  • a) General information

    • Protect the product from extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, strong jolts, high humidity, moisture, flammable gases, vapours and solvents.
    • Do not place the product under any mechanical stress.
    • This product is not a toy. Keep it out of the reach of children and pets.
  • b) Installation

    • The installation work may only be carried out by a qualified expert familiar with the hazards involved and with the corresponding regulations.
    • Before connecting the device, turn off the power circuit to which the device is to be connected. Remove the corresponding main fuse or trip the automatic fuse.
    • Ensure that all corresponding cables are dead. Ensure that the cables are isolated and that the contact points are covered. Never use bare wires for the connection.
    • The device is protected internally against interference through a protective circuit. Despite these protective measures, very strong magnetic fields may impair its function.
    • Interference can be avoided by observing the following installation rules:
    • Do not install the device near inductive loads (e.g. motors, transformers or con-tactors).
    • The power should be supplied via a separate mains circuit (with a mains filter if required).
    • Inductive loads must be equipped with protective devices to reduce overvoltages (varistors, RC filters).
    • Check whether interference signals are emitted when the time switch is used together with other devices in a system.
  • c) Connected devices

    • Always observe the safety instructions and operating instructions of any other devices that are connected to the product.

c) Setting switching intervals

  • A total of 20 switching intervals can be set and stored. One switching interval consists of 2 switching options: ON and OFF.

The settings for ON/OFF switching times cannot overlap and must follow the natural timeline. If this does happen, e.g. the switch-on and switch-off time are set the same, 15.00 hrs on/15.00 hrs off, the time switch switches the current at the relay output on at the switch-on time before switching it off again after 15 seconds. If you connect an appropriate audible or visual warning device to the output, a corresponding warning signal is emitted.

  1. Press and hold the button (4) for approx. 1 second to switch to the switch-on time of the first programme. The ‘ON’ symbol is displayed on the LC display (8) with the memory number of the switching interval.
  2. Press the D+ button (5) to set the days on which the switch-on operation should occur. The day combinations of ‘MO-FR’, ‘MO-SA’, ‘SA-SU’, ‘MO-WE’, ‘TH-SA’, ‘MO WE FR’, ‘TU TH SA’ can be selected. In the loop, press the button until the desired weekday combination is displayed.
  3. Press the H+ button (9) to set the hours for the time at which the switch-on operation should occur. Press the MANUAL button (11) to reset a set/displayed programme time.

  5. Press the MANUAL button (11) to reset a set/displayed programme time while setting.
  6. Press and hold the button (4) for approx. 1 second to switch to the switch-off time of the first programme. The ‘OFF’ symbol is displayed on the LC display (8) with the memory number of the switching interval.
  7. Press the H+ (9) or M+ button (10) to set the time (hours, minutes) at which the switch-off operation should occur.
  8. Press and hold the button (4) for approx. 1 second to switch to the next program memory space. The next memory number of the switching interval is displayed on the LC display (8). You can now set the days and/or switch-on and switch-off times for each desired programme storage space in the same way.
  9. Press the button (3) to cancel a setting at any time. The LC display (8) returns to the normal time display.
  10. After completing the program setting, press the MANUAL button (11) to activate programming. ‘ON AUTO’ or ‘AUTO OFF’ is displayed.

  5. Press the button (4) to set the switch-on time for the first switching pulse. The ‘ON’ symbol is displayed on the LC display (8) with the memory number of the switching pulse.
  6. Press the H+ button (9) to increase the hours of the switch-on time incrementally and the M+ button (10) to increase the minutes of the switch-on time incrementally. Press and hold the H+ button (9) to increase the hour digits and the M+ button to increase the minute digits in quick succession.
  7. Press the D+ button (5) to set the days on which the switching pulse should occur. The day combinations of ‘MO-FR’, ‘MO-SA’, ‘SA-SU’, ‘MO-WE’, ‘TH-SA’, ‘MO WE FR’, ‘TU TH SA’ can be selected. In the loop, press the button until the desired weekday combination is displayed.
  8. Press the  button (4) to cancel the switching time setting or the days of a switching pulse.
  9. Press the  button (4) to set the switch-on time for the next switching pulse. Proceed in the same way as outlined above to set the switch-on time and the days on which the switching pulse should occur (steps 5 – 7).
  10. Press and hold the H+ (9) or M+ (10) buttons for approx. 3 seconds to confirm the set switching pulses (with duration and switch-on time). The ‘P’ symbol disappears from the LC display (8) and the normal time is displayed again. Switching pulse setting is now complete.

Disposal
a) Product

This symbol must appear on any electrical and electronic equipment placed on the EU market. This symbol indicates that this device should not be disposed of as unsorted municipal waste at the end of its service life.
Owners of WEEE (Waste from Electrical and Electronic Equipment) shall dispose of it separately from unsorted municipal waste. Spent batteries and accumulators, which are not enclosed by the WEEE, as well as lamps that can be removed from the WEEE in a non-destructive manner, must be removed by end users from the WEEE in a non-destructive manner before it is handed over to a collection point.

Distributors of electrical and electronic equipment are legally obliged to provide free take-back of waste. Conrad provides the following return options free of charge (more details on our website):

  • in our Conrad offices
  • at the Conrad collection points
  • at the collection points of public waste management authorities or the collection points set up by manufacturers or distributors within the meaning of the ElektroG

End users are responsible for deleting personal data from the WEEE to be disposed of.
It should be noted that different obligations about the return or recycling of WEEE may apply in countries outside of Germany

b) (Rechargeable) batteries
Remove batteries/rechargeable batteries, if any, and dispose of them separately from the product. According to the Battery Directive, end users are legally obliged to return all spent batteries/rechargeable batteries; they must not be disposed of in the normal household waste.

Batteries/rechargeable batteries containing hazardous substances are labelled with this symbol to indicate that disposal in household waste is forbidden. The abbreviations for heavy metals in batteries are Cd = Cadmium, Hg = Mercury, and Pb = Lead (name on (rechargeable) batteries, e.g. below the trash icon on the left).

Used (rechargeable) batteries can be returned to collection points in your municipality, our stores or wherever (rechargeable) batteries are sold. You thus fulfil your statutory obligations and contribute to environmental protection.
Batteries/rechargeable batteries that are disposed of should be protected against short circuits and their exposed terminals should be covered completely with insulating tape before disposal. Even empty batteries/rechargeable batteries can contain residual energy that may cause them to swell, burst, catch fire or explode in the event of a short circuit.
