Step by step.
- 01
Before leaving for a DC fast charger, open the MINI App and select the Vehicle tab.
- 02
Open Controls under Remote access.
- 03
Select Battery preconditioning.
- 04
Confirm the request and wait for the app to show that preparation was sent or started.
- 05
Drive to the DC station with enough lead time for battery temperature adjustment, then connect normally.
Important limits
- Battery preconditioning targets DC charging performance; it is separate from cabin heating or cooling.
- A vehicle built with older software may require an update before the app control appears.
- Final charging speed also depends on charger output, battery state of charge and ambient conditions.
Quick checks.
- ✓If Battery preconditioning is missing, verify the Countryman is the electric SE ALL4 and check for software 07/2024 or newer.
- ✓Refresh vehicle status and confirm Remote access is available for the correct MINI ID.
- ✓If the request fails, restore phone and vehicle connectivity and retry before beginning the trip.
