DWA-S Sonachron is preset to change for Daylight Saving Time. The program timer must have the Dip Switch for Daylight Saving Time is set to the ON position. The DWA-S Sonachron Program Timer had an update due to changes to Daylight Saving Time in 2005.

To set the dip switch in the ON position, remove the Left Panel Cover from the bell ringer.

  1. Take out the two screws on the cover.
  2. Firmly grip and pull the left panel out from the case.

This will expose the battery, serial number label and the front circuit board's left end, where the dip switches are located.

 

 

Review the Dip Switch Setting for Daylight Saving Time to make sure it is in the On Position, for locations that recognize Daylight Saving Time.

For locations, such as Arizona (USA) and Saskatchewan (Canada), the dip switch should be in the Off Position.
