- ניצן די arrow right button to select Program A, B, or C.
- ניצן + or - to set the desired start time for the first cycle.
- דרוק arrow right to move to the next start time (up to 4 per program). Set or leave blank if not needed.
- דרוק PRG צו ראַטעווען.
- Set Station Run Times:
- דרוק PRG until 'RUN TIME' appears.
