2 spot light switches for bull bar and sports bar spotlights
and the turbo timer in the top right corner

Connects to the ignition switch at pin number 1 (IG1) a large black wire if I recall correctly
instructions are in the kit. Also take power from (AM2) pin 5 and give it an earth
all done!

Can you use central locking with it running on the turbo timer?

Using the turbo timer I have shown you here and connected up correctly .My and all the other timers (other brands) I have fitted, the key-less central locking works as per normal.
If you hook the Timer up to the ACC pin out so you a/c still works when timing down the key-less locking will not work as the car thinks the key is in the ignition and you are still in it. ( this is an option in the instructions)
If you hook into the IG2 as the instructions suggest the key-less system works as per normal.

The auto timer takes into account the time the ignition has been on , and adjusts the duration of the idle down time automatically.
They sometimes can be painful

The manual one is just that you push the button for the desired time from 0 to 9 min.
