Step 2: Enter Clock Setting Mode Press and hold the SET button for 3 seconds. The display will flash the minutes.
Step 3: Set Minutes & Hours
Step 4: Set the Day
Step 5: Exit Setup Press MODE to return to the main display. Your clock is now set.
Skope towel rails generally have three modes displayed on the screen:
To switch modes: Press the Mode button repeatedly until the cursor on the screen points to "AUTO."
Sometimes you need the rail on outside of program hours (e.g., a guest is staying over). Do not delete your programs!
Recommendation: Keep the timer in AUTO 99% of the time. Use OVR for temporary changes.
The Skope heated towel rail timer allows you to set automatic ON/OFF cycles to save energy while ensuring towels are dry and warm when needed.
Common timer types: 24-hour mechanical dial or digital programmable timer.
Identify your model: If you have a rotary dial with pins/segments → Mechanical.
If you have an LCD and buttons → Digital.
