Immediate charge at low SoC

Hi,


Have any of you experienced that at very low SoC (not sure at which SoC level such behavior starts, but almost for that below at least 10%), once the car is connected to the charger, it starts to charge immediately, even if one has the car programmed to only charge at low cost time slot?


When such happens, the car charges immediately up to around 12%, then it pauses charging, and finally it charges up the remaining SoC in the defined low cost time slot.

I'm wondering if this a feature, so that the battery does not stay at a very SoC level, or then if there is something strange going on with the car.


Thanks!!!
 
Soon after I got the car I tried a distance test and got home with 2% SOC when I plugged in and it did start to charge immediately, but I can’t remember if I had it set to charge in a time window or not.
