Been reading the owners handbook and I can't recall having seen a discussion on this point. I'm not clear from reading the manual what the answer is so looking for any guidance.
I understand how the precondioning works I.e. The car starts charging and preconditioning to hit the set departure time. What if this conflicts with the settings for favourable charging I.e the time when electricity is cheap?
Or is it not possible to set both options at the same time?
For instance, if you tell the car that cheap rate tariff is 00:01 to 06:30 say but you set a departure time of 09:00. Will it get all its charging done up to 06:30 then only start preconditioning the vehicle at about 08:30 or is it not that clever?
