STARTING & DRIVING
The MG Pilot system needs to be used in conjunction with
the adaptive cruise control system. The 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, 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.
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.
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.

In the absence of a steering input from the driver for some
seconds, an acoustic warning is provided, the instrument
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.
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.
