Make sure the lamps/appliances are working, by plugging them
into the wall outlet and turning them on.

The cover protects the timer ‘face’ from dirt and dust, and it
‘hides’ the operating controls when not in use. You will need
to open the cover when programming the time and settings,
and then you can close the cover after programming has been
completed.

These pegs can be pushed up (away from the middle area) or
pushed down towards the middle area). Make sure that all of the
pegs are pushed DOWN.
