Fatigue alarm

[Yevgen K]

My car does this sometimes on longer journeys. Just switch off the driver fatigue alert in the settings. This can be done whilst driving. I have the Drive Mode Screen set as my left-hand shortcut button so it takes 5 seconds to switch it off. I find there is no obvious logic as to why it triggers sometimes but not others. I do the same 360-mile round trip journey up to 3 times a week and I'd estimate this happens once every tenth journey.

Sorry where you switched it off ? I can not find this option.

So, some dark voodoo magic then. It seems random to me when it activates

It really does seem to be dark voodoo magic. It's never activated on me, even when I drove for 3 hours 40 minutes without a break due to a traffic jam on the M25 followed by roadworks on the M1. I can't be doing the things that trigger it.

Well - it is a bit fiddly (while driving)...
Go to Car -> MG Pilot -> scroll all the way to "Driver attention warning system" and disable it...
It hasn't happened to me too often but that stopped the warning/beeping...

I think I found it and have turned mine off ??

Thanks for the tip ! I'm on version R40 in Xpower

Bottom row in the MG Pilot (may not be all models though). Mine is ver. R40 on Sept 2023 Xpower.

Seemed to be around 3 hours that triggered it for me after being stuck in long traffic jams on M1

I've merged a couple of threads here, as they were both active and dealing with the same issue. I hope the two conversations haven't become impossibly interlaced.

Hi guys I have an MG4 and when driving for a couple of hours and alarm goes off with an image of a coffee cup and says something like take a break with incessant beeping. This can’t be switched off and I can’t remove it from the settings can someone help please.

My car has just started doing this after 2 Years, Why?

The car has decided you are fatigued based on MG-knows-what. I think there is a setting under MG pilot about driver attention or something but not sure if the setting remains or if it defaults back to on every time you drive.

Did you recently have it serviced or a visit to the garage? They might have applied a software update.
