GAS STOVE TIMER

KIT 1 – GAS STOVE & GAS COOKTOP TIMER

The kit enables you to use your gas cooktop and gas stove for the desired set time. The timer duration can be set by the electrician to any specified time range between 10 to 240 minutes. The most common time set is 20 minutes. The switch will be labeled with the pre-set time duration and located within 1000mm of the appliance.

Stove turn-off products can increase cooking safety for those with dementia who still have good stove skills and judgment but occasionally tend to forget. The set comes with a timer and an automatic stove shut-off system.

To use the cooktop or stove with a timer:

1. Press the switch (timer indicator light will illuminate)

2. Turn the gas stove knob to the on position

The appliance will turn off automatically after the set time. To re-use the stove or cooktop, turn the knob back to the off position and repeat the above steps.

Optional: An optional key-operated bypass switch can be installed to override the timer to allow for the stove to be used for a longer period.

Is the timer hidden and out of view?

Plumbing components are hidden from view in the cupboard. Timer switch and key switch are visible and located within 1m from the appliance.

If the flame is not working, will the gas automatically turn off or stay on for the designated time?

The gas will stay on for the set duration.

Is there a light indicator on the timer that turns on for the duration?

There is an LED light on the timer switch that illuminates when the timer is activated and stays on for the duration.

How does the bypass switch work?

The bypass key switch is an available add-on that enables the override of timer settings, allowing the cooktop to be used in its standard mode.

The switch positions will be clearly marked as “timer” and “bypass.” When the key is turned to the timer position and subsequently removed, it ensures that the timer is consistently functioning and active.

Conversely, when the key is inserted and turned to the bypass position, the cooktop can be used as a regular cooktop without any timer restrictions.

The key cannot be removed while in the bypass position, ensuring that users remember to switch it back to the timer position once they are done using the cooktop in its standard mode.

What is a gas isolation key switch?

The gas isolation key switch can be installed as a standalone unit (kit-4) or added to the stove timer (kit-5). It allows you to control the gas supply to the appliance.

The switch is clearly labelled with “ON” and “OFF” positions. When the key is turned to the OFF position and removed, it ensures that there is no gas supply to the appliance.

Conversely, when the key is inserted and turned to the ON position, the gas supply is restored, allowing the cooktop to be used.

What if we want to cook for long periods?

You have the choice to install an additional bypass key switch, allowing you to override the stove timer settings if needed.

Can you install both add ons: timer bypass key switch and gas isolation key switch along with a stove timer?

Yes, you have the option to install both safety add-ons: the timer bypass key switch and the gas isolation key switch together with a stove timer.

Does this work for an induction oven?

Kit 1 is not compatible with induction ovens; you’ll require Kit 2 for that purpose.

Does it work for the stove top and the oven or just the stove?

The stove timers only work for the stove, not the oven. However, If it’s a freestanding combination unit and stove it controls the whole thing.
