Autostart of the car engine is quite convenient for the Russian climate: both in the sultry heat and in severe frosts. Machines that are equipped with an alarm with this function meet their owners in the winter with a hot stove, and in the summer they are cooled by air conditioning.
Remote engine startup is very useful in winter. Not having time to get out of home heat, the motorist finds himself in a warm car. No need to wait for thawing mirrors and windshield. It is enough to open the car door, sit comfortably and immediately go. In addition, some drivers are confident that the engine does not need heating in the summer. But this is a mistake, even if the car is in the sun. The advantage of automatic start is that by the time the driver arrives, the air conditioner turned on in advance will cool the interior.
Installation of autorun and the principle of operation in each of the individual cases are selected individually, depending on the capabilities and wishes. Alarm with auto start can be installed on cars with diesel and gasoline engines. For a diesel engine, a certain delay is set before starting the starter. It is required in order for the spark plugs to warm up, and the system to prepare for launch.
Due to the features of the diesel engine, it will still be cold in the car after warming up the engine. But there is the possibility of regulating the operation of such devices as heating glasses and mirrors. In this case, by the time the driver appears, frost will not be present on them, and after the movement starts, the stove will begin to supply hot air to the passenger compartment. Compared with autonomous heating of the passenger compartment, the autostart engine is much more economical and cheaper.
Also, the gearbox is not significant. Be it automatic or mechanic, the main thing is not to leave cars with manual transmissions in the gear. This is necessary to secure the handbrake. Otherwise, the car will jerk sharply at startup.
Auto start of the engine can be carried out using a keychain or other device. In some cases, for example, you can use a mobile phone for this purpose. Autostart of the engine can be configured to activate when the temperature drops to a certain value or assigned for a certain time. For example, you can turn it on in the morning before you need to go to work.
In machines that are equipped with an immobilizer, autorun is carried out by the signal of a key hidden in the car. To do this, the owner of the car must submit a request to the official dealer to make a duplicate of it. Naturally, this affects the cost of insurance, because the car is on the street with a spare key lying inside. In addition, in a variety of alarms during the operation of the engine in stand-alone mode , the shock sensor is turned off , and back on only after the engine is turned off. It turns out that the car at this time becomes more vulnerable to thieves and car thieves.
