Key Point: When entering the Start and Stop times in this procedure, you must enter
‘00’ in the seconds field rather than leave it blank, otherwise an error message is
displayed.
Key Point: If you enter a Start time later than the Stop time you will see an error
message until the stop time has been set to be later. This does not however affect the
operation of the equipment once the correct times have been set.
