TIMER
You must set the time prior to programming the
Timer. To do this; turn the outer dial of the timer
in a clockwise direction until the time of the day
(24-hour clock) corresponds with the triangular
marking. Example if it is 2pm (1400 hours) then
set the triangular mark in line with 14. One
complete turn of the dial corresponds to 24 hours.
There are 96 “riders”, positioned around the dial,
each rider represents 15 minutes.
Where all the “riders” are pushed to the outside of
the timer the heater will be ON continuously.
To set a specific time for example:
If you want the heater to be on from 6pm to
10pm, then set all the riders from 18 to 22 (1800
hours to 2200 hours) to the outside of the rim and
all other riders to the inside of the timer. The unit
will then turn on automatically at 6pm and off
again at 10pm.
