    Did you try to check the box to the left of the Sleep pull down? Mine is greyed out as well, but if I click the box I can set as normal.

    On my iMac, once I put a check in the box on the appropriate line I can set a start up or a shutdown as I like.

    You should be able to select the shutdown timer. Mine is also grayed out but I can still select it:
