      Labelling and communication requirements

          (1)          Subject to subsection 7 (2) of this Determination, for subsections 24 (1) (b), 26 (1) (a) and 26 (1) (b) of the Act, the labelling requirements are the labelling and communication requirements in sections 2 and 5 and Appendix B of AS/NZS 2040.2:2005 with the following modifications:

          (2)          For subsection 7 (1) of this Determination, if a star rating of seven or more stars is derived from the star rating index in accordance with Part 1 of Schedule 1 of this Determination, the labelling requirements are either:
             (a)     the requirements specified in sections 2, 5 and Appendix B of AS/NZS 2040.2:2005 as if the star rating were deemed to be 6 stars; or
             (b)      the requirements specified in Part 2 of Schedule 1 of this Determination (the Super-Efficiency Label).
             Note: Where the derived star rating is one to six stars, the standard Energy Efficiency Label (that is, the labelling requirements specified in sections 2 and 5 and Appendix B of AS/NZS 2040.2:2005) must still be used.
      Conducting tests

          (3)          For paragraphs 24 (1) (b) and 26 (1) (c) of the Act, the specified requirements for conducting tests are the requirements prescribed section 2 of AS/NZS 2040.2:2005, with the following modifications:
             (a)     For any test, the standard mixed cotton test load must be:

                 (i)            for test loads of 10 kilograms or less – as shown in Table C2 of AS/NZS 2040.1:2005, made up from the components detailed in Table C1 of AS/NZS 2040.1‑2005; or

                 (ii)         for test loads greater than 10 kg but not greater than 20 kg – as shown in the Table in Part 1 of Schedule 2 made up from the components detailed in the Table C1 of AS/NZS 2040.1:2005.
             (b)      Where a manufacturer claims a rated capacity greater than 20 kg, the product must be rated and tested at 20 kg under this Determination.
             (c)       For paragraph C 3.1 of AS/NZS 2040.1:2005, the total number of swatches required is determined according to Part 2 of Schedule 2 of this Determination.
