...... But I wonder if this is the sequence of events that causes the bug:

1. Set the car to pre-heat at a scheduled time (through the R-Link)
2. Plug the car in (as is necessary for a scheduled pre-heat)
3. Possible additional step (see post from @essayer below): 10 minutes after scheduled pre-heat time (while pre-heat is still running) open and close the boot, then lock the car again.
4. Let the pre-heat cycle complete (car goes to sleep after pre-heating)
5. Use the pre-heat button on the key card to recommence heating

(Edit to say that the timed pre-heat that was set for 9:30am occurred as expected. The under-bonnet fans were operating, and when I opened the boot at around 9:40 (while the pre-heat was still operating), warm air was emitted from the car.)

Edit: Added Step 3. I have the Dynamique Nav with keyless entry, so I simply used the boot "button" to unlock the car and open the boot. I spent about 2 minutes loading the boot, closed it, and used the button on the passenger door handle to lock the car again.

Edit: Changed Step 1 to specify that the scheduled pre-heat is set via the R-Link touchscreen in the car (as this is what I did, and the behaviour may differ if the timer is set via the app instead).

Start car in non-Eco, turn climate control to 24C, deactivate AC, activate air circulation, then switch to Eco mode. You'll now have heating going bonanza, but you have the acceleration mapping for Eco mode.
