Apparently my wife would rather have the light come on when I shut the machine off manually than having a gale blowing in her ear before the machine finally shuts itself off after what she described as an enternity. And, the icing on the cake? The idiot machine lit the display to tell me it had shut off automatically? 
auto start on the DS is no secret, i use it every night.
good feature with no light to disturb the wife.
as for the auto stop, never got it to shut down automatically, even after leaving it blowing for a few minutes.
machine is only 3 months old
The auto start on my DreamStation works well but, as others say, auto stop is useless. I personally don't mind a little light when getting up during the night but you could just jay a sock on the machine so it covers the light. My wife is never aware of the light unless she happens to be already awake. The only thing recently that I couldn't sleep through was the direct lightning hit on the house next door.
