I am at time 9:58pm, and I program it to be on at 10:00pm and off at 10:02pm. But as soon as I finish programming and set mode to AUTO, it starts to be ON already, which is NOT yet within the time frame I set. Is it supposed to work that way?Or mine is a defective one? On the other hand, if I am at time 9:58pm, and set off time to 9:56pm, as soon as I set mode to AUTO, it turns off immediately. So I am not sure if 1) the timer makes CONSTANT comparison of current time with all programmed times to make decision, or 2) it ONLY does so on the programmed time points. My experiments above cannot draw conclusion to either 1) or 2).

With this particular timer, press MODE and PRG button to clear timer programming.
When programming is complete, press CLK button to enter current time setting and end programming.
Then press Mode button until Auto indicator displays.
Make sure current time is correct, and that correct am-pm selected.
Make sure that on-and-off programs are set for same days-of-week, or conflict will cause timer to work erratically.
If timer is defect, buy another timer at Lowes and return defect in new package.

Zilla, Utilitec, GE strip timers use basically the same format for programming.
For each ON time, there has to be a corresponding OFF time, and days for On and Off times cannot conflict.
Best guess: you have a conflict or incomplete on-off program.
With Zilla timer, there is added level of complexity since the ON-OFFs are set for different day and night outlets.
Add a comment with the exact timer model number so expert can read the manual alongside you.
