EPB Switch Failure Mode
If the driver's seatbelt has been fastened and the
accelerator pedal has been pressed to maneuver, the EPB
system will automatically turn off.
When the EPB switch fails, the EPB malfunction indicator
lamp on the vehicle instrument pack illuminates and the
electronic parking function cannot be enabled normally
when operating the EPB switch at this time. You should
drive your vehicle to an MG Authorised Repairer for repair
immediately.
Emergency Braking Function
Inappropriate use of the EPB can lead to
accidents and injuries. Do not apply the
EPB when the vehicle is in motion, unless
it is an emergency.
If your vehicle should be parked with the EPB fault present,
please drive to a flat ground and operate the start switch
to turn off the power system (keep the instrument pack
powered on and illuminated). The brake system will
automatically perform the electronic parking emergency
function to ensure that the vehicle is parked safely.
When the vehicle is decelerating with the
use of the EPB, DO NOT switch off the start
switch as this could result in a serious injury.
In the event of normal brake failure during driving,
emergency braking can be initiated by pulling the EPB
switch upward and holding. An audible warning will sound
during emergency braking. The braking process will be
cancelled by releasing the EPB switch.
IMPORTANT
Do not park on a slope to prevent the vehicle from
rolling when an EPB fault is present.
After the electronic parking emergency function is enabled,
fasten your seat belt, start the power system, shift into
Drive or Reverse gear, release the clutch pedal (if equipped)
and depress the accelerator pedal. The electronic parking
