We used to have a similar one of those timers at work - I didn't like it. Too complicated and a pain to reset. Much happier with the ancient dial thermostat that I just turn up and down in passing.All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

We have a programmable timer and I have a DH who knows how to use it, he does try to show me on a regular basis what to do with which button.0
