Troubleshooting
Problem
The lights do not
turn on at dusk.
The lights do not
turn on, even when
the timer is in the
ON position.
The lights on the
timer are flashing
(turning on and off).
Instructions:
1. Lift the protective cover to access timer dial.
2. To set the current time: rotate the dial clockwise until the time lines up with the TIME NOW
arrow.
3. To program the timer: begin with all segment pins pulled up. Push the segment pins down
for the periods of time you want the timer to be ON. Each segment pin represents 30
minutes: 2 segment pins = 1 hour. Repeats daily.
4. To connect the timer: slide the switch down to
the timer and turn the device on. Plug timer into wall outlet.
5. To override the timer: slide the switch down to set timing periods. When in the l position, it
means OUTLET ON, the plugged-in device is switched on permanently.
6. In case of power failure: reset the timer as explained in step 2.
7. To mount timer to vertical surface (wall), attach using mounting hole located on the back of
timer.
Possible Cause
The timer is not in a good
area for the light sensor
to function as there is too
much ambient light to
detect darkness.
The lights are not in the
ON position, the lights
are not functioning, or
the timer is not receiving
power.
The timer is in Dusk-
to-Dawn mode and the
light from the plugged-in
lights is affecting the light
sensor.
Corrective Action
Move the timer to another location
where there is no ambient light.
Ensure that lights are functional by
plugging them directly into the outlet.
Ensure that lights are in the ON position
if they have their own switch. Ensure
that the timer is receiving power - the
LED should light up when plugged into
an outlet and put in the ON position.
Move the lights away from the timer,
or reposition the timer so that it does
not face the lights.
