STARTING & DRIVING
gears, the transmission will automatically shift down to
the next gear to avoid engine stalling; when the vehicle
accelerates, if the engine speed exceeds a preset limit, the
transmission will automatically shift up to the next gear to
protect the engine.
With Manual mode selected, the information centre will
provide gear shift indications, the UP or DOWN arrow
is displayed at the right side of the gear position number,
indicating to the driver to upshift or downshift when the
conditions permit.
Note: The gear shift operation should be carried
out on the premise of ensuring your own safety and
observing the traffic regulations.
To return to Sport Mode or any other modes, shift the
lever across to the left and select D.
Automatic Transmission Failure
If the automatic transmission develops a problem,
the engine emission malfunction indicator lamp in the
instrument pack will illuminate or the message centre will
display “EP”.
Some “failure modes” will cause the transmission to enter
“Limp Mode”, during this time only certain gear positions
can be selected and/or work, for example, R gear may
not be selectable. If a serious functional failure occurs the
vehicle cannot be driven, please consult an MG Authorised
Repairer immediately.
Note: When the vehicle is in ‘Limp Mode’, manual
gear selection functions are disabled and therefore not
available.
