I can't have warm water anymore because my child tampered with the timer etc. What is the best position to fix the clock knob? I don't know the winter or summer indicator.

The ideal position to set the clock knob of the Horstmann Economy 7 thermostat is aligned with the "WINTER TIME" line during the winter season or the "SUMMER TIME" line during British Summer Time. You can regulate the clock by rotating the dial in a clockwise direction. Keep in mind that the clock should be adjusted according to the current season.
