United Kingdom

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

  1. (a)

    the name and address of the supplier;

  2. (b)

    a general description of the household tumble drier model, sufficient for it to be unequivocally and easily identified;

  3. (c)

    where appropriate, the references of the F1designated standards applied;

  4. (d)

    where appropriate, the other technical standards and specifications used;

  5. (e)

    the identification and signature of the person empowered to bind the supplier;

  6. (f)

    technical parameters for measurements as follows:

    1. (i)

      for electric mains-operated household tumble drier:

      the energy consumption (Edry , Edry½ , Egdry , Egdry½ , Egdry,a , Egdry½,a ) of the standard cotton programme at full and partial load,

      for household gas-fired tumble drier:

      • the weighted Annual Energy Consumption (AEC(Gas) ) rounded up to one decimal place; it shall be described as: ‘Energy consumption “X” kWh-Gas per year, based on 160 drying cycles of the standard cotton programme at full and partial load. Actual energy consumption per cycle will depend on how the appliance is used’;

        and

      • the weighted Annual Energy Consumption (AEC(Gas)el ) rounded up to one decimal place; it shall be described as: ‘Energy consumption “X” kWh per year, based on 160 drying cycles of the standard cotton programme at full and partial load, and the consumption of the low-power modes. Actual energy consumption per cycle will depend on how the appliance is used.’;

    2. (ii)

      power consumption in ‘off-mode’ and the power consumption in ‘left-on mode’;

    3. (iii)

      the programme time of the ‘standard cotton programme at full load’ (Tdry ) and the programme time of the ‘standard cotton programme at partial load’ (Tdry½ ), in minutes and rounded to the nearest minute;

    4. (iv)

      if the household tumble drier is equipped with a power management system, the duration of the ‘left-on mode’;

    5. (v)

      if the household tumble drier is a condenser tumble drier, the average condensation efficiency Cdry of the standard cotton programme at full load and the average condensation efficiency of the standard cotton programme at partial load Cdry½ ;

    6. (vi)

      the sound power level;

  7. (g)

    the results of calculations performed in accordance with Annex VII.
