Am I doing something wrong?

I set my car to charge between 12 midnight and 5 am to benefit from my cheap EDF tariff.

this morning I expected the car to be about 60% charged but at 9am was showing 100% and 292 range.

How to I get it to stop charging at 5am ?

thanks folks!

I’ve done that and it continued charging!

thanks -I too have a very old Pod point and can’t seem to get on app. Never had to use it as previous Taycans could be set up from Porsche App or car.

I have a Simpson & Partners charger. I tried using their App and the car didn’t charge. I think that is because I have turned off Direct Charging to avoid using peak rate. I have set Manually Optimised Charging as 12:01 until 7:00am (my EV tariff of 7p / kw) with a departure at 7:00 and no preconditioning. If I want preconditioning at my real departure time I do that separately. has worked every time

Thank you - will try that ! Can you do it from Porsche App which is different from my old Taycans?
