I couldn’t find an official manual for a “Chevron Digital Timer EW-32” in my available resources. It’s possible the model number is slightly different, or the brand name may be a rebranded product (common for outlet timers).
However, based on typical 7-day digital programmable outlet timers with similar buttons (Chevron often rebrands common Chinese designs), here is a generic user manual text that should work for the EW-32.
