How To Precondition and Manage Charging | BMW How-To
The intuitive features of the My BMW app give you easy access to all the charging settings of your vehicle so you can rest assured that it is charged, preconditioned and ready when you are.
Launch the app with your connected BMW to see its current state of charge and range. Scroll to charging and select charge and climate settings. Use the charging settings to adjust the charging target. Charging will stop when the charging is reached. Charging to 80% typically leaves you with enough driving miles and is recommended for optimal battery life. You can charge your vehicle to 100% when you need the full range for an upcoming trip, but it is not recommended to do this every day.
Use the Charge & Climate Timer settings to control the charging mode and set a departure time. You can set your charge time to the middle of the night when energy prices are typically lower. When automatic climate control is on, the interior of your BMW will be adjusted to a comfortable temperature at your set departure time.
Departure times let your BMW know when you want to set off so your vehicle is charged at the appropriate time. You can set your usual departure times for each day of the week or set a one off timer for today to override the weekly timer.
Once everything looks okay, tap update in My BMW.
Sometimes your scheduled changes need to end the current charge early. No problem, you can stop the charge right from the home screen of the app.
