MG3 Hybrid+
MG3 Hybrid+ Trophy. New last Tuesday.

The Owner’s Manual (pages 31 & 33) shows the Instrument Pack - Type A (HEV Models) as having the following menu structure for the Message Centre (item 4, top right side of the display):

Health Centre: Tyre Pressure Monitoring, Low-voltage Battery, Warning Message
Trip Computer: From Start, Accumulated Total, Odometer, Power Meter, Energy Flow, Accelerogram
Navigation: Display navigation information from the entertainment system
Settings: Brightness Level, Overspeed Threshold, Next service, Time setting, Unit settings, Language
Media: Displays any multimedia messages from the infotainment system
Bluetooth Phone: Displays any Bluetooth phone information from the entertainment system

However, on my car the only displays that can be seen from the Message Centre, by pressing the right arrow on the joystick button, scroll through:
Tyre Pressure (Health Centre)
From Start (Trip Computer)
Next Service (Settings) - (mileage until next service is shown by top or bottom joystick arrows)
The Odometer is displayed continuously as ODO below.

I can find no way of accessing all the other information that's supposed to be provided in the Message Centre.
All of the Settings items, other than Next service, can be accessed on the central infotainment screen, as against the driver's instrument pack screen. So that's not really a problem.

The ones I would particularly like to see, but can't, are Accumulated Total, Power Meter & Energy Flow (I don't know what an Accelerogram is).
I'm wondering if this is an issue anyone else has found? Do I have a software fault?
Obviously I'll take it up with the dealer but thought I'd check here before doing so.
Grateful for any advice.
 
Hi if you look at the buttons on the steering wheel right hand side next to the joystick, if your press the centre button this opens up different menus, and you can scroll up and down left and right with the joystick, once you have finished press the centre button again to release the menus otherwise on my car the radio stays on mute on the joystick
 
Thanks. I think I've found the problem. User error :rolleyes:
I was pressing the joystick button downwards (away from me) at each edge rather than pushing it in the direction of the arrows. So I think the issue is resolved without recourse to further interaction with dealer or software updates. I need a reboot!
