This feature is not available with manual transmissions. Matter of fact,
this particular vehicle is not available in anything but an automatic
transmission.

My car has a feature that will automatically start it and charge the
batteries if the voltage drops below 11 volts. I haven't tested it
but apparently the designers felt this was a good figure.

Hopefully only when in Neutral or Park....... :-))

Mmm... I realize this might seem a silly remark, but here in Europe, most
cars have a manual gearbox and it is very common to leave the car in 1st
gear when parked, instead of using the parking break.
