The indicator light will turn on, the screen will display and flash ‘1H’, indicating in 1 hour the heater will turn ON/OFF respectively. Press the ‘RESERVE/TIMER’ button again to increase the timer by 1 hour until a maximum of 9 hours. To cancel the timer, press the ‘RESERVE/TIMER’ button until ‘0H’ displays.
