Climatize now function

The climatize now function works great on the i8, but does anyone know how to cancel it if you want it off? (short of getting in the car and manually turning off the vent )

I had the same question. Today I got in the car about 13 minutes later than the set time and the electric range had dropped by 5 km because it was pumping warm air but not drawing enough current from the outlet ( it was set to reduced)

Too bad the Connected app doesn't have the ability to turn it off. Gotta get that display key I guess ! $$$

Only ever used the display key from new, use the Preconditioning function on it all the time!

Same here. With a silicone sleeve and screen protector. It's pretty rugged like that but not becoming any smaller

I just keep mine in the fitted leather case it came with.

Far better than trying to use the app to precondition the car (slow and unreliable, and unusable when the car is outside of 3G signal).
