Setup
1. Initial Battery Charge
Before programming, plug the timer into a live wall outlet for at least 30 minutes to fully charge its internal battery. This allows for programming the timer even when it's unplugged.
2. Resetting the Timer
To clear any previous settings, use a small pointed object (like a pen tip) to press the Reset button located between the ON/OFF and Repeat buttons. The display will show 00:00 for both Delay Start and Run Time.
3. Programming the Timer
Follow these steps to set your desired ON/OFF schedule:
- Turn Timer ON: Press the ON/OFF button. The display will show "TIMER ON" in the upper left corner.
- Set Delay Start Time: Press and hold the DELAY START button to quickly advance the time in hours and minutes. Lightly touch and release the button to adjust in 1-minute intervals. This sets the duration from the current moment until the timer turns ON. For example, if it's 1:00 PM and you want the device to turn ON at 6:00 PM, set the DELAY START for 5:00 (5 hours).
- Set Run Time: Press and hold the RUN TIME button to quickly advance the time in hours and minutes. Lightly touch and release the button to adjust in 1-minute intervals. This sets how long the device will remain ON after the Delay Start period ends. For example, if you want the device to turn OFF at 10:30 PM (after turning ON at 6:00 PM), set the RUN TIME for 4:30 (4 hours and 30 minutes).
- Enable Repeat Function: Press the REPEAT button so that "REPEAT ON" appears on the display. This ensures your programmed schedule repeats daily.

Operating Instructions
Manual ON/OFF Override
You can manually turn the connected device ON or OFF at any time, bypassing the programmed schedule temporarily. Press the ON/OFF button once to toggle the power state. When manually overridden, the display will show "TIMER OFF" in the upper left, but the internal countdown for your programmed schedule will continue. Press the ON/OFF button again to return the timer to its programmed mode ("TIMER ON").
Understanding the Display
The LCD display shows two main time values: DELAY START and RUN TIME. Once the timer is activated, the DELAY START time will count down until the device turns ON. After the device turns ON, the RUN TIME will begin counting down until the device turns OFF. If "REPEAT ON" is selected, this cycle will occur daily.

- Cleaning: To clean the timer, unplug it from the wall outlet. Wipe the exterior with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use liquid cleaners or abrasive materials.
- Storage: When not in use, store the timer in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
