Timer Maintenance
Your
SunQuest
sun canopy is equipped with a backup shut-off timer which will
automatically turn off the sun canopy in the unlikely event of a malfunction of the
primary timer. This important safety feature also prevents the user from re-setting
the timer before the end of the pre-set maximum time interval. The electronic timer
limiting circuit is automatically reset each time the primary timer is turned to the
OFF position.
Annually, or whenever your sun canopy is re-lamped, check the operation and
accuracy of the timer system as follows. DO NOT perform these tests while a person
is using the sun canopy.
Step 1.
Obtain an accurate watch capable of measuring in seconds.
Set the timer to its maximum interval. Using the watch, time
how long the lamps remain on. The lamps should shut off
within plus or minus 10% of the maximum timer interval.
Step 2.
Set the timer to the maximum time interval. Wait ten minutes,
then turn the knob back to the maximum time position. The
electronic time limiting circuit should turn the lamps off at an
elapsed time equal to approximately 10% beyond the
maximum timer interval, even though the primary timer
continues to show time left.
Call ETS Customer Service if your timer does not operate properly, or if you
experienced difficulty with these tests.
