Ready Mode - MG ZS Series Manual

STARTING & DRIVING
systems will operate and the vehicle is ready to be
driven.
Note: Whilst in the OFF state, if the driver exits the
vehicle leaving the smart key inside, the horn will
sound three times in quick succession upon closure
of the driver's door. Subsequent re-opening of the
driver's door will display a warning message in the
instrument pack message centre to indicate that the
key is still in the car.
Note: To remove the electronic shift control knob from
P the vehicle must be in an ON/READY state and the
footbrake applied.
If your car is subject to strong radio signals the keyless
entry and start systems may suffer from interference and
not function correctly. Please see the 'Alternative Starting'
procedure.
