Tesla scheduled charging causes confusion

Scheduled charging for Teslas can be confusing for some people. The problem arises because not everyone understands that the scheduled charging procedure is different from that for direct charging. Consequently, some behaviors of the car undergoing timer charging are misinterpreted by the user. The vehicle preparation and charging logics differ from those typical for direct charging, so one might think the vehicle has finished the charging process or that there are problems. In reality, the car is still charging. Some people think it's the Tesla charging cable's "fault," but in reality, it works perfectly. To eliminate any doubt, it is advisable to proceed with direct charging in manual mode, deactivating all scheduled charging profiles and carefully checking the charger or wallbox settings. When the car and wallbox have charging timer settings, this creates further confusion.
