** Test programme in accordance with Regulation 392/2012/EU for energy labelling measured in
accordance with EN 61121
All data without a "star" against it was calculated using EN 61121
Before testing in accordance with EN 61121, drya3kgload of cotton laundry with 70% residual
moisture as per the above standard using the Cottons Normal programme.
Consumption data can vary from the nominal values given above depending on the size of the
load, type of textiles, residual moisture levels after spinning and fluctuations in the electricity
supply.
