TROUBLESHOOTING
When using Conserve Socket, my device
does not fully charge.
Make sure you have selected an appropriate
time period for the device you are trying to
charge by referring to step 3 of the Quick
Setup Guide, or simply increase the time
period selected on the Conserve Socket.
When I press the start button a second
time, the unit does not turn off.
The Conserve Socket cannot be manually
turned off; you should wait for the countdown
timer to finish, which will turn off the device.
You can also turn off (reset) your Conserve
Socket by unplugging it from the wall outlet.

USE ENERGY WISELY
Using electricity or driving a car does have an effect
on the environment, but by using energy wisely we
can prevent waste and reduce carbon dioxide (CO2)
emissions.
CO2is a greenhouse gas that accumulates in the
Earth’s atmosphere, trapping heat from the sun and
keeping the planet warm. CO2comes, in part, from
the burning of fossil fuels, such as coal and gasoline,
to generate electricity for use in our homes and to
power our cars.
The amount of CO2 in our atmosphere has increased
over the past century, and the majority of scientists
questioned in a recent international study agree that
global temperatures have risen dramatically compared
with levels from the 1800s, with human activity being
a significant contributing factor. According to the
International Energy Agency, a warmer Earth may lead
to changes in rainfall patterns, a rise in sea level, and a
wide range of impacts on plants, wildlife, and humans.
A good way to visualize CO2is to imagine that 1 pound
of CO2would fill up 710 soda cans (12oz), or a box
2-feet high, 2-feet wide, and 2-feet deep.
Belkin Conserve products can help you do your part to
use energy wisely.
Use Less, Save More, Feel Good.
Facts gathered from a study conducted by the University
of Illinois, the International Energy Agency, and the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency.
