I used the guide as attached, not sure where I got it from now.

I also reset the BMS using the procedure below:

1. Switch on ignition (do not start engine)
2. Switch on dipped beam
3. Press the rear fog light button six times (on-off-on-off-on-off)
4. Press the hazard lights button three times (on-off-on)
5. The battery symbol on the dash should flash quickly three times.

It sounds slightly ridiculous but it works.
Just did exactly that and it worked. Had a bit of a faff getting the ignition on without the engine but once I managed that then the procedure above worked perfectly. Thanks.
