This function regularly turns on and off the connected appliance within a user-limited daily period. The ON cycle time and OFF cycle time are both adjustable. Use the ON/OFF icons on the dial to set the time during which the cyclical timer should be active. The shortest time is 10 minutes, and the longest is 24 hours. Set when the cyclical timer function should be active on the circular dial, and then set the time for which the socket should be in the ON cycle. Do the same for the OFF cycle. If you set the ON cycle time to 5 minutes and the OFF cycle time to 10 minutes, the socket will be on for 5 minutes and off for 10 minutes. This will happen continuously until it is terminated by the user-set operating time.
