B. Copy (load)/Save (save): the key makes it possible to save a program contained in the time switch.It is also pos­sible to copy the contents of the key into the clock (pro­gram + astro settings).
1. Insert the key and wait for 2 sec.
2. Using menu, select the mode:
save (to save a program contained in the time switcher), load (to load the program of the key into the time switch),
(
