Included and separately supplied items
The listing is for the exact control assembly shown, with its switch housing, timer control and indicator. The cover installation uses the provided retaining pin. Electrical wiring and the controlled appliance are not included. Supply properly sized copper conductors and mounting provisions suitable for the installation. Optional towers or additional controls are separate purchases.
Required installation and compatibility
Electrical setup must be performed by a licensed electrician. Disconnect electrical power and any applicable gas supply before work, and allow the appliance to cool. Locate the control at least six feet from the appliance. It may be recessed into a wall or surface mounted on a stable wall, following the model's instructions and local requirements. Use the supplied brackets where needed and ensure the installation provides sufficient voltage.
Use copper conductors only, without tinning, and secure all connections without stray strands. Select the exact wiring diagram for this model in manual C2-760. When installed with other controls, this timer or combined timer/emergency-stop control must be last in the series. Do not assume compatibility from an appliance name alone: the electrician must confirm device type and load rating. Follow applicable local codes and the National Electrical Code or Canadian Electrical Code as directed by the manufacturer.
Using the timer
Turn the knob clockwise past ten minutes to activate the timer, then set the desired duration. The LED illuminates while power is on. To stop early, turn to OFF until an audible click; the LED goes out when time has elapsed and power is off. The manufacturer recommends testing at least monthly or more often as needed. If power does not shut off at OFF, have an electrician replace the timer.
Warranty and documentation
The included commercial/multi-user warranty lists five years for stainless-steel housings and three years for other components except batteries. It excludes restaurants and other professional cooking settings. Coverage requires proof of purchase and compliant installation and maintenance; electrical damage and unauthorized modifications are excluded. Consult the complete warranty and installation document for the applicable terms. The operating instructions and dimensions here follow the January 2026 C2-760 revision.
