THANK YOU FOR CHOOSING AN ASTROSTART REMOTE CAR STARTER! Like you, Astroflex is concerned with the environment. This is why we suggest using the two minute runtime when you remote start your vehicle to warm up engine fluids. We take this opportunity to remind you to properly defrost your windows and remove all the snow from your vehicle before driving on public roads. Rolling igloos are extremely dangerous!
