use the --timeout parameter, like in my /etc/auto.master:

# Sample auto.master file
# Format of this file:
# mountpoint map options
# For details of the format look at autofs(8).
/vol/tmpmnt	/etc/auto.misc	--timeout 2

There were some problems with processing this parameter in some
versions of autofs (don't know if the version in slink is buggy), if
you get problems update to a version > 3.1.1-4.
