What are the functions of all the buttons in the MG5 interior?
3 Answers
MG5 interior function buttons include the front defrost/mist button, rear window heating button, air conditioning shortcut button, vehicle setup button, etc. Front defrost/mist button: Press the defrost/mist button, and the AC cooling switch will light up simultaneously. The system enters the defrost/mist function, used to remove mist or frost from the front windshield and front side windows. Rear window heating button: Press the rear window heating button, and the indicator light will illuminate, activating the rear window heating. The rear window heating will automatically turn off after working for 15 minutes. If activated a second time within 5 minutes, it will heat for 8 minutes before automatically turning off. While the rear window heating is active, pressing this button again will turn off the heating function, and the indicator light will go out. Air conditioning shortcut button: A short press will enter the air conditioning system interface on the central control display screen, where you can adjust the air conditioning functions. A long press can turn the air conditioning system on or off. Vehicle setup button: A short press will enter the vehicle setup interface on the central control display screen. Pressing it again will exit the interface.
I remember the first time I drove my friend's MG5, I was also baffled by all the buttons in the car. On the left side of the steering wheel are the volume, track skip, and voice control buttons, but don't randomly press that little red button on the right—it's the super sport mode switch! The center console is the most complex: the air conditioning zone has dual-zone temperature knobs, the fan icon controls the airflow, and the small car button with an arrow manages the air recirculation. The window controls are all on the driver's door handle, and holding down the lock button can automatically raise the windows. Next to the overhead reading light is an emergency call button, and the sunroof switch opens with a slight push for a tilt, and a full push opens it completely. I have to praise its design for retaining physical buttons—it's much more practical than cramming everything into a screen, especially when driving on the highway without the distraction of poking at a screen.
The button layout of the MG5 is actually quite reasonable. Behind the steering wheel, there are paddle-shaped buttons—left for decrease and right for increase—but they actually control the volume! Near the electronic gear lever on the center console, core functions are concentrated: electronic parking brake, auto hold, 360-degree camera, and the drive mode selector knob. On the AC panel, 'AC' is for cooling, while the front and rear window defroster buttons are clearly labeled. The door panel features an electric mirror adjustment knob—turn it to L/R and then tilt the directional lever to adjust the mirror angle. Besides the lighting switch, the overhead light area also includes an SOS emergency rescue button, and the sunroof switch comes with anti-pinch functionality. The small button at the top of the wiper stalk adjusts wiper sensitivity, which is especially useful during heavy rain.
