• If the product is visibly damaged in any way, switch off the mains socket to which

the product is connected (switch off at the corresponding circuit breaker or remo-

ve the safety fuse, then switch off the earth leakage circuit breaker). Then unplug

the product from the mains socket.

• Discontinue use of the product, take it to a specialised workshop or dispose of in

an environmentally friendly manner.

• Safe operation may no longer be possible, if:

- the product shows visible signs of damage

- the product does not work at all or works poorly (leaking smoke or a smell of

burning, audible cracking noises, discolouration to the product or the adjacent

surfaces)

- the product was stored under unfavourable conditions

- it was exposed to heavy loads during transport

• Disconnect the power supply from the mains socket when cleaning the product

or if the product is not going to be used for a while (e.g., storage). Keep it in a dry,

clean, cool place, and out of the reach of children.

• Never pour any liquids above or next to the product. You run the risk of causing

a re or a fatal electric shock.

If any liquid has still managed to enter the device, immediately turn off the po-

wer supply to the mains socket at which the product is connected (turn off the

fuse/circuit breaker/residual current operated circuit breaker of the associated

circuits). Only then can you unplug the product from the mains socket and contact

a specialist. Do not use the product any longer.

Battery instructions

• Batteries should be kept out of the reach of children.

• Do not leave batteries lying around in the open; there is a risk of them being

swallowed by children or pets. If swallowed, consult a doctor immediately, it could

be fatal!

• Please pay attention to the correct polarity (plus/+ and minus/-) when inserting

the batteries.

• Batteries must not be short-circuited, opened, taken apart or thrown into a re.

There is a risk of re and explosion!

• Do not recharge normal, non-rechargeable batteries; they may explode!

• Old or at batteries can leak liquid chemicals that may damage the device. There-

fore, if the device is not to be used for a long time (e.g., storage), remove the

batteries.

• Leaking or damaged batteries can lead to caustic burning upon skin contact.

Therefore, use suitable protective gloves.

• Liquids leaking from batteries are very chemically aggressive. Objects or sur-

faces coming into contact with these liquids may be severely damaged. Therefo-

re, store batteries in a suitable location.

• Always replace the complete set of batteries. Do not mix batteries with different

charges (at and half-discharged non-rechargeable/rechargeable batteries).

• Always use batteries/rechargeable batteries of the same type and from the same

manufacturer.

• For the correct disposal of batteries, please read the chapter “Disposal”.

Inserting/replacing batteries

The batteries are used to retain data if the energy cost meter is not plugged into a

wall socket.

On the back of the energy cost meter is a small cover; behind it is the battery compartment for

two LR44 batteries.

If the batteries are already inserted, a small transparent plastic strip will be visible. This plastic

strip protects the batteries from discharging prematurely. Pull out the protective strips.

To insert or replace the batteries, rst disconnect the energy cost meter from the mains voltage

and remove completely from the mains socket. Then unscrew the two screws on the cover

using a suitable Phillips screwdriver and remove the cover. Pay attention to the alignment of

the cover.

Remove the used batteries and dispose of them in an environmentally friendly way. Then insert

two new LR44 batteries with the correct polarity; a mark (+/-) is located next to the battery

compartment. The positive pole of the battery should point towards the metal spring.

Then replace the cover in the correct orientation and tighten the screws removed at the be-

ginning.

A battery change is necessary if the energy cost meter is not plugged into a wall

socket and the display can no longer be activated by briey pressing a button (or the

contrast of the LC display decreases sharply).

Getting started

• Disconnect a user that may be connected to the energy cost measuring device.

• Plug the energy cost measuring device into a household grounded mains socket (230 V/AC,

50 Hz). Prior to initial operation, wait until the normal screen is displayed.

• If the load you want to connect to the energy cost measuring device has a mains switch,

switch it off.

• Plug the mains plug of the load into the grounded mains socket at the front of the energy

cost measuring device.

• Switch the load on and wait a few seconds until the energy cost measuring device displays

the rst measured data.

Before you can use all functions of the energy cost measuring device, you must rst

make a few adjustments (e.g., electricity tariff).

Programming

a) Setting the electricity price

• Press the “COST” button for longer than 3 seconds until the display shows the current price

(„COST/kWh”) in the bottom line. All other display information will disappear. Release the

button.

• The rst eld of the time display will start ashing. Change the setting position by shortly

pressing “SET”. You can use the “UP” button to change the ashing value (hold down the

button for quick adjustment).

• Once you have entered the electricity price, briey press the “COST” button to save the entry

and return to normal operation (alternatively, wait approx. 10 seconds without pressing any

key).

b) Set overload limit

If an adjustable limit is exceeded, “OVERLOAD” will ash on the display.

This function can be used to indicate when the load exceeds the pre-set limit during

normal operation.

• Press and hold the “ENERGY” button for more than 3 seconds until the display shows a value

for the power (e.g., 3680 W) and “OVERLOAD” in the middle row. All other display informati-

on will disappear. Release the button.

• The rst eld of the limit will start ashing. Change the setting position by shortly pressing

“SET“. You can use the “UP” button to change the ashing value (hold down the button for

quick adjustment).

• Once you have entered the limit, briey press the “ENERGY” button to save the entry and

return to normal operation (alternatively, wait approx. 10 seconds without pressing any key).

Operation

• The inserted batteries will guarantee data retention (up to 1 year), if the energy cost meter is

not connected to a mains socket.

If the energy cost meter is disconnected from the mains, the display will go out after a few

seconds to save power. The display can be reactivated by briey pressing any button.

• The upper display line indicates the time that the load is in operation (power consumption

>2 W). Depending on the period, the display will change between minutes/seconds and

hours/minutes. If the operating time is > 24 hours, the time period display in the upper row

will start from the beginning; the days are stored internally and can be displayed in the lower

display line (operating time “DAY”, see below).

• By briey pressing the “ENERGY” button, the display in the middle display line can be swit-

ched between:

- Mains voltage (V)

- Current (A)

- Mains frequency (Hz)

- Power factor (POWER FACTOR)

- Power limit for overload indication (W, OVERLOAD)

- Load power consumption (W)

• By briey pressing the “COST” button, the display in the bottom display line can be switched

between:

- Energy costs (COST)

- Energy consumption (kWh)

- Electricity price (COST/kWh)

- Operation duration (DAY)

- CO

emission (kgCO

)

The base value for calculating CO

emissions is xed at 0.998 kgCO

/kWh (cannot

be changed).
