Programming
Simply turn the single-control knob to one of the 15 preset watering programs
and the timer will start the cycle within 10 seconds; therefore it is necessary to
set the timer at the exact time you want it to start watering. When a program
is chosen, there will be two clicks: the first click is for battery level check
and the second click opens the valve to begin watering.

time for the watering cycle to start.
