Fuel Tanks - Geo Ensemble User Manual

Fuel Tanks:

This function will help you to keep track of
your expenditure. To do this you need to
enter your budget as described in the settings
part of this manual.
The fuel tank works like a fuel gauge of a car.
Every night your fuel tank is filled up with your
daily allowance. Over the course of the day
your tank will empty.
The outer fuel tank shows how much
electricity you have used.
The inner fuel tank shows your target
consumption (in a similar way to a
"pacemaker" in a long distance race).
At first the target fuel tank empties at a steady
rate throughout the day. As it learns your
pattern of electricity usage, it adjusts this
steady rate to one that matches your usage
pattern. For example, it will remember that
you do not use much electricity over night and
take account of this, and adapts to the
different patterns for each day of the week.
You are therefore able to compare your daily
consumption with your target.
You can tell at a glance if you are on track to
use your target amount from these symbols:
It is predicted that you will use less
than your target amount.
It is predicted that you are on track to
use your target amount.
It is predicted that you will use more
than your target amount.
