to the number of hours of the programmed watering frequency (interval).
FOR EXAMPLE: At 1:00 PM the frequency dial is programmed for “6” to water
every six hours. The first watering cycle will start at 7:00 p.m. or six hours after the
timer is programmed. Refer to Manual Watering for immediate operation.
