Default Quick Question Regarding Remote Start

My 2013 GS AWD has option V4 (remote start). Is there anyway to have the car automatically go to a preset setting such as hi fan hi heat and defrost when activating remote start regardless of where settings were left upon last shutdown? I think I know the answer but I got to ask. I see that with Carista I can have it auto blow fan on various settings but it doesnt address remote start. I had a vehicle in the past that would sense the temerature and auto turn on seat heaters fan on high, temp up and such when remote start was utilized, but I am thinking no such luck on this one

Would be nice to just have an option to remotely turn the climate system on or off and let the car decide what temperature the car should be.

Best option would be to remotely turn climate on/off and choose what temperature...

I just leave my HVAC and seat heat/ventilation on auto. Then when I remote start it, it’ll start working to get the cabin and seats to my desired temp.
