LOW TEMPERATURE MODE

In Low Temperature (Sentinel) mode, system starts your engine automatically when temperature falls
below a preset level.
Engine will run for programmed runtime, after which system will wait 2½ hours and then start engine again
if temperature is still below preset level.
To activate/deactivate Low Temperature mode, press
When mode is activated:
Parking lights will flash 4 times, then, if temperature is below preset level, engine will start.
If temperature is above preset level, system waits until it goes below preset level before starting.
If system cannot execute command (for example, safety sequence is not valid, hood is open, etc),
confirmation will be different (lights: 3).
When mode is deactivated:
Parking lights will flash twice to confirm that mode is deactivated. Applying brakes also deactivates Low
Temperature mode.
