Brake - MG Hector Owner's Manual

Intelligent Charging Mode
In the intelligent charging mode, the system
charges the 48V battery.
Fault Mode
When the 48V hybrid power system fails, the
fault warning lamp turns on, and the
corresponding prompt appears on the
instrument. The vehicle enters the limp home
mode. The torque output is limited, and the
vehicle cannot accelerate. Please immediately
drive to the Service Center for inspection.

Brake

The brake system is designed for the braking
performance under the driving conditions in
wide range. In the braking process, the vehicle
speed is reduced through the braking friction
and the friction between tyres and ground. It is
normal that small braking friction sounds and
friction sounds between tyres and ground are
given with no need for special treatment. It is
also normal that occasional squeals are given
in braking. Squeals may be produced for such
causes that other matters may adhere to the
friction faces during operation of the vehicle,
the vehicle is out of operation for a long time,
or friction faces get rusted after raining. As
long as squeals are produced at a lower
frequency, there is no need for special
treatment.
To avoid the pedal travel from being
influenced, do not lay a thick carpet in the
brake pedal area.
If you find that the brake pedal fails to return
or the brake pedal travel becomes longer, we
strongly advise you to have your vehicle
inspected at the MG Authorised Service
Center. This may indicate a faulty brake
system.
DRIVING AND CONTROLS
Note
When you drive your vehicle in one high-
altitude area, continuously braking may
cause the brake pedal force to increase.
Note
To run in the friction plate and the brake
disc and confirm the performance and
the service life, after purchasing a vehicle
and installing new friction plates, you had
better avoid emergency braking or
braking for a long time within millage of
200 km.
Warnings
Please check whether the brake lamp is
normal before driving your vehicle. Keep
the vehicle running at low speed after
starting the vehicle, and check the braking
performance. You shall do more like this
especially after your vehicle is just washed.
The wet brake may cause an accident. In
case the brake is wet, the brake fails to
function well and thus the vehicle may be
out of control due to lateral deviation.
Therefore, after driving through water or
having your vehicle cleaned, keep the
vehicle running at low speed and depress
the brake pedal intermittently and gently,
so as to dry the brake.
