The menu buttons
These touch buttons let you move around your display, so you can see
your energy use the way you want to.

Use these to see your energy use so far today or over the last month and to access
additional settings and functions.

Press the home button and you’ll see the energy you’ve used so far today.
If you’re on a prepayment tariff, you’ll see the balance of the meter with the
lowest credit – read more about this in the Prepayment section.

month / this year – in pounds and pence and Kilo Watt hours.

A quick way of seeing the electricity you’re using right now.

If you have Smart meters for both gas and electric, you can see your energy
use by each fuel or the combined use.

This menu and Ok button will let you change the settings on your display
and access additional functions such as setting a budget. When you press the
button again, it confirms an action and using the arrows lets you
scroll through the menu or highlight a choice.

Prefer to view it in Welsh?

Then select language from the settings menu.

The best way to get to know your display is to have a go.

There’s also a tutorial showing you how it works – you’ll find this via the
menu button.
Your energy use at
a glance
Your display shows you quickly and simply what’s going on in two ways:

The energy display dial

This lets you see at a glance whether your energy use is low,
medium or high. Press the button to see your electricity,
gas or both and use the button to see how much energy
you’ve used so far today / this week/ this month or this year.

By pressing the button when viewing your electricity use,

you can also see how much electricity you’re using right now.

Coloured light indicators

The coloured lights at the bottom of your display show your electricity use right now.
Initially they’re based on a medium size household, but over time your display will
learn your typical electricity use and the scale will be adjusted automatically to reflect
your own household.

Your energy use is: Low

Medium

High

Please be aware that the electricity value shown on your display is updated every 10 seconds
and the gas is updated every 30 minutes.

If you produce
your own electricity
If you produce electricity, this pylon symbol will appear on the
Home screen of your Smart Energy Display when you export it.
The number shown will be the amount of power being exported:
it will not show the power being generated, so the cost shown
should be £0.00 and no bars will be shown on the coloured graph.
Getting to know
what costs what
Your Smart Energy Display helps you understand the energy in your
home, so that you could become a more energy efficient household.

In two steps, it’s easy to see if you’re using more or less energy than normal:

See what your standard energy use is: press

1 the button and look at your display with
just those electrical appliances that are on all
the time, such as a fridge. This shows your
standard level of electricity.

Now look at it when you turn different electric

2
appliances on and off. See how each one
effects your energy use and get a good idea of
what they cost to run.

Over time you’ll be able to make informed decisions about how you could
reduce your energy and save money. Your display has a built in rechargeable
battery, making it portable.So, you can easily compare appliances in other
rooms of your home.

Please note: the costs on your display indicate what you’ll pay in £s and pence.
They’re based on your current tariff, include VAT, but don’t include any discounts
you may have.
Setting a budget
When you’ve got the hang of your display, then you could try setting a
target budget and see how you perform against it.

Whilst the display includes a pre-set budget value for each fuel, it’s best to set your
own budget based on the amount you normally use.

Press the menu button and use the arrow buttons to

select set budget and press OK. You’ll then be able to
select the fuel.

Touch the button to choose your budget’s timeframe, such as daily or weekly (the
display will automatically recalculate the values if you switch from daily to monthly to
show £/day or £/month). A sound signal lets you know if you go over budget. You can turn
this signal on or off from the settings menu.
