Description of function The “eco CI7” and “eco CG7” timers are digital single- channel synchronous timers that switch connected loads on and off at defined times. The times are either set by means of a predefined switching programme or in an individually defined switching pro-gramme.
Page 13
On delivery, three profiles – P01, P02 and P03 – are pre- defined on the device, each with different switching times. The times of these profiles can be copied, adjusted and/or amended. All three profiles apply to all seven days of the week. The following profiles are prede- fined:...
Page 15
In addition, you can use the P-- individually program- mable switching programme. Here, you define all the times individually. Each changed or individual time is assigned to the seven days of the week in the form of day blocks or individual days:...

Residual risks WARNING! Danger to life due to electric shock! Improper assembly and installation of the device may result in life-threatening electrical voltages. − Have assembly and connection performed by a qualified electrician only.
Page 21
WARNING! Danger due to insufficient wire cross-sec- tion! If wires with an insufficiently large cross-sec- tion are used, short circuits or fires may occur. − Only use terminals with a cross-section between 0.5 mm² and 2.5 mm² for flex- ible wires.
Installation The “eco CI7” is mounted on the wall. The “eco CG7” is installed on a mounting socket (BS 4662 or BS 5733). In general, the following instructions apply to both models. Where there are differences, the corresponding model number is specified...
Page 23
NOTICE! Danger of material damage to wires in the wall! Selecting the wrong installation position can result in material damage to any wires in the wall. − Make sure that there are no wires in the wall at the installation position. Personnel: •...

The dial is connected to the housing base by blue connection wires. NOTICE! Danger of material damage! When the dial is lifted up, the connection wires may be damaged. − Lift up the dial carefully. − Do not remove the dial from the housing base.
Page 28
For “eco CG7”: Remove the housing cover (Fig. 4/4) and the dial together with the con-nected housing base (Fig. 4/3). For “eco CI7”: Fasten the housing base to the wall. For “eco CG7”: Install the housing base (Fig. 4/2) on the mounting socket (Fig. 4/1).

14. For “eco CG7”: Thread the connection wires into the device through the cable feed-through (Fig. 5/1).
Page 34
15. For mains connection CG7: Insert the connection wires into the corresponding terminals in accord- ance with the relevant wiring diagram (Fig. 7) (N = neutral conductor; L = live conductor) (Fig. 7).
Page 36
16. For voltage-free connection CG7: Insert the connec- tion wires into the corresponding terminals in accordance with the relevant wiring diagram (Fig. 8) (N = neutral conductor; L = live conductor) (Fig. 8).
Page 38
17. For mains connection CI7: Insert the connection wires into the corresponding terminals in accord- ance with the relevant wiring diagram (Fig. 9) (N = neutral conductor; L = live conductor) (Fig. 9).
Page 40
18. For voltage-free connection CI7: Insert the connec- tion wires into the corresponding terminals in accordance with the relevant wiring diagram (Fig. 10) (N = neutral conductor; L = live conductor) (Fig. 10). NOTICE! Tightening torques To avoid damage and faulty contacts, tighten the terminals using a torque of 0.75 Nm.

Fig. 11: Installing the strain relief clamps 20. For “eco CI7”: Screw on the strain relief clamps (Fig. 11/1) using the screws provided (Fig. 11/2).
Page 42
The housing has two flexible union fittings for the cable feed-through, each with three different possible sizes for different diameters of connection wire. For “eco CI7”: Use a cutting tool to cut the flexible union fittings to the correct size for the connection wires.
Page 43
This results in material damage to the wires and faulty contacts. − Make sure that the wires are not pinched when the you close the housing. 22. For “eco CI7”: Screw the housing cover onto the housing base using a Phillips screwdriver.
Page 44
23. For “eco CG7”: Screw the dial (Fig. 4/3) and housing cover (Fig. 4/4) onto the housing base (Fig. 4/2) using a flat-head screwdriver. 24. For “eco CI7”: Replace the plastic cover. 25. For “eco CG7”: Replace the plastic cover (Fig. 4/5).

Disposal ENVIRONMENT! Environmental hazard! Incorrect disposal could result in environ- mental dangers. − Electric scrap and electronic components must be disposed of correctly, i.e. the parts for disposal must be sorted into material groups.
Page 80
− Batteries/rechargeable batteries (Directive 2006/66/EC) and electrical or electronic scrap must under no circumstances be disposed of with general waste. If in doubt, please obtain information about environmentally responsible disposal from specialist disposal companies. − Disposal must be environmentally respon- sible and must employ state-of-the-art environmental protection, recycling and disposal technology.
