Scope

This European Standard specifies the test methods which shall be applied in accordance with the Commission Directive 96/60/EC of 19 September 1996 implementing Council Directive 92/75/EEC with regard to energy labelling of household combined washer-driers. It deals with – performance criteria, including energy and water consumption, for the 60 °C cotton wash programme as specified in EN 60456:2005, – energy and water consumption of the drying cycle based on the “Dry cotton programme“ as specified in EN 61121:2005, – permitted tolerances to values declared by the manufacturer and control procedures for checking these declared values. This European Standard is concerned neither with safety nor with performance requirements. NOTE Washer-dryers for communal use in blocks of flats or in launderettes are within the scope of this standard, but machines for commercial laundries are not included.
