Diagram A

Operation

• Decide what times you would like the time switch to switch ON and OFF.
• Insert a pin in the Inner Circle for an ON period.
• Insert a pin in the Outer Circle for an OFF period.

Important:
The pins should be pushed fully home or they will catch on the underside of the protective lobes on the bottom of the front socket face (See diagram “A”).

• The minimum switching interval is 30 minutes, and this can be increased in 15 minute steps.
• Set the correct time of day by rotating the dial clockwise, until the correct time is indicated by the Time indicator located on the left centre of the time switch (See diagram “A”).
• Plug the time controller into a socket and switch the socket ON if necessary.
• Plug your appliance into the time controller and switch the appliance ON.

Manual Override

• It is possible to manually override the programmed time by operating the override switch located in the bottom left-hand corner of the plug-in timer.
• 1 = ON. O = OFF.
• If you use the manual override it will self-cancel at the next programmed time.
• The override switch cannot be used within 15 minutes on either side of a switching time.

Points to note

• Each time the time controller has carried out an automatic switching operation the manual switch cannot be operated for about 15 minutes before, and after, automatic switching because it will be mechanically locked for this period.
• If required you can programme your time controller to switch OFF only by inserting just a single pin. For many electrical appliances you can, therefore, program for OFF only to ensure that if you forget to switch the appliance off nothing can be damaged or unnecessary power used. When using this technique switch on by hand using the self-cancelling override switch.
• The Programme ring can be turned even when the time controller is operating. In case of a power failure, please re-adjust the time controller to the correct time of day, turning the dial in a clockwise direction.
