TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE:

Lights do not turn on, even when timer is in “Always On” position.

• Lights are not in “ON” position, lights are not functioning, or timer is not receiving power.
• Be sure that lights are functional by plugging them directly into the outlet.  Be sure that lights are in “ON position if they have their own switch. Be sure that the outlet that the timer is plugged into is active.

Lights do not turn ON and OFF at the requested time.

• Replace the batteries in the timer, and/or reset the timer by inserting a sharp object such as a paper clip into the reset hole.

3. Reinstall Front Cover using 2 Cover Screws. Set Wall Transmitter aside.

4. Plug your light/appliance into the outlet on the Receiver being careful to match the wide blade of the light/appliance (if equipped) with the wide slot on the outlet.

5. Plug the Receiver into any standard grounded 110/120 Volt outlet being careful to match the wide blade of the Receiver with the wide slot on the outlet. Fully insert.

6. Before mounting the Wall Transmitter, hold the Wall Transmitter at the location where you wish to install. Press Toggle Switch to determine if your light/appliance turns on and off. If your light/appliance does not respond try relocating the Transmitter or Receiver. Large metal objects such as metal doors or cabinets should not be in the way of the Wall Transmitter and Plug-in Receiver since this could decrease the range of the RF signal.

7. Once you have successfully completed this test, remove Front Cover once again and mount Wall Transmitter with two enclosed Mounting Screws. (Surfaces other than wood may require different type of mounting hardware.)

8. Replace Front Cover of Wall Transmitter and secure to wall switch with white Cover Screws (do not over-tighten).

OPERATION:

Simply press the Toggle Switch to turn the light/appliance you’ve plugged into the Receiver on or off. Note: Wait at least 3 seconds after you press the transmitter on or off before you press it again. This Allows for the RF signal transmission to be Completed.
