Either the electronics are fubar or the noise making device is no good. Gotta checkout which is ng.

Press and hold the STOP/SET button for two seconds, then release to access the set-up menu. The time/date setting follows the language.

The full details are in the "Changing the Settings" section of the manual (page 10 in my copy). If you need a copy of the manual, you can download one at

On the top of the alarm clock is a CANCEL button. Press the button and the light next to the WAKE MODE indicator on the front of the clock will begin to flash. Press the WAKE MODE button on the top of the clock. The WAKE MODE indicator will go out and the alarm is off. If you want the alarm back on just press the WAKE MODE button again.

GE doesn't make this kind of product any longer but on their site they say to call 1-800-447-1700 for assistance. Maybe someone there can find a copy of the instructions for you.

GE 51587 has same instructions as Tork 601A single-outlet outdoor 24-hour mechanical timer.

Normally the cleaning cycle is preprogramed by the factory, some models have a time setting which you can set, but for most, its preprogramed, there is no adjustment to the time, it will lock, run, and unlock to its programing, hope that helped.
