ENERGY METER
4.
The energy cost measuring device is intended for measuring and analysing consumption details of electrical devices. The measuring
device is connected easily between the mains socket and the electric device and requires no additional installation. It is only to be
used with standard domestic mains sockets with a nominal voltage of 230 V/AC. The max. nominal performance must not exceed
3680 watts.
To calculate the costs, the current valid electricity rate can be entered. Further, the device provides a cost forecast per day/month/
year. The consumption details can be displayed and adjusted on the device even when it is unplugged from a power socket. To do
this, the device contains two button cell batteries. The device is only to be used with the specified batteries.
The measuring device is not officially calibrated and therefore must not be used for billing purposes.

Inserting/Replacing the Batteries
Before using for the first time or when the display does not show any values after pressing the button, the coin cell batteries must
be inserted or replaced. The batteries are used to ensure that the set parameters and measured values are saved in the device
even when it is unplugged.
The battery compartment (7) must only be opened if the device is unplugged.
