Lights coming on when scheduled octopus charge starts

[Fender]

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?

Turn OFF the Follow Me Home and the Welcome options in the Vehicle settings.

Thanks for your advice.
I did try that without success but may not have saved the changes?
Will give it another go.

Yep I have this too. I’ll try the follow me home tip to see if it changes things.

Set both light settings off and checked they didn’t come on when parked and start. Confirm the settings and lights did not come on.
Schedule charge start and lights came on. So it seems this is not a fix.
Contacted MG customer support who were next to useless saying our technical support only speaks to the dealer network. They advised I contact my dealer, which I have already done and they have never come across this situation.
Will give dealer a call and see what they suggest
