This part of IEC 62885 is applicable to dry-cleaning robots for household use or under conditions similar to those in households. The purpose of this document is to specify the essential performance characteristics of dry-cleaning robots that are of interest to users and to describe methods for measuring these characteristics. Due to nature of the way this product operates in the home, comparisons with other types of surface cleaning appliances (e.g. dry vacuum cleaners) should not be made unless otherwise indicated. The cleaning performance methods, in particular, should only be used to make comparisons with other dry-cleaning robots and not with manually operated vacuum cleaner products. This document is concerned neither with safety requirements nor with performance requirements.

This International Standard is applicable for measurements of the performance of dry vacuum cleaners for household use in or under conditions similar to those in households. The purpose of this standard is to specify essential performance characteristics of dry vacuum cleaners being of interest to the users and to describe methods for measuring these characteristics.
