SERVICE:
In November 2022 the settings for Scheduled Charging have been turned off in the Volvo Cars App.
The following information regarding this action taken was released in TIE news on 2022-11-11:
Since the team had to turn off the iCUP PHEV scheduled charging, we have had reports stating that
some customers can still see the timers, when they press on them and the app seems to wait for
the scheduled charging to start. Please note that a hotfix for 5.21 will resolve this. For the customers
thinking they can’t charge outside of the set timer, this is not the case, they can charge whenever
but the scheduling charging is not working properly.
Note: Since Scheduled Charging settings are not accessible via the IHU, iCUP PHEV vehicles lack
this functionality entirely for the time being.
In the meantime, the release of the overall fixes - that will enable the use of scheduled charging on
iCUP PHEV again - are scheduled:
*LR PHEV (Engine code: H6) - software release 2023Q3
*SR PHEV (Engine code: BC, BR) - software release 2023Q3
Note: As soon as information regarding a specific software release window is available, this TJ is
going to be updated.
This TJ is going to be updated also once the (not yet published) software release weeks are reached
and it is fully confirmed that the respective software release is going to enable the scheduled
charging functionality. By that time a total upgrade will be demanded.
As of now, this TJ does not require any task to be done.
