are removed or the circuit breaker turned off.
4.2 Remove the 2 fixing screws holding the front panel to the back box.

entry point(s) on the back box.
4.6 Fix the back box to the wall using the correct mounting screws for the
rawl plugs installed.
4.7 Use the cable clamp in the back box to secure the cables.
4.8 Terminate the cables into the terminal block ensuring correct polarity
is observed and that all bare conductors are sleeved (See section 5.
Connection Diagram).
4.9 Select and set your preferred program and time setting using the
adjusters located on the reverse of the front panel (See section 6.
Commissioning).
