Preconditioning

I appreciate how complex the preconditoning is, with various configurations of no aux heater, fuel-fired or electric, and my memory doesn't help either, but...

A couple of times recently, the preconditioning has failed, with the error message 'Parking climate not available as car not connected to mains' (or words to that effect). The preconditoning is set as a timer using the app.

It's a 2021 V60 T6 recharge with a fuel-fired aux heater. It works 90% of the time, but I've had a couple of errors as above. I'm not sure whether both were on warmer days, when the car sat in the sun and may have needed to cool rather than heat. Now, I'm sure last summer, the car cooled even when it wasn't plugged in, using the hybrid battery to run the air-con.

Could it be a recent software update has caused this (it was serviced at the end of January and presumably brought up to date)? Or is this how it should operate and I've just forgotten?
