From my experience, the iv does charge the battery a bit when plugged into the HV mains. Using a voltmeter the built in charger is not at a high enough voltage and looks like a poor 12V battery charger is installed unfortunately. My Ctek finishes the job in AGM mode and should preserve the 12V battery life from previous experience.

As this is a company fleet car it was delivered to my drive. I was asked to sign here. I could only tick 30% of the boxes as most controls/features weren't/couldn't be explained. The fleet rep admitted to never having done a handover - luckly the co-driver knew a lot more and advised well. As a Freedom Briskodian and this is my second Octy I know what to look for. There was no SD card in the sat nav. No rubber mats provided but these were on original order. Car was clean and no interior or exterior faults found - yet Upon connecting my CTEK charger the battery hadn't been charged and was low. All tyre pressures were incorrect - I adjusted these myself. So to name and shame the car was provided by DM Keith Leeds. Minor issues but my sig line remains...
