Do not go to Utilitech.com; it's a different company. It's actually at place called TheNCC and is in tiny, tiny print at the bottom of the instructions.
Instead, go to:
http://thencc.com/ncc/support_results.asp?criteria=192773&Submit=Go&SearchRun=RunGo
You should find a PDF for the product and then zoom in to be able to read the instructions. I was not able to read instructions that came in packaging.
To set the dawn dusk setting - would be easy if it was in the manual - it is not - according to customer service after install and set up of correct date and time - hit program - make sure no programs are set - should just be dashes - continie hitting program until you see the sun and moon symbol - hit time button should show 12:00 am - keep hitting the time + button (cycle though the hours) until you see the sun and moon symbol - hit the time button 2 x and you should see the pre set dusk dawn setting cycle. Make sure it is in auto - should work.
If you hit the "-" button when cycling through the hours, it will take you immediately to either the to first the sunset then on the second hit the sunrise icons. This makes setting the program go much faster.
The Utilitech 0192773 digital timer will NOT work sunset to sunrise. It can only be programmed with on/off times. Order an Intermatic ST01 from Amazon to get sunrise to sunset control.
My timer will not automatically turn on outside lights for sunset/sunrise feature. Customer service told me I need a new unit. My unit will not get me to that feature throw the program feature... ??

Thelanesare answer was close, close enough for me to figure the shortest approach. Set time, date, zone, dust, etc. Then use program slot 1 to set a program that uses sunrise for all days to turn off the light and sunset to turn on the lights. To do this, go into program 1 and make sure all days are blinking and then uses + to cycle through hours until the sunrise or sunset time appears, resp. This approach uses the daylight timing to automatically adjust on and off using daylight times.
I am cycling through the hours and it never gives me the option to use sunset, sunrise times, just cycles through numbers. :(

Heads up. If you have first installed the switch and you cannot get a digital read-out on the screen (but the on/off button works the lights correctly manually), then you need to push the small "Reset" button in the middle of the buttons. This should do the trick and make the digital read-out appear for you.
