Some one mentined that you can't turn it off once it's started. Is it possible to reverse-turn the dial if you change your mind?

Yes. You can override the timer and turn it off. I have four of these in my house, and you can turn it back off if you change your mind. I wouldn't make it a habit, however.

Wrong. It has a slip clutch so you can crank it back to zero and shut it off.

Thanks to your question, I just discovered that it could. Set it at zero & push start/stop. It's a good timer. Hope this helps. - Guy

Yep...just unscrew the dial. A dime also works well. As I recall it uses a standard CR2032 I think.

You can. It turns off when you plug it in but you can turn it back on immediately. The only thing I don't like about this radio is how easily the knob pops off. I recommend gluing it on as soon as you open the box.

It has a dial that can be turned to the "off" position. However, just in case kids are coming over, we always unplug ours. As a reminder, when unplugging any electrical appliance, make sure and pull the plug out and not pull on the cord. Hope this helps.

You just twist the dial so it's not on the "0" position. They may have sent you a bad battery ?

Yes , kind of ! When the reostat is turned all the way counterclockwise it will not come on . I hope this helps .

No there is no way to turn it off. However, I have had mine for about 6 months and the batteries are still going strong.

Yeah where ever you leave the selector is what will come on and off when you push the button. So you can select whatever mode you want by spinning the "dial". Then turn it on and off in that mode.

Turn the dial all the way counter-clock ways. This will turn whatever you have connected off.

I don't know. I just turn it on and turn it off. There are many options for timing. The directions that came with it are very complete and detailed. There is a clock for timing. I wasn't interested in those options so didn't read carefully.

Yes, I'm pretty sure you can, though I've never actually done that. I always do off-on-off-on or rotating on between circuits. The instructions are a little hard to follow, so it's sort of trial and error, but the timer goes down to about a tenth of a second if your fingers are quick enough. Nice little controller.

In a word, no. It's basically a one-time use dial. Turn it to the amount of time you need and the dial moves down to zero and shuts off.

Via the dial. The dial turned counter clockwise (as far as it will go) is "off" but the iron will still be lit as Mary B mentioned & will turn off automatically.

There is a little booklet that comes with the BC 1009 and I don't recall instructions on how to turn the unit off. You would think there would be a button to do that job but like my digital watch the only way you can turn it off is to remove the battery. Wish I had a better answer. Sorry.

You cannot flip the switch manually but you can use the on or off button when you want. Turning it on or off yourself will not mess up the time it is programmed to go on or off.

No you can't! It can be set to time start@end with a maual on off switch it can't be set by day. Hope this helps.
