Hi All -
I've been reading a lot and have not seen an answer to this. Is there a way to change the duration of the remote start before it turns off/times out? Mine is 10 minutes which I believe is the default, this is honestly way too short in below freezing temps. You need at least 15-20 minutes for the car to warm up.
I read the manual I found in another thread and didn't see it mentioned which was discouraging: http://ep.yimg.com/ty/cdn/yhst-24809172479195/cx9remotestartN02B.pdf
I also took the car to the Mazda dealer and at first they said it was possible, though it needed to be cold temp outside which it was (?) and after fooling around a bit said it wasn't possible to change the duration.
I'd love to increase the time, I'm not sure why the default would be so short when in the temps you'd want to use it the car doesn't warm up enough. Very silly!
Thanks for the help!
