ALL OPERATIONAL DIFFICULTIES

If this timer does not function properly, for any
reason, please replace the battery with a new,
high-quality battery (see “Battery Replacement”
section). Low battery power can occasionally
cause any number of “apparent” operational
difficulties. Replacing the battery with a new,
fresh battery will solve most difficulties.

BATTERY REPLACEMENT

A faint display, incorrect display, erratic display, or
no display are all indicators that the battery must
be replaced. Remove the battery cover by sliding
it off in the direction of the arrow. Remove the
exhausted battery and replace it with a new AAA
Alkaline battery. For proper battery placement,
see drawing located inside the battery compart­ment. Replace the battery cover.
