Lights coming on when scheduled octopus charge starts

[fx860e]

Hi all. Newbi here.
Collected new 2025 HS Trophy Phev in December 25. Set up charging with octopus intelligent go with Hypervolt Home pro3 charger. Everything connecting and car charging. No scheduled charge set up in ismart mg app.
When the scheduled charge (octopus sets the schedule) starts, the headlights and tail lights come on for approx 20 seconds then go off. This happens every time a charge starts within the schedule.
I have spoken to my dealer who advised , has never come across this. Hypervolt has checked charger and all looks good.
Anyone experiencing this weird event?

I have recently started using a Scottish power setup with a Easee charger and have twice now setup for night charging and my security cameras show that the lights come on every 4 minutes for 30 seconds! And we have a neighbour facing us at the end of our cul-de-sac……Great.

There are covers available designed for the front end of cars, but that's a bit of a faff and shouldn't be necessary really ...
