Note:
Time elapsed since the heater has been switched on only
shows when the heater is switched on.
• The timer will not switch the heater on if
the temperature where the timer is located is above
5 °C. If the temperature rises to above 7 °C when
the heater is on, the timer will switch the heater off.
• The heater will stay on 30 minutes past the set
departure time. Example: It is −10 °C and the timer
switches the heater on 120 min before the set
departure time (see above). During these two hours,
the temperature drops to −15 °C, the timer does not
react to the change in temperature but operates in
accordance with the initial temperature detection of −10 °C.
• It takes about 45 minutes for the timer to adapt to
a new temperature such as when it is taken out into
the cold from a warm indoor environment.
• Always make sure to insert the timer into the wall
socket so it is orientated as shown in the picture.

Care and maintenance

• Clean the timer by wiping it with a dry cloth.
• The timer should be unplugged from the wall socket if it is not to be used for
