Personally on a shallow >40m dive I switch streight after the bubble check at 6m. On a bigger dive like say 70m+ I my leave it till 30m.

On ascent i liked to drop to low set point at 6m and run it manually. That way if i suddenly go up I don't have issues with gas injecting making things worse.

Running the unit manually gives you something to do on deco and i found on my ECCR it was the time when i focused on my displays the most and spotted anomalies.
