How to wire a timer to delay a telemecanique LC1D4011M7

Which timer do you have?
Do you have on-delay or off-delay timer.... or auto-off timer?
Digital or analog timer?

It depends on exactly which timer you have, and what you are controlling and how you are activating timer, and if you are using OFF-delay or ON-delay.
Something has to switch the timer ON, like a push button, and then the delay period begins.
The wiring diagram appears on side of timer.
Keep in mind that most delay timers are rated for low amperage loads, and can be used to control a contactor that controls heavy-amp motor load.
Copy following links to get started, and then repost with exact specifications of project: model number of timer, voltage, what you are controlling etc.

You have a delay timer?
Is this ON delay or OFF delay, and what model number shows on side of timer.
Copy following links for basics, and then add comment for more help.

Open following link to identify timer:

This is typical 8 pin delay timer relay.
The wiring diagram appears on side of the timer.
Open following link for example how to wire 8-pin timer.

Example shows 24Volt, but 120Volt wires exactly the same.
The timer is 120Volts. So connect power to terminals 2 and 7.
Other terminals are dry, and receive no power when 120V is connected to 2 and 7.
In the example wiring, the objective is to have power connected to Load at all times except when timer activates. So power is connected to terminal 1 and Load wire is connected to terminal 6.
If the objective was to have power connected to Load only when timer turns ON, then connect power to terminal 1 and connect Load wire to terminal 3.

You want 3 minute 'off delay' timer.
When timer is energized with push button or momentary electrical signal, circuit remains ON for set amount of time, and then turns OFF.

Most delay timers have 1 amp capacity rating, so circuit needs fast acting 1 amp fuse, and timer controls separate relay or contactor unless Load is equal to 100 watt light bulb.

Diagram shows that you cut Y wire from thermostat, and connect each end to timer.
End coming from thermostat connects to terminal 3.
End going to contactor connects to terminal 1.

Question is not clear.

You posted about Dayton on-delay timer?
This timer has two contacts, and wires similar to a light switch.
Connect 120V power to terminal 1
Connect wire going to load to terminal 3
Maximum Load is 1 amp so this timer should be wire to a contactor/relay and not directly to Load.

If you have Dayton off-delay timer, open following link for wiring diagram, and to see examples of contactors:

If you have a different timer, then add a comment with clear description of timer or in-focus photo of timer posted on Flickr

Instructions on link below
http://waterheatertimer.org/How-to-wire-Dayton-Off-Delay-Timer.html

Maximum Load wattage on Dayton is 1 amp.
So timer will work with 10 watt load.

Push button is 120Volt.
