Starting & Driving -> MG Pilot System for Your Mg HS SUV First Generation (2018-2023

STARTING & DRIVING  
*
MG Pilot System  
works on the basis of the adaptive cruise control system.  
If the lane lines ahead on both sides are clear, the system  
can assist the vehicle in driving within the lane lines. When  
driving at a speed lower than 37mph (60km/h), if there is a  
vehicle ahead and the lane lines ahead on both sides aren’t  
clear, the system also can assist the vehicle in following the  
track of the vehicle ahead.  
The assistant technology used in the MG  
pilot system cannot replace the driver’s  
judgment on the road and traffic conditions.  
The system can provide assistance for the  
driver but cannot replace the driver in driving.  
When choosing to use the MG pilot system,  
due to the limitations of system detection  
and control, the driver must always be  
careful. Failure to maintain overall control  
of the vehicle may result in an accident or  
personal injury.  
Note: The driver should adjust the vehicle speed and  
the following distance according to the road visibility,  
weather and road conditions. The MG pilot system  
does not respond to pedestrians, animals, stationary  
vehicles and vehicles that drive across the lane or  
oncoming vehicles in the same lane. If the MG pilot  
system cannot reduce the vehicle speed adequately,  
the driver MUST apply the brakes. In congested  
conditions, should another vehicle cut into the lane  
being used by the vehicle under MG pilot control, the  
system may not detect the vehicle in adequate time  
to make a braking manoeuvre. In this case the brakes  
should be applied by the driver.

The MG pilot system is a driver assistance  
function, it’s not auto pilot. There are many  
situations where the function is restricted or  
exits. The driver needs to hold the steering  
wheel at all times and correct or take over  
the steering wheel control if necessary.  
The MG pilot system needs to be used in conjunction with  
the adaptive cruise control system. The MG pilot system  
In the absence of a steering input from the driver for some  
seconds, an acoustic warning is provided, the instrument  
255  
STARTING & DRIVING  
pack provides a yellow prompt. If the system still fails to  
see an input from the driver, the acoustic warning becomes  
continuous and the prompt illuminates red. If the system  
still fails to detect an input from the driver, it will assume  
the driver is not able to keep their hands on the steering  
wheel and automatically exit the function. Accompanied by  
the exit, a more urgent acoustic warning is provided for at  
least 5s or until the driver holds the steering control again.  
MG pilot system setting  
Note: When the driver uses this function to follow  
the track of the vehicle in front, the driver MUST pay  
attention to the surrounding environment. Overall  
responsibility for direction and braking of the car  
remains with the driver.  
The operating interface for the MG pilot system is located  
in the infotainment display. Enter the vehicle setting  
interface to locate the driving assist option, scroll across  
the page to find the setting interface for the MG Pilot  
system. The driver may select to turn it on/off. To use  
the MG pilot system, the adaptive cruise control system  
must be turned on at the same time. When the function  
256  
STARTING & DRIVING  
is turned off, the message centre in the instrument pack  
will display the corresponding prompt.  
If the vehicle speed is below 37mph (60km/h), the  
system must be able to detect lane lines on both sides  
of the vehicle or a target vehicle directly ahead.  
If the vehicle speed is greater than 37mph (60km/h), the  
system must be able to detect lane lines on both sides  
of the vehicle.  
Turn the adaptive cruise control level to “RESUME” twice  
will switch the MG pilot system from standby to active  
state.  
The vehicle is in D.  
When the MG pilot function is enabled, the  
indicator lamp illuminates yellow. When the function is  
active, the indicator lamp illuminates green. When the  
function is disabled, the system indicator lamp extinguishes  
and the message centre in the instrument pack displays the  
prompt message. If the MG pilot system detects a fault or  
failure, the indicator lamp will flash yellow for 90s, and then  
remain on.  
The MG pilot system will be impaired in the  
following conditions:

The system detects that the driver has not moved the  
steering wheel for a preset time period.  
During system intervention the steering wheel is being  
manipulated by the driver.  
The technical requirements for MG pilot system are not  
met.  
Technical requirements for using MG pilot  
system:  
The front view camera is obstructed or it is impossible  
for the camera to detect the lane line ahead due to  
weather and environmental factors.  
The adaptive cruise control system must be activated.  
The MG pilot system must be switched on via the  
corresponding button in the infotainment system.  
The lane line is too thin, damaged, or fuzzy.  
The vehicle is driven on the bend with a small curvature  
radius.  
257  
STARTING & DRIVING  
The width of the road is too narrow or too wide.  
The vehicle is driven on a road section without lane  
lines.  
Driving through complicated road sections (such as  
urban sites and intersections).  
Driving on steep of excessively winding roads in low  
visibility.  
The vehicle has just entered a road section with lane  
lines.  
Driving on grass tracks or unpaved roads.  
The vehicle changes lanes.  
IMPORTANT  
The vehicle is not in D.  
The MG pilot system will not operate in the following  
situations:  
The vehicle sways laterally too fast.  
The vehicle speed is below 33mph (55km/h), or above  
111mph (180km/h).  
The driver indicates.  
The hazard lamps are activated.  
The driver applies the accelerator rapidly, carries  
out an emergency manoeuvre or makes a hard brake  
pedal application.  
The anti-lock brake system (ABS) and the dynamic  
stability control system (SCS) are activated.  
Faults exist in the anti-lock brake system (ABS), dynamic  
stability control system (SCS), electric power steering  
system (EPS), etc.  
It is recommended to turn off the MG pilot system in the  
following situations:  
Driving in a sports style or manner.
