Cabin too hot after preconditioning

Tudordriver · Nov 26, 2017

I have now owned my i3 for one week

I have used preconditioning a few times and cabin ends up too hot. Can I change the temperature the cabin warms up to or do I shorten the preconditioning time

In summer will I be able to cool the cabin with preconditioning?

Thanks

I've not noticed that...what is the setting of the thermostat?

Preconditioning will work to try to achieve the desired setting, whether it requires heating or cooling.

Thanks.
This morning the temperature was set to 29 degrees C, which is obviously too hot. I am not sure how this happened

This afternoon, after the car had not been used for a couple of hours I set the temp to 19 before shutting down. When I got in the car it was warming than 19 would be when driving but hard to test I guess.

I will test with a lower temperature again and see what happens

THanks

Preconditioning will use the last settings (temperature, which vents to use, intensity) before you last shut off the car.
