Delayed start function does not work; cooker starts immediately or not at all.

Safety: Use delayed start only with foods that are safe to sit at room temperature.

• Review instructions: Carefully follow the Gorenje manual for setting delayed start; ensure current time and delay are set correctly.
• Check for power loss: Ensure the cooker remains plugged in and that the outlet is stable; any power loss cancels the timer.
• Keypad test: Verify that time‑setting buttons respond correctly; if not, see the keypad troubleshooting entry.
• PCB issue: If programming is correct and power is stable but the timer still misbehaves, replace the main control board.
