Somehow, I can not get the range setting that I desire. For instance, if I would set for 8 green tabs, the miles are way off and then vice versa. If I would set for about 200 miles then range is more about 70% What is the best procedure to follow for setting range. I would like to stay at 80% or at 200 miles. I also understand that once the range is set, it is subject to varying. Do I have to re-range before each charge?:)

Reported driving range for a given state of charge is based on your most recent driving pattern, and it can fluctuate a lot. You do not "set" the range. It's simply a calculated result. So it is going to be quite difficult to try to charge your car to a specific range. You should set the charge level to a certain % and accept whatever range number it comes out with.
