IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY
- Always consult with a qualified electrician before attempting any electrical installation.
- Always isolate the unit from mains electricity supply before carrying out any maintenance.
- Use in the area of the garden pond only if the installation complies with the relevant wiring regulations.
- Power must be supplied through a Residual Current Device (RCD) with a residual operating current not exceeding 30mA.
- This unit must be earthed.
- Never use a fuse larger than 13 amps on the power lead.
- The unit must not be submerged in water.
- Young children should always be supervised near water.
IN THE EVENT OF A POWER FAILURE
Following a power failure, the Switch Box will restart with each line in the
same position as before the power interruption. The Switch Box Timer will
resume as per its programming. However, in order for all of this to occur, the
Switch Box must be run for a minimum of 48 hours with uninterrupted power to
enable the back up capacitor to be fully charged. This function is for short
term power cuts only. Long term power outages will result in all models
needing to be re-programmed.Following a power failure, the Switch Box will

INSTALLATION
(PLEASE SEE SEPARATE SHEET FOR WALL MOUNT INSTRUCTIONS)
WARNING: ALWAYS TURN THE SWITCH BOX POWER OFF AT THE MAINS ELECTRIC BEFORE OPENING THE COVER. ALWAYS SECURE WITH CLOSING SCREW.
OPENING THE COVER
To open the cover insert a small screwdriver (1) or similar implement into the
round opening at the base of the cover.
Use it to push the fastening connection
towards the left until the catch is released (2). Gently lift the cover open
to the maximum angle of 100 degrees (3). DO
NOT force the cover to open further. Once you have connected all your
appliances (see page 8), always secure the lid with the closing screw (the
closing screw is packed together with the 2 blanking plugs).
CONNECTING THE CABLES
WARNING: ALWAYS TURN THE SWITCH BOX POWER OFF AT THE MAINS ELECTRIC BEFORE OPENING THE COVER. ALWAYS SECURE WITH CLOSING SCREW.
It is essential for your safety that you ensure the power of all inputs (including mains) is turned off before proceeding with installation. Do not attempt to install cables without required knowledge and expertise! Use of a qualified electrician is recommended for all installations.
IMPORTANT: Connect the wires to the appropriate pins (Live, Neutral,
Earth). Up to five outgoing connections can be installed into the Switch Box
(4-8).
Power input is supplied into a separate mains channel (9). Use two screws to
secure the cable grip and fix each cable into place inside the Switch Box
(11). Outside the Switch Box, if using the supplied cable gland sealing ring,
ensure the cable gland sealing ring is turned clockwise until the cable is
firmly secured and sealed in the connector (10).
Our NEW PCB terminal blocks are easy click push connectors allowing the user to connect the power in and out cables.
Use a screw driver to push the fastening clip over on the terminal block,
place the cable into the terminal block and release the clip securing the
cable.
Always use ferrule clamps on the cables to ensure a safe connection.
FINISHING CONNECTIONS & BLANKING PLUGS
WARNING: ALWAYS TURN THE SWITCH BOX POWER OFF AT THE MAINS ELECTRIC BEFORE OPENING THE COVER. ALWAYS SECURE WITH CLOSING SCREW.
Once you have connected all of your appliances, always secure the lid with the closing screw. There are two blanking plugs supplied with Matsuko Switch Boxes. These blanking plugs should be used to replace the cable glands if you decide not to wire a device in at any point.

PUMPGUARDTM
What is PumpGuard™ (Switchbox Timer+PG only)
PumpguardTM is patent pending, smart technology that helps to avoid possible
disasters occurring when your pump blocks or overloads.
Line 1 on every Matsuko Switch Box Timer + PG is set to automatically learn
how the new pump behaves when it is first connected and turned on through the
timer.
The PumpGuardTM will run the pump at different power levels for a twenty
minute period until it understands its normal operation. Once the learning
process is over PumpGuardTM goes into monitoring mode. PumpGuardTM will
monitor the pump all day everyday looking out for signs of overloading or
cutting out.
A pump that constantly keeps restarting can easily burn itself out.
PumpGuardTM detects this situation and will run the pump on a lower intensity
programme to see if this will correct the problem. If a solution cannot be
found, PumpGuardTM will disconnect the power and save your pump from damaging
itself further. In this situation PumpGuardTM sounds a stop alarm (the signal
for a pump failure alarm is a fast beeping sound plus a red LED on line one)
and the display shows “pump fail“.
Power Consumption Monitor (Switchbox Timer+PG only)
The digital display on the screen gives two electrical consumption readings.
The Switch Box Timer + PG gives a constant reading on line 1. The second
reading on the screen shows a total consumption of all the lines been used by
all the devices on the switch box through lines 1 – 5. To get a reading for an
individual simply switch off every line you do not want to monitor. The
consumption monitor gives an indicative reading with an accuracy of +/-5%.
L1: Shows power consumption on line 1.
L1–5: Shows total power consumptions of all lines.
