Showroom mode. Help!

[MGenius]

Hi,

I have somehow managed to place my IM5 into Showroom Mode (i was messing about in settings and a dialogue box popped up on the upper dashboard screen. No idea what i pressed for it to happen).

Consequently it won't drive anywhere. Ive had a look online and followed just about every different step suggested to exit the mode, but to no avail.

Short of ringing MG tomorrow, has anyone else done this and knows the way out.

Does anyone know how to get an IM6 out of showroom mode? Was just programming the radio and somehow engaged showroom mode. I don't know how to remove it, I get a link to highlights mode in the bottom left of the screen and am unable to drive it, I can't select a gear. I tried a restart, power down and system reset, nothing works

Thanks, that worked! Didnt work at first, but then (at a guess as id changed it earlier) I toggled the SW Switching Setting to 'Valid', in the radio settings menu. Then it worked.
