EN 50229:2001- 2 -ForewordThis European Standard was prepared by the Technical Committee CENELEC TC 59X,Consumer information related to household electrical appliances, according to thedecisions made by CLC/TC 59X at the meeting in May 2000 and of CLC/TC 59X WG 1 atthe meeting in July 2000. It is based on EN 61121:1999 and EN 60456:1999.Significant technical differences to the first edition, EN 50229:1997, are:• undated references in clause 2,• new definitions in clause 3,• completely revised procedures for the determination of the water and energyconsumption and programme time in 9.4.• extended list of data to be reported in 9.4.5This second edition of EN 50229 supersedes EN 50229:1997.This European Standard has been prepared under a mandate given to CENELEC by theEuropean Commission and the European Free Trade Association and covers essentialrequirements of EC Directive 92/75/EEC on ”Indication by labelling and standard productinformation of the consumption of energy and other resources by household appliances“.It deals only with those test procedures that are required for the EC Directive asdescribed in the scope of this standard.It also defines permitted tolerances to values declared by the manufacturer and controlprocedures for checking these values.The text of the draft was submitted to the formal vote and was approved by CENELEC asEN 50229 on 2001-05-01.The following dates were fixed:- latest date by which the EN has to be implementedat national level by publication of an identicalnational standard or by endorsement(dop)2002-05-01- latest date by which national standards conflictingwith the EN have to be withdrawn(dow)2004-05-01Annexes designated “normative” are part of the body of the standard.Annexes designated “informative” are given for information only.In this standard, annex A is normative and annex B is informative._____________SIST EN 50229:2002

EN 50229:2001- 4 -1 ScopeThis European Standard specifies the test methods which shall be applied in accordance withthe Directive 96/60/EC implementing Council Directive 92/75/EEC with regard to energylabelling of electric clothes washer-dryers for household use.It deals with-performance criteria, including energy and water consumption, for the 60 °C cotton washprogramme as specified in EN 60456,-energy and water consumption of the drying cycle based on the “Dry cotton programme“ asspecified in EN 61121,-permitted tolerances to values declared by the manufacturer and control procedures forchecking these declared values.This European Standard is concerned neither with safety nor with performance requirements.NOTEWasher-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.2 Normative referencesThis European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from otherpublications. These normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and thepublications are listed hereafter.
