Unfortunately, that does not work. According to the specs, every rule must specify its own months range. If you don't, that rule applies throughout the whole year. E.g.

Jun: Mo-Sa 10:00-18:00; Sun 10:00-12:00

is interpreted as "open Mo-Sa 10-18 o'clock in June, always open on Sunday 10-12 o'clock".
