping sound similar to that of the reversing sensor.

note

The warning sound volume of the low- speed pedestrian warning device is gradual. When the vehicle speed is close to 0 or 30 km/h, the sound will be the minimum, and when the vehicle speed is 15~20 km/h, the warning sound will reach the maximum. Battery electric vehicle has less noise during driving, and thus the low-speed pedestrian warning system on-board can play a good role in pedestrian alerting. Only when there are no pedestrians in a short distance and the surrounding environment obviously does not require a warning tone can the

Energy Recovery System

When the vehicle power is below 96% and the vehicle speed is high, release the accelerator pedal or step on the brake pedal, and when the system judges that the conditions for energy recovery are met, the vehicle will recover energy. The mechanical energy during driving will be converted into electric energy and then stored in the traction battery to increase the endurance mileage.

When the energy recovery system is working, the traction battery and wheel symbols in the car image on the left side of the instrument panel display green, the power is displayed as negative, and the energy recovery indicator goes on.

Limitations of energy recovery:

  1. No energy recovery is required when the vehicle power is more than 95%.
  2. No energy recovery is required below 0°C.
  3. When ABS or ESC* fails, energy recovery will not be carried out.

  1. In “S” (Sports) mode, no energy recovery is available at a vehicle speed less than 5 km/h. In “E” (“Economy”) mode and standard mode, no energy recovery is available at a speed less than 8 km/h.

Tow your vehicle with a flatbed trailer

mg-windsor

When towing the vehicle with a platform trailer, turn off the ignition switch and check that the vehicle is firmly attached to the trailer.

Emergency Towing

If the tractor is not available in case of an emergency, it can secure the rope on the front towing hook under the vehicle for temporary vehicle towing

When the vehicle is towed via the front towing hook, only tow rope can be used. Do not use a rigid tow bar.

Your vehicle can only be towed by other vehicles but not used to tow other vehicles.

Front Towing Hook

mg-windsor

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. Take out the towing hook from the tool bag and install it into the fixing hole. Rotate the towing hook clockwise to tighten it completely and insert a sleeve 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.

caution

The towing speed shall not exceed 30 km/h, and the towing distance shall not exceed 40 km. When longdistance towing is required, it is suggested to contact the After-sales Service Center or a professional towing service company for help.


Tyre Pressure
mg-windsor

The tyre pressure shall meet provisions of this Manual to ensure optimum matching of driving comfort, safety and driveability

Please refer to “Technical Data” for the correct tyre pressure

When the vehicle is in cool state, check the tyre pressure with an accurate tyre pressure gauge. After check of tyre pressure, tighten the valve core cap.

Check the tyre pressure each time when refuelling or at least every month. Incorrect tyre pressure may:

  • Increase tyre wear and vehicle deviation.
  • Affect the vehicle manoeuvrability and safety.
  • Affect the riding comfort.
  • Oil leakage

Excessively low tyre pressure will cause overheat of the tyre, leading to internal damage and layered tread and even tyre burst when driving at a high speed. Even if the tyre pressure was restored later, driving under too low pressure may have damaged the tyre.

Tyre and Wheel Maintenance

Running over sharp objects may damage tyres and wheels.

If you have to run over these objects, please slow down.

Do not touch the curb when parking

Wheel Alignment and tyre Balance

The wheels on your vehicle were aligned and balanced carefully at the factory to give you the longest tyre life and best overall performance. In most cases, you will not need to have your wheels aligned again.

However, if you notice unusual tyre wear or your vehicle pulling one way or the other, the alignment may need to be reset. If you notice your vehicle vibrating when driving on a smooth road, your wheels may need to be rebalanced.

note

Improper wheel weights can damage your vehicle’s aluminium wheels. Use only approved wheel weights.


Regular Tyre Check

Regular Inspection:

  • Appearance damage. These include foreign material, punctures, cuts, cracks, and sidewall projections
  • It is also required to inspect the wheel for damage.

Tyre defects including the above defects may lead to vehicle out of control, causing personal injury. In case of damage or abnormal wear of tyre or wheel, please consult the After-Sales Service Center for help.

The vehicle is equipped with radial tyres. MG suggests replacing with radial tyres of the same size, pattern, tread wear, temperature and rated speed.

How to check

Use a good quality tyre pressure gauge to check tyre pressure. You can not tell if your tyres are properly inflated simply by looking at them. Radial tyres may look properly inflated when they are underinflated. Remove the valve cap from the tyre valve stem. Press the tyre gauge firmly onto the valve to get a pressure measurement. If the cold tyre inflation pressure matches the recommended pressure on the tyre

and loading information label, no further adjustment is necessary. If the pressure is low, add air until you reach the recommended pressure. Make sure to put the valve caps back on the valve stems. Without the valve cap, dirt or moisture could get into the valve core and cause air leakage. If a valve cap is missing, install a new one as soon as possible.

If you overfill the tyre, release air by pushing on the metal stem in the centre of the tyre valve. Recheck the tyre pressure with the tyre gauge. Be sure to put the valve caps back on the valve stems. Without the valve cap, dirt or moisture could get into the valve core and cause air leakage. If a valve cap is missing, install a new one as soon as possible

Tyre Rotation
mg-windsor

The front tyres and the rear tyres have different functions and therefore have different levels of wear. The front tyres wear faster than the rear tyres. In order to prolong the tyre life and avoid uneven treadwear:

  1. Conduct tyre rotation as per maintenance regulations in the Manual.
  2. Keep a proper tyre pressure.
  3. Check nuts/bolts for tightening.

When rotating tyres, check for uneven wear and damage. Abnormal wear is usually caused by incorrect tyre pressure, improper wheel alignment, out of-balance wheels, severe braking or severe cornering. Look for bumps or bulges in the tread or side of the tyre. Replace the tyre if you find any of these conditions. Replace the tyre if fabric or cord is visible. After rotation, be sure to bring the front and rear tyre pressures to specification and check lug nut tightness.

Information

Tyres that are asymmetrical or directional can only be installed on the wheel in one direction. The outside and inside of an asymmetrical tyre is not easily distinguishable. Pay careful attention to the markings on the sidewalls of the tyres, noting the “outside” marking and the rotating direction before installing them on the vehicle;

caution

Please use the recommended wheels and wheel nuts/bolts. Otherwise, it may lead to the vehicle out of control and cause collision accidents, resulting in personal injury and damage of vehicle or other properties

Tread Wear Indicator

mg-windsor

Check the tyre tread depth as per the tread wear indicator regularly. The mark on the tyre wall indicates the position of the tread wear indicator.

The tyre must be replaced when the tread wear indicator appears. When the tread depth is equal to or less than 1.6 mm due to wear, the tread wear indicator will appear between the tread grooves.


Tyre Sidewall Labelling

This information identifies and describes the fundamental characteristics of the tyre and also provides the tyre identification number (TIN) for safety standard certification. The TIN can be used to identify the tyre in case of a recall.

  1. Manufacturer or brand name Manufacturer or brand name is shown.
  2. Tyre size designation

A tyre’s sidewall is marked with a tyre size designation. You will need this information when selecting replacement tyres for your car. The following explains what the letters and numbers in the tyre size designation mean.
