To backup the "between 9 and 10" answer, mine measures 9.7kWh using the digital meter installed with the charging point.

You can have Auto without A/C. Hold down the snowflake button for 10 seconds and the default toggles on/off.

Use the other catch. It fits into the slot perfectly.

Correction ... I paid closer attention to the clunks at the end of charging this morning and it's actually 3! First is about 20 seconds before the final two, so mystery about the odd number of clunks solved!

I have the same Rolec unit and concur. There's a single clunk on starting to charge and then 2 clunks about 5 seconds apart when it's finished. It's puzzling why there's 2 at the end but my energy monitor always shows charging has stopped at that point.

If the car is charging there should be a solid red charging symbol on the dash display. Being a Rolec unit you should have a separate digital meter somewhere. Does that show any usage?

Same here, but with an additional comment: "Never use B4 or B5" :roll:

I wonder if you've read this thread. There are certain circumstances where the ICE starts unnecessarily, documented thoroughly throughout this thread. It would be nice for the driver to have some control to stop this occuring.

Ordered mine in November and it took 10 weeks.

It doesn't 'beep' ... it's more of a melodic wirey grinding noise. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GEivtfIVNow

I also have a Rolec charge point, professionally installed by a local electrician assigned by Rolec. Mine came with a separate meter so I can see precisely how many kWh have been used for charging. I believe the Chargemaster system has an online portal for usage info, but I'll let someone else...

Black ... full time job keeping it shiney, but so worth the effort ... gorgeous!

Very true, but setting to B5 gives the full range of regen, plus ability to coast, plus acceleration, all on the same pedal. It's subjective, but for me personally, it's the most comfortable way to manage speed. The good thing this thread highlights is the car's ability to be flexible. You have...

Like Anko, I've settled on engaging B5 most of the time which then means I can use the accelerator pedal to accelerate, brake and coast. It does take a little time to get used to positioning the pedal correctly, but it's just a matter of muscle memory training. I find doing things this way...
