    I did a quick search of the manual and didn't see the answer, but perhaps you folks know off the tops of your heads:

    If you use the Auto-Lock and -Unlock mode to unlock the charger cable when you're charged, can you still disconnect the charger on demand, even if it hadn't finished charging, by pressing the button in the charge-connector area with the smart key on your person?

    This on the Advanced trim level, I mean...

    you still have to physically remove the connector from the port for it to stop charging.

    OK, thanks. Most likely I'll keep it in that mode.

    Yup.

    That smart lock/unlock button in the charger area works regardless of setting.
