Charging a new plug-in Tucson

Help!!! I've just taken delivery of a plug-in Tucson. Having real trouble getting it to accept charge! My wall unit says "charge delayed" which apparently means the car is waiting for a scheduled charge. But on the car's control panel, I simply can't see how to set it so it ignores possible "departure times" and "off-peak periods". (If I want to restrict the time, I'll do that via the wall charger anyway.) Does anyone know how to tell the car to just accept the plug and take in the charge? I'm probably being stupid, but I just can't understand the instructions! (And I haven't even attempted to set the myriad of other options - voice recognition, for example.)

Not sure about directly on the car but if you use the blue link app it can be programmed there

Don’t use the Bluelink app to set schedules. I just plug in my Indra charger and that decides when to charge. I just set it to say I need the car by 0800. Sometimes it doesn’t come on till the early hours after being plugged in at 1800

You can over ride the schedule by pressing a button near were you plug in I think I read or watched or was told. To much information sometimes , hope this helps

Think it's the rubber one under the (filler cap?).

It may help to look at the charge management section on this page

Thanks I think you might have just answered my question to why didn't our Tucson charge last night when I had set scheduled charging, (first time using scheduled charging ) I'm sure I pressed the button after I had set scheduled charging to see what it does
