E-TENSE REMOTE CONTROL

Be in the know about your vehicle state of charge

On the welcome page of the MyDS app, you can see the remaining range of your vehicle in real time. You can also check whether you’re plugged in and charging, and see confirmation of the charging type (rapid or standard).

Stay in control of your vehicle, even from afar

Once your DS is plugged into a charging point, control the charging from your smartphone.

You can start, stop or programme a charge for a time to suit you, allowing you to benefit from any off peak charging tariffs without having to go out to your vehicle.

Equally, you can follow the real-time speed of charge and the remaining charging time.

In the event of any unplanned interruptions to your charging session, you can be alerted by your MyDS app. You will also be informed when your vehicle is fully charged.

In specific vehicle models you can also choose to stop the charging at a defined battery level, which reduces the charging time and may improve the battery’s performance and durability.

Enjoy optimum comfort from the moment you step inside your vehicle, regardless of the outside temperature. From your smartphone, pre-heat or pre-cool the cabin of your DS though the MyDS app* – whether you’re plugged in or not. If your vehicle is plugged in, the remaining range and state of charge of your battery won’t be diminished.

The E-TENSE Remote Control service also gives you the ability to plan pre-conditioning slots to suit your schedule, ensuring you can make the most of your DS in all circumstances.
