| (14) | Recognizing the growth of sales of energy-related product through web-stores and internet sales platforms, rather than directly from suppliers, it should be clarified that service providers of web-stores and internet sales platforms should be responsible for displaying the label provided by the supplier in proximity to the price. They should inform the supplier of that obligation, but should not be responsible for the accuracy or content of the label and the product information sheet provided. However, in application of Article 14(1)(b) of Directive 2000/31/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (8) on electronic commerce, such internet hosting platforms should act expeditiously to remove or to disable access to information about the product in question if they are aware of the non-compliance (e.g. missing, incomplete or incorrect label or product information sheet) for example if informed by the market surveillance authority. A supplier selling directly to end-users via its own website is covered by dealers' distance selling obligations referred to in Article 5 of Regulation (EU) 2017/1369. |

ANNEX IV

Measurement methods and calculations

For the purposes of compliance and verification of compliance with the requirements of this Regulation, measurements and calculations shall be made using harmonised standards the reference numbers of which have been published for this purpose in the Official Journal of the European Union, or other reliable, accurate and reproducible methods, which takes into account the generally recognised state-of-the-art, and in line with the following provisions.

The energy consumption, EEI, water consumption, programme duration, cleaning and drying performance, and airborne acoustical noise emissions of a household dishwasher model shall be measured and/or calculated using the eco programme with the household dishwasher loaded at rated capacity. The energy consumption, water consumption, programme duration, cleaning and drying performance shall be measured concurrently.

The EPWC is expressed in litres per cycle and rounded to one decimal place.

The duration of the eco programme (Tt) is expressed in hours and minutes and rounded to the nearest minute.

Airborne acoustical noise emissions is measured in dB(A) with respect to 1 pW and rounded to the nearest integer.

1.   ENERGY EFFICIENCY INDEX

For the calculation of the EEI of a household dishwasher model, the EPEC of the household dishwasher is compared to its SPEC.

| (a) | The EEI is calculated as follows and rounded to one decimal place:
  EEI = (EPEC/SPEC) × 100
  where:
  EPEC is the eco programme energy consumption of the household dishwasher, measured in kWh/cycle and rounded to three decimal places;
  SPEC is the standard programme energy consumption of the household dishwasher. |
| --- | --- |

EEI = (EPEC/SPEC) × 100

where:

EPEC is the eco programme energy consumption of the household dishwasher, measured in kWh/cycle and rounded to three decimal places;

SPEC is the standard programme energy consumption of the household dishwasher.

| (b) | The SPEC is calculated in kWh/cycle and rounded to three decimal places as follows:






  (1) | for household dishwashers with rated capacity ps ≥ 10 and width > 50 cm:
  SPEC = 0,025 × ps + 1,350 |
| --- | --- | --- |

(b)

The SPEC is calculated in kWh/cycle and rounded to three decimal places as follows:

(1)

for household dishwashers with rated capacity ps ≥ 10 and width > 50 cm:

SPEC = 0,025 × ps + 1,350

| (2) | for household dishwashers with rated capacity ps ≤ 9 or width ≤ 50 cm:
  SPEC = 0,090 × ps + 0,450

  where ps is the number of place settings. |
| --- | --- |

(2)

for household dishwashers with rated capacity ps ≤ 9 or width ≤ 50 cm:

SPEC = 0,090 × ps + 0,450

where ps is the number of place settings.

2.   CLEANING PERFORMANCE INDEX

For the calculation of the cleaning performance index (IC) of a household dishwasher model, the cleaning performance of the eco programme is compared to the cleaning performance of a reference dishwasher.

The IC is calculated as follows and rounded to two decimal places:

IC = exp (ln IC)

and

Formula

where:

CT,i is the cleaning performance of the eco programme of the household dishwasher under test for one test run (i), rounded to two decimal places;

CR,i is the cleaning performance of the reference dishwasher for one test run (i), rounded to two decimal places;

n is the number of test runs.

3.   DRYING PERFORMANCE INDEX

For the calculation of the drying performance index (ID) of a household dishwasher model, the drying performance of the eco programme is compared to the drying performance of the reference dishwasher.

The ID is calculated as follows and rounded to two decimal places:

ID = exp (ln ID)

and

Formula

where:

ID,i is the drying performance index of the eco programme of the household dishwasher under test for one test run (i);

n is the number of combined cleaning and drying test runs.

The ID,i is calculated as follows and rounded to two decimal places:

ln ID,i
  = ln (DT,i/DR,t)

where:

DT,i is the average drying performance score of the eco programme of the household dishwasher under test for one test run (i), rounded to two decimal places;

DR,t is the target drying score of the reference dishwasher, rounded to two decimal places.

4.   LOW POWER MODES

The power consumption of the off mode (Po), standby mode (Psm) and where applicable delay start (Pds) are measured. The measured values are expressed in W and rounded to two decimal places.

During measurements of the power consumption in low power modes, the following shall be checked and recorded:

| — | the display or not of information; |

ANNEX IX

Verification procedure for market surveillance purposes

The verification tolerances set out in this Annex relate only to the verification of the measured parameters by Member State authorities and shall not be used by the supplier as an allowed tolerance to establish the values in the technical documentation. The values and classes on the label or in the product information sheet shall not be more favourable for the supplier than the values reported in the technical documentation.

Where a model has been designed to be able to detect it is being tested (e.g. by recognising the test conditions or test cycle), and to react specifically by automatically altering its performance during the test with the objective of reaching a more favourable level for any of the parameters specified in this Regulation or included in the technical documentation or included in any of the documentation provided, the model and all equivalent models shall be considered not compliant.

When verifying the compliance of a product model with the requirements laid down in this Regulation, the authorities of the Member States shall apply the following procedure:

| (1) | The Member State authorities shall verify one single unit of the model. |
| --- | --- |

(1)

The Member State authorities shall verify one single unit of the model.

| (2) | The model shall be considered to comply with the applicable requirements if:






  (a) | the values given in the technical documentation pursuant to point 3 of Article 3 of Regulation (EU) 2017/1369 (declared values), and, where applicable, the values used to calculate these values, are not more favourable for the supplier than the corresponding values given in the test reports; and |
| --- | --- | --- |

| (b) | the values published on the label and in the product information sheet are not more favourable for the supplier than the declared values, and the indicated energy efficiency class and the airborne acoustical noise emission class are not more favourable for the supplier than the class determined by the declared values; and |
| --- | --- |

(b)

the values published on the label and in the product information sheet are not more favourable for the supplier than the declared values, and the indicated energy efficiency class and the airborne acoustical noise emission class are not more favourable for the supplier than the class determined by the declared values; and

| (c) | when the Member State authorities test the unit of the model, the determined values (the values of the relevant parameters as measured in testing and the values calculated from these measurements) comply with the respective verification tolerances as given in Table 5. |
| --- | --- |

(c)

when the Member State authorities test the unit of the model, the determined values (the values of the relevant parameters as measured in testing and the values calculated from these measurements) comply with the respective verification tolerances as given in Table 5.
