or transmission overload may cause high transmission
temperatures. To avoid transmission damage, the system
will perform overheating protection function, at the
same time, the transmission overheating warning lamp
on the instrument pack illuminates or the instrument
pack interface displays relevant warning icon and message,
accompanied with an audible alarm.
With the transmission overheating, the transmission
overheating warning lamp will illuminate yellow or the
instrument pack interface will indicate "Increase Speed or
Stop Safely", at the moment, please speed up to above 20
km/h or park safely and shift the lever to P position to
cool down the transmission as the conditions permit.
With the transmission overheating seriously, the
transmission overheating warning lamp will illuminate red
or the instrument pack interface will indicate "Stop Safely",
and the engine emission malfunction indicator lamp on,
please park safely and shift the lever to P position to allow
the transmission to cool.
After parking safely, the transmission overheating warning
lamp will illuminate red or the instrument pack interface
will indicate "Please Wait". Only when the transmission
temperature is lowered down and the transmission
overheating warning lamp goes off or the instrument pack
interface displays "Ready to Drive Away" can the vehicle
start off.
If the driver adheres to the instructions displayed in the
instrument pack interface for 20 minutes, the transmission
overheating warning lamp or the warning message is still
not altered or disappeared, please seek an MG Authorised
Repairer urgently, or the transmission may be severely
damaged.
