We have set up our charging times according to our Electrical providers lowest rates, which is 10pm to 5 am. We routinely charge when we get to around 30% and charge to 90%. Today, because of expected storms, we wanted to change that slightly so that we'd get a partial charge that would cut off earlier...

I always assumed the "Start" button would override the programmed preferred charging time and start the charge prior to our 10 pm start time. It did not start. I tried added a new start end time, but this it would not allow since it overlapped an existing time (the new one was 8 to 11, 8 to 10, and then I tried 7 to 9, all failed. I tried deleting my existing preferred times completely to see what would happen. They were not deleted. I even tried reducing the 90% down to 50% to see if that would have an impact on deleting charge times and setting up new ones, but it would not change (I assumed because it wasn't actually charging at the time).

Can anyone shed any light on why I cannot change charging % or preferred charging times.

Okay, never mind. It was because it was plugged into the charger. I tried to delete the post but didn't see anywhere to do this...
