To check the last day's electricity usage in kWh on the Landis+Gyr Cashpower Gem Lite meter, follow these steps:

1. Enter information mode using the keypad.
2. Navigate to the appropriate register code for consumption history.
3. Check the consumption value for the last recorded day.

The meter tracks electricity usage in different registers, including current 30-day consumption (Register 008), which displays daily usage.
