Brian,
 
You do not need to use Mode 1 to do that.  Just press the button twice before starting, when the controller is ON and it works fine.  I have been doing that for a long time.  When it is very cold, below zero C, I press the switch 4 times.  Never use the cold-start switch.

About the cold start- I prime the engine by hitting the program button for a second or two while in mode one. Maybe having some sort of device like a switch cover for the cold start might be a good idea.
 
Good flying Dave. Glad you pulled that one off safely without any damage to you or the plane.
