+# Systemd Integration
+
+Reflector includes systemd service and timer units that can be used to automatically update Pacman's mirrorlist. To use the timer, edit the configuration file at `/etc/xdg/reflector/reflector.conf` and then enable the timer with
+
+~~~{.sh}
+systemctl enable reflector.timer
+systemctl start reflector.timer
+~~~
+
+Check that status with `systemctl list-timers`. To update the mirrorlist immediately instead of waiting for the scheduled operation, run `systemctl start reflector.service`.
