The battery voltage is continuously
monitored. If a low voltage is detected,
the low battery indicator will be displayed
(Fig. 15).
The timer requires two LR44 batteries to
keep time up to three months without
power.
Replace the batteries as soon as possible after the low battery
indicator appears.
Change the batteries within one minute of unplugging in order to
keep the time and date settings. Afterwards, if the display is wrong
or flashes “12:00 AM”, reset the time and date. All other settings
(your ON and OFF programming) remain in memory indefinitely
without battery or AC power.
While the batteries are removed, the timer will turn off the display
to conserve power.
Dispose of the used batteries promptly according to local
regulations. Keep batteries away from children.
