Instruction

  • Use Instructions: Setting the time of day: The arrow on the face of the timer indicates the time of day. To set the time, rotate the dial until the arrow is pointing at the correct time. Take care to set the correct time, noting AM (white portion of dial) or PM (black portion of dial).Program the timer: To program the “Lights On” settings; push the black tabs down adjacent to the times that you would like the lights to be on. Each tab represents 15 minutes. (Example: If you want the lamps to turn on at 8 AM and turn off at 6 PM, push all of the black tabs down between 8 AM and 6 PM. This will provide a 10 hour daytime photoperiod for your reptile.)Set the red bypass switch to timer: To enable the timer function, be sure to slide the red switch on the side of the timer down to the “timer” setting. To bypass the timer and manually turn on the lights, slide the switch up to the “on” setting. Push it back down to the timer setting to resume normal timer function. Plug the timer into a grounded outlet: This timer will only operate when plugged in. In the event of a power outage, the time of day will need to be reset. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this timer has a three-prong plug and must be plugged into a grounded three-prong receptacle. If using near water, thereceptacle must also be GFCI protected. If you are unsure about the electrical supply and connection, contact a qualified licensed electrician. Drip loop: If using this with aquatic habitats (like Turtle Tanks), this timer must be used near a grounded receptacle with a “drip loop”. The drip loop will prevent water from running along the power cord and getting the timer outlet or wall receptacle wet. To create a drip loop, be sure that a portion of the power cord is lower than the level of the wall receptacle. If for any reason the plug or wall receptacle gets wet, do not grasp or unplug the power cord until after the power has been switched off at the main fuse or circuit breaker.
