3. Veiligheidsinformatie

This BN-LINK heavy-duty grounded timer is ETL approved, ensuring it meets recognized safety standards. It is rated for 125VAC, 60Hz, with a maximum load of 1875W, 15A Resistive, 8A Tungsten, and 1/2 HP, TV-5. Always ensure that the total wattage of connected devices does not exceed the timer's maximum load capacity to prevent overheating and potential hazards. Use only with grounded outlets.

4. Instellen

1. Pincode resetten: Before setting up, ensure all the black push pins around the dial are in the UP position. This sets the timer to an 'OFF' state for all intervals initially.
2. Stel huidige tijd in: Rotate the entire black dial clockwise until the arrow on the timer aligns with the current time. The dial is marked with AM/PM hours.
3. Aan/uit-tijden van het programma: Push down the black pins corresponding to the desired ON periods. Each pin represents 15 minutes. For example, to turn a device ON from 6 PM to 10 PM, push down all pins between the 6 PM and 10 PM marks. Pins in the UP position indicate OFF periods.
4. Selecteer bedrijfsmodus: Use the red slide switch on the side of the timer. Slide it to the 'TIMER' position (indicated by a clock icon) for automatic scheduled operation. If you wish to bypass the timer and keep the connected device continuously ON, slide the switch to the 'ON' position.
5. Aansluiten: Plug the timer into a standard 3-prong wall outlet. Then, plug your device into the timer's grounded outlet.

5. Gebruiksaanwijzing

Once the timer is plugged in and the current time is set, the dial will continuously rotate clockwise. When the rotating dial reaches a segment where pins are pushed DOWN (ON position), the connected device will receive power. When it reaches a segment where pins are UP (OFF position), power to the device will be cut off. The red indicator light on the timer will illuminate when power is being supplied to the connected device.

6. Onderhoud

To ensure optimal performance and longevity of your BN-LINK Mechanical Timer, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:

• Schoonmaak: Disconnect the timer from the power outlet before cleaning. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the exterior. Do not use liquid cleaners or abrasive materials.
• Opslag: Bewaar de timer, wanneer deze gedurende langere tijd niet wordt gebruikt, op een koele, droge plaats, uit de buurt van direct zonlicht en extreme temperaturen.
• Inspectie: Periodically inspect the timer and its plug for any signs of damage, such as frayed wires or cracked casing. Indien schade wordt geconstateerd, dient u het gebruik onmiddellijk te staken en het apparaat te vervangen.

7. Probleemoplossing

If your BN-LINK Mechanical Timer is not functioning as expected, consider the following:

• Device Not Turning ON/OFF:
  • Zorg ervoor dat de timer stevig is aangesloten op een werkend stopcontact.
  • Verify that the connected appliance is properly plugged into the timer and is functional.
  • Check the red slide switch on the side of the timer. It must be in the 'TIMER' position for scheduled operation. If it's in 'ON', the device will be continuously powered.
  • Confirm that the black push pins are correctly set for the desired ON/OFF periods. Pins pushed DOWN correspond to ON times.
  • Ensure the current time on the dial is accurately aligned with the arrow.
• Timer Not Advancing: Ensure the timer is plugged into a live outlet. The internal clock mechanism requires power to operate.
• Oververhitting: If the timer feels hot, immediately unplug it and the connected device. Ensure the total wattage of connected devices does not exceed the timer's maximum load capacity (1875W).
