Abstract: A mobile device for communicating with a smart appliance and the Internet is disclosed. The mobile device includes a sensing element for detecting a current value of an operational features of the smart appliance. A memory including relationships between other values and operational features is provided. A processor is also provided for accessing the memory and comparing the current and other values to determine whether there is a match. If the values do not match, the process generates and sends instructions to the smart appliance to adjust its settings so as to bring the current and other values into alignment. The mobile device is also in communication with the Internet where the mobile device may draw upon online resources to perform or support performing any of the above steps.

Abstract: The invention refers to a method for controlling an electric appliance, in particular an electric household appliance (1, 11, 12). The electric appliance is coupled to an electric supply system, particularly to a line section (13) of an electric supply system. The electric supply system has a, preferably fuse-protected, limited electrical power transfer capacity. The electric appliance is operated by an operating program, which comprises at least one program segment during which relevant electrical power consumption is drawn from the electric supply system, particularly from the line section (13) of the electric supply system. The operating program is controlled based on at least one of:—the electrical power currently providable by the electric supply system;—the electrical power allocatable to the electric appliance by the electric supply system at present or on short notice;—the voltage value or amperage value currently existent in the electric supply system during the operation of the electric appliance;—a voltage drop or voltage difference or an amperage change currently occurring in the electric supply system at the moment of starting an operating program with relevant electrical power consumption;—a result of a comparison of a measured energy consumption information with a reference energy consumption information.
