Sorted . Synched clock with DAB

Unsure, just noticed the time - it must have changed automatically last autumn.

MG ZS EV gen 1 - time displayed this morning showing BST ( 1 week early ). Presumably can correct via settings

Thanks, yes it has app which can control the charger. Obviously Gen 1 doesn’t link with MG app and doesn’t have the same level of managing/monitoring charge ( such as setting 80% cut off). Will get back to Octopus to pursue

Slightly confused- gen 1 2020 ZS. Last time looked on Octopus app- MG was supported, but charger isn’t , Free2Charge Wallbox. Does this mean I could use EV tariff ?

Two tips that might help - small dehumidiers in cabin to stop misting up ( taken from another post ) . Use heated seats rather than heater to preserve battery range ( from EV charging guide)

Great reply, I think I will carry on as per:- monthly granny charge and equalisation, coupled with top-ups as and when required ( instavolt app shows charging profile with 'drop-off' at approx 80% - that's my cue to stop charging ). hopefully home charging unit being installed soon - FREE2MOVE...

I agree, thread discussion threw me with % displayed comments. Given the point about previous trips affecting charging capacity, do you think it's good practice to zero the trip details prior to a "granny equalisation" charge to ensure battery gets charged to right level ?

Quick aside , how do you get % charge displayed on 2020 ZS EV all I ever see is miles

Latest update. home charger waiting to be fitted (any day now)-apparently the supplier, not the utility company, has to give you 'permission' to get it installed, plus your electrics need to be up to scratch

Great, I’ll try this next time.

Thanks, it’s secondhand . I’ll. check with dealer Just to add, the car did charge upto 196 miles. Display on left all bars, display on left round about 8 bars… that said it hadn’t gone through balancing. Display on right all bars

MG ZS EV 2020 - Did 2nd granny charge at home. Charger light lit, breather badge pulsed. But no charging info on display in car. All other methods of charging display charging info. Is this correct ?

Marvellous. Great help

Currently with eon. Just got tethered home charger from dealer. Looking to purchase a type 2 to type 2 cable to carry round in the car. Noticed that there are different types available. Which is the best to use at for example ‘free’ supermarket chargers that are 7kW

MG ZS 2020. Recommendations and advice for home charger units ( do they need to be ‘tied’ to utility provider ) and charger cable ( for away from home charging ). Car only came with granny charger

Can”t honestly remember the percentage, but took less than an hour. Not even sure if the chargers showed a percentage. The battery indicator only shows miles left not perecentage charge either. Plus the I charge app isn’t compatible with 2020 model. Thanks for the info re sequence. It’s been...

Thanks for prompt reply. It has had all updates, and the wall charger is on order. I have rapid charged before where the charged either stops or there is a prompt to stop charging, after which I unplug the cable. I’m after the sequence to use at home to stop charging- this isn’t clear in the...

New owner of SZ 2020 ( 3 weeks). Doing first home charge using granny charger. I would like confirmation of the correct sequence to stop the charge. Is it:- unlock car (this release charging cable) remove cable switch off at mains. (this seems slightly suspect with a live charging cable) or...
