Is there a way to turn the timer off? I pulled out the plastic stopper &amp; the timer has been on for 3 days. I'm worried about running it down.

Pressing the start/stop button stops the timer from running, but the numbers still appear. Other than popping out the battery, I don't know how to turn that part off. I leave mine on, to that extent, and haven't yet had to replace the battery - it doesn't seem to go through them very fast.

Hi Bo, I have used one of these WH21 for the last 25 years. This version of timer is only for controlling on and off in a 24 hour period. It will not help you with the issue that you described. Thanks,Ed

Yes, it will turn itself down, then off. It will even remove itself and move itself into the fridge after 12 hours. NOT!!!That's a SWITCH, on the front, not a TIMER.

If you want it off at specific times you can attach it to a cheap timer you can get in any harddware store for a few bucks. The reason you can do that with this unit is that i has an automatic power interruption/restoration restart feature. External timers are equivalent to power failure, and most brands stay off after interrupted power comes back - not this one. The timer built in selects short intervals for round clock on-off, which is not what you want.

Hit the button a few times, it is on a timer. I have this one at my lake house with no issues. Perhaps contact seller.

It has a timer. It'll only run for that set amount of time then it'll turn off. That's normal.

I have had the same problem with the timers going out I replaced mine with a timer that I purchased at Menards or Walmart or your local hardware store, just make sure the are the same size approx.

I'm not an expert with this, but I find that timer settings are important. What I mean is that if a cycle was stopped and not reset that could have an effect. Everything has to be in place within the appliance for it to work properly. It's following the instructions and if that doesn't work, call the company. Good luck. I'm enjoying mine.

You need a separate timer. I had the same question when I bought mine. Just so you know, mine stopped after being installed in May of this year. The Hayward Company sent a man to repair it right away under warrantee. Amazing service

I agree with both previous answers - the timer is really loud. I can't find my instruction booklet, but the box it came in said automatic shut-off. I just checked the Cuisinart website and it says automatic shut-off after four hours.

There are 3 settings - high, low and off. It will automatically turn off if it runs out of water. However, there is no timer as such. Thanks.

You can add a timer at your wall socket. I don't use one though. I adjust my heat so I don't overdo the food.

While the timer is active, there is no way to disable the lights. When the timer is not counting down (or up), the lights are not illuminated. I think I read a review once on here from someone who took it apart and disabled the lights somehow. You may investigate that further.

Nope , our timer was perfect! I was hesitant at ordering as well - it has held up through drops and throws and so on and so forth . Hope this products works well for you too !

Yes connie is right it has auto shut off i havent timed it but im sure its less than 3 because it seems like when i am using it im always in a hurry. Would be nice if there was auto shutoff. Control to be able to adjust the legnth of automatic off timer.

I am a novice (been doing this 3 days), but I purposely chose a model with a timer to shut off. It has already been most valuable. I was dehydrating a pasta sauce, and saw recommendations to check it after about 10 hrs and turn it over when it is solid enough. At 10 hrs it was not ready, but was a couple hrs later, when I was ready to go to bed. So I turned it over, set the timer for a few hours, went to bed and my dehydrated sauce was ready to package this morning.
