How to Use the Power Consumption Feature on Your ABIS Smart Clothes Airer

The power consumption feature on your ABIS Smart Clothes Airer lets you track and manage energy usage. This is a great way to monitor how much electricity the airer is using and optimise its operation for energy efficiency. Follow these steps to access and use the power consumption feature via the Smart Life app.

Step 1: Open the Smart Life App

1. Ensure that your ABIS Smart Clothes Airer is connected to the Smart Life app and working properly.
2. Open the Smart Life app on your smartphone.
3. On the home screen, find and tap your Smart Clothes Airer from the list of connected devices.

Step 2: Access the Power Consumption Feature

1. Once you’re in the airer’s control panel, tap on the three dots (···) or Settings icon in the upper-right corner to access more options.
2. Scroll through the menu to find the Electricity Statistics or Power Consumption option (this name may vary depending on the version of the app or device settings).
3. Tap on Power Consumption to open the detailed energy usage data for your airer.

Step 3: View Energy Usage Data

1. The power consumption screen will show various statistics about the airer’s energy use, typically broken down into the following:
   • Current Power Usage: The real-time energy consumption of your airer.
   • Daily Power Consumption: The amount of electricity the airer has used during the current day.
   • Monthly Power Consumption: A summary of the airer’s energy usage over the past month, giving you a clearer picture of how much electricity it consumes over time.
2. You can view this data in graphical formats or as specific numbers, depending on the app version.

Step 4: Monitor and Optimize Usage

1. Use this data to better understand when and how your airer is consuming the most energy.
   • For example, you might notice higher power consumption during longer drying sessions.
2. Based on the data, you can adjust your drying schedules or settings to minimize energy use during peak hours or reduce drying time to save electricity.
3. If you’re using the scheduling feature, try to set drying times during off-peak hours when electricity rates may be lower, optimizing both cost and energy consumption.

Step 5: Track Long-Term Usage

1. By regularly checking the Monthly Power Consumption, you can track how efficiently your ABIS Smart Clothes Airer is performing over time.
2. Compare energy usage across different months to determine if your changes in drying habits are reducing overall energy consumption.

Tips for Reducing Energy Consumption

• Set shorter drying sessions: Instead of running the airer for extended periods, break the drying into shorter sessions based on the weather and load size.
• Use scheduled drying times: Take advantage of off-peak electricity hours by scheduling your airer to run at times when energy costs are lower.
• Optimize drying with the environment: On sunny or dry days, use the airer minimally or supplement with natural drying to save energy.

Troubleshooting Power Consumption Data

• Data not showing: Ensure your airer is properly connected to the Smart Life app and powered on. Sometimes, restarting the app can refresh the data.
• Inconsistent data: If you notice inconsistent data, check for any app updates or firmware updates that may correct any tracking issues.
• Energy usage seems high: Monitor the drying cycles closely to see if you’re running the airer longer than necessary. Adjust the schedules to more energy-efficient times if needed.

You’re Ready to Monitor Your Energy Use!

By using the power consumption feature in the Smart Life app, you can effectively monitor how much electricity your ABIS Smart Clothes Airer uses and make informed decisions to reduce energy waste. This feature helps you achieve optimal drying performance while keeping an eye on energy efficiency.
