My Conserve Smart aV doesn’t
seem to be working.
It is very important that your primary
device, most likely a TV, is plugged into the
Master Socket. The devices that you want
to be switched off automatically should
be plugged into the Master-Controlled
Sockets. If a device needs to stay on at all
times, make sure it is plugged into one of
the two sockets labeled “Not Controlled
Please ensure all of the connected
plugs/extensions are inserted properly;
if they aren’t pushed in all the way,
they may not connect correctly.
The Surge Protector may be
overloaded. Press the circuit-breaker
button to reset the circuit.
Why are my peripherals switching
on and off intermittently?
In order to fully calibrate the Conserve Smart
AV, you may need to switch off your TV after
you have switched it on for the first time.
The Conserve Smart AV uses something
called auto-calibration. In order for this to
work properly, your TV must go through
an on and off cycle. The Conserve Smart
AV will then learn to adapt to your TV’s
unique patterns of energy consumption.
“Protected” light is not on.
Absence of the “Protected” light indicates
the unit’s sockets are overloaded. Press
the circuit-breaker button to reset the unit.
If the light is not on after resetting the circuit
breaker, then the Surge Protector has reached
the end of its useful life. Replace the Surge
Protector to ensure proper protection.
Can i use my desktop computer
with the Conserve Smart aV?
Yes, you can use a desktop
computer as the master device.
Can i plug anything other than a
tV into the Master Socket?
Yes, you may decide to use your amplifier
as the master device and that’s fine.
However, we do not recommend using
equipment such as a video recorder or
DVD player in the Master Socket.
