Rain Off Mode
To stop the automatic watering cycles during winter, turn the dial to the Off position. The word “Off” will appear in the display. This means the automatic programs will not come on, but the programmed information is still retained in the memory. To reactivate the automatic schedule, turn the dial back to the Auto Run position.
NOTE: If a rain sensor has been connected, the stations set to rain sensor control, will be turned OFF automatically, when the sensor is wet.
Water Budgeting
The automatic station run times can be adjusted by percentage as the seasons change. This will save time and money as the run times can be adjusted quickly in spring, winter and autumn to reduce the amount of water used.
Ensure that the dial is in the Auto Run position and then press the back and next buttons simultaneously.
The display will show:
Displayed is the word “Budget” and “100%”.
This represents the current automatic watering run times as being 100%. The percentage budget can be set in 25% increments from 25% up to 150%.
Example: 50% reduces watering by half.
To adjust in 25% increments, use 
or 
buttons.
To return to the clock press the back and next buttons simultaneously. The display will show the word Budget to indicate that the water budgeting feature is in use.
