Setting the time of day
To set the time of day, rotate the timer dial clockwise (indicated by the
arrow) until the correct time of day is opposite the reference mark

To set the timer :
1. Using your finger tip or the tip of a pencil, push in as many segments
as necessary around the dial, according to the times you don't require
heat – see Fig. 7. Each segment pushed in switches the heater OFF for
that part of the hour. All other segments will be ON. For example, Fig. 9
shows the timer set to switch the heater ON between 9.00am and 4.00pm
and between 9.30pm and 7.00am.
2. You can select as many ON periods as you like, within the 24-hour
day. The settings will repeat every day until changed.

you wish to cancel and pull out new 'ON' segments as required.

Note - Timer Memory Back Up Batteries - Once the heater has been
left plugged in with the socket switched on for at least 72 hours the
timer's memory back up batteries will be fully charged.
Once the timer batteries are fully charged, if there is a power cut or
if the heater is disconnected from the mains for less than six months,
then the timer will continue to keep time & the settings in the memory
will remain intact.
If however the timer back up batteries have not been charged fully, or
if the heater is deprived of power for longer than six months, then the
time and the programme settings are likely to be lost and you may
therefore need to reset the time and the programme before using the
AUTO MODE again.
