Instructions for the West Bend Electronic Timer 40031

The primary use for the West Bend electronic timer 40031 is to monitor the length of time that you cook food. You can set the timer to keep track of the time of day as well. In addition, the timer offers a memory recall feature and a built-in stopwatch feature that counts up instead of down.

2. Press the button labeled "Hour" repeatedly until you reach the correct hour of day. The hour display will allow you to set the time as a.m. or p.m. If you hold the button down, it will cause the number to advance rapidly. This holds true for the "Minute" and "Second" buttons as well.

Set Countdown Timer
