operate during the program watering cycle.

OFF AND RAIN DELAY
Use this feature to turn off controller operation for indefinite periods of time
(Off mode) or for a selected number of days (Rain Delay mode).
Turning Off the Controller
Turning the function dial to the Off
position places the controller in
the Off mode. After a 2-second delay, any current watering activity will
shut off and all subsequent watering program activity will be suspended. As
long as the function dial is in the Off
position, the controller will
remain in the Off mode. The controller clock continues to update current
time and date, and all watering program information is retained while in
the Off mode. Normal controller operation is resumed by simply placing
the function dial in any other position.
Using the Rain Delay Mode
The Rain Delay mode enables automatic watering to be delayed from 1 to
7 days. At the end of the selected delay period, the controller resumes
automatic operation. (
