Crossword Genius

1000 smack dealers with time off for good behaviour (7)

I believe the answer is:

manners

'good behaviour' is the definition.
(polite behaviour)

I cannot understand how the rest of the clue works.

(Other definitions for manners that I've seen before include "Acceptable behaviour" , "Politeness" , "Courtesy" , "Etiquette" , "Social conduct" .)
