Setup Instructions

Follow these steps to set up your G-Homa Mechanical Timer Outlet:

  1. Set Current Time: Rotate the timer dial clockwise until the "TIME NOW" arrow aligns with the current time of day. The dial is marked with AM and PM hours.
  2. Program ON/OFF Times: The outer ring of the dial consists of small segments (pins). Each segment represents 30 minutes.
    • To set a period for the device to be ON, push the corresponding pins DOWN towards the center of the dial.
    • To set a period for the device to be OFF, leave the corresponding pins in the UP position (away from the center).
  3. Set Manual Override Switch: Locate the switch on the side of the timer.
    • For automatic timed operation, slide the switch to the "TIMER ON" position.
    • To keep the connected device continuously ON, slide the switch to the "OUTLET ON" position.
  4. Plug In: Insert the timer into a standard 3-prong grounded wall outlet. Then, plug your appliance(s) into the dual outlets on the timer.

Operating the Timer

Once set up, the G-Homa timer will automatically cycle your connected appliances according to your programmed schedule. The timer operates on a daily cycle, repeating the same ON/OFF pattern every 24 hours.

  • The timer's internal mechanism will continuously rotate the dial. When the "TIME NOW" arrow reaches a segment that is pushed down, the connected appliance will turn ON. When it reaches a segment that is up, the appliance will turn OFF.
  • The dual outlets allow you to control two separate devices with the same schedule.
  • This timer is suitable for various indoor applications, including lamps, seasonal lighting, small appliances, and holiday decorations.

The G-Homa Mechanical Timer Outlet requires minimal maintenance to ensure long-lasting performance:
