@pearlmikejam Ah, I forgot about that little nuance.

I’m afraid your original assessment is correct: the vehicle will use the last setting that was used before it was turned off. So you’ll need to leave it on “auto” in order for the system to pick the temperature itself.

This, however, isn’t optimal for users — and it should be smart enough to switch back to auto by itself. 🙁
