Countdown Mode
Countdown Mode lets you set up a delayed ON or
OFF switching. It’s a bit like a kitchen timer, except
instead of an alarm ringing when the clock reaches
zero, the timer switches power ON or OFF.
(i) Before setting the Countdown time choose
whether you want to turn power ON or OFF
after the time has elapsed:
• Delayed switch OFF: use the UP button to
switch the timer to ON or AUTO ON for a
delayed switch OFF
• Delayed switch ON: use the UP button to
switch the timer to OFF or AUTO OFF for a
delayed switch ON
(ii) Press MENU twice to scroll to Countdown Mode.
The letters CTD will show on the display above the
The Random Feature will delay the preset ON and
OFF times of your set programs by between 4 and
32 minutes. This means you can set one program
to repeat every day but the switching pattern will
vary a little from day to day. This feature is ideal
to use with lamps when you go on holidays as the
switching pattern is not predictable.
To turn on the Random Feature, in Clock Mode,
