Before collection
- Install the official app from your phone’s verified app store listing.
- Bring every access device supplied with your car—including any key fob or key card—plus your account details and access to the email address used for the order.
- Ask the retailer to confirm the precise UK trim and current software version.
At handover
- Walk around the vehicle and record any damage before accepting it.
- Pair the primary phone and verify that lock status updates correctly.
- Check that the supplied charging equipment matches the order.
- With the car parked, locate the hazard switch and essential demisting controls.
Safety boundaryIf a warning affects braking, steering, restraint systems, battery temperature or safe driving, follow the vehicle warning and contact MG assistance. A web guide is not a diagnostic tool.
Your first home charge
- Park safely, switch the car off and inspect the cable and connector.
- Connect firmly and confirm that the vehicle reports charging—not merely connected.
- Set a limit appropriate to your next journey, following current MG guidance.
- Before leaving, verify the estimated completion time in both car and app.
During the first week
Change one unfamiliar assistance setting at a time while parked. Keep a note of anything that unexpectedly resets, and report reproducible behaviour with the software version and date.
