 ### Detailed Configuration Explanation
 
+- **API_TIMEOUT**
+  - Sets the maximum number of seconds to wait for Sonarr API responses before timing out.
+  - This is particularly important when working with large libraries or when checking for many quality upgrades.
+  - If you experience timeout errors (especially during the "Checking for Quality Upgrades" phase), increase this value.
+  - For libraries with thousands of episodes needing quality upgrades, values of 90-120 seconds may be necessary.
+  - Default is 60 seconds, which works well for most medium-sized libraries.
+
 - **HUNT_MISSING_SHOWS**  
   - Sets the maximum number of missing shows to process in each cycle.  
   - Once this limit is reached, the script stops processing further missing shows until the next cycle.
