Operation

Once programmed the timer can be set using the triangular button with the picture of a finger,

    shown the timer socket is currently on.

    (On the LCD display 'Auto' with 'on' or 'off' means that the timer will switch on and off
    according to the settings you've made; when it shows 'auto on' it just means that the
    timer output is currently switched on, and when it shows 'auto off' the timer output is
    currently switched off.
