Auto-timeout in Tournament?

I know that there is an auto-timeout feature in tournament play, but how does that apply to tournament games in which White fails to make an opening move?

There is no countdown because the game has not been started, and I'm wondering what will happen and when.

No need to post. Found the answer in another thread.
