When the key is turned off, the screen shuts down as long as you are using the plug that goes directly into the car's plug.

I don't think you have to do that. I do think that you'll have to have stuff turned off before you fire it up. It's too much of a drain having it draw everything. I had problems starting my 13500 btu AC unit. Started the gen, then turned on the AC. Compressor wouldn't turn over. Turns out there must be a capacitor in the AC that stores startup power. I ran the gen for about 5 minutes with no load, then turned on the AC. All went well. Be warned....This unit is HEAVY and LOUD. I thought I could get by going El Cheapo. But now I'm thinking of buying a Champion 3000 watt Inverter unit for $900 or two Honda 2000's in parallel. I don't think you have to do that.

Yes, if it has power from the car battery and you cut off the ignition it will turn off automatically in about 15 seconds. If you want to keep it on you have about 15 seconds to push a button to keep it on.

Yes! There is an "auto" button that allows it to stop once it reaches a certain temp but if you want it on all the time you can press that button to turn it off.

yes. the camera will turn itself off after you turn ignition off; it may take about 15 seconds to happen.

Yes, you can disconnect the light unit. There are instructions in the box that explain how to do this.

You just need to be able to turn the ignition on without turning the car on

I leave mine on all the time and it draws less amperage than an alarm-no moving parts whatsoever. You can set it to shut down after the vehicle is stopped too. I bought another one for my other car too.

If I understand your question correctly, yes you can simply turn off the unit by using the remote. It does not have a light sensor so there is no "on at sunrise/off at dusk" feature.

There is no way to turn it off, but after a short time it powers off by itself. However, if you barely touch it, it will come back on again. I just put mine in a place where I won't bump it when I'm done.

I'm not sure that you can. But, since the handheld unit serves no purpose if the parent unit is off - you just need to turn it off anytime the parent unit is off.

Yes as long your power outlet (cigarette lighter) goes off when you turn off the engine.There is no On/Off button on the device

Yes, it does switch off itself when ignition is off. After 19,000 hours, I think it will be ineffective but you should still be able to use it. Honestly, I am not sure if it will still work after 13 years if I based on 4 hours usage a day. I would reckoned it has been a good return on investment. :-)

hi, no i would think not but if that was a problem either of you only have to press the big volume knob to turn off both units.the same goes then to turn back on. really simple to operate. either unit will turn both on or off while riding. to completely shut down the units after riding they are turned off individually.

it does not have an auto off option, but you can place the hi/lo/off switch in the off position and you will kill the power to the seat. Most connetors are not powered when car is turned off.

If your lighter plug turns on and off with the ignition switch and you leave the power to the unit in the on position then yes.

I dont believe it does. My car turns all power off to it when I turn the ignition off so has never been an issue for me.
