Does it have a manual override function?

Troubleshooting

Unit does not power on.

Verify that the power supply to the circuit is switched on at the consumer unit. Check all wiring connections are secure and correct. Ensure the fuse within the unit is correctly seated and intact.

Confirm that the correct day and time are set on the unit. Ensure the schedule is activated and not in a manual override 'off' state. Double-check the program settings for any errors.

Display is blank or flickering.

Check the power supply and wiring connections. If the issue persists, the unit may be faulty and require replacement.
