the valve is operated by a bi-metal strip. There is a electrical coil there aswell. When the engine is started the bitmetal strip is cold, as the electrical current heats the coil up, and as heat from the engine warms up the valve the two metals expand at different rates making the strip bend which gradually closes the valve.
So it is temperature dependant, but with help from the elctrical coil. This way if the engine warms up faster with driving the valve warms up fast and closes faster. Or if you start it and let it idle the valve warms up slower and stays on fast idle longer.
Very simple i know, but it seems to work pretty well.
Cheers
Chris
