The Energy Information (Household Electric Ovens) Regulations 2003

Regulation 8(2)

SCHEDULE 2 THE INFORMATION NOTICE

1.  The information notice shall contain the information specified below. The information may be given in a more general description of the oven or in the form of a table covering a number of models supplied by the same supplier (in which case it shall be given in the order specified).

(1) Supplier’s trade mark.

(2) Supplier’s model identifier.

(3) The energy efficiency class of the oven, determined in accordance with Schedule 4 and expressed as ‘Energy efficiency class on a scale of A (more efficient) to G (less efficient)’. Where this information is provided in a table, it may be expressed by other means provided that it is clear that the scale is from A (more efficient) to G (less efficient).

(4) Where the information is provided in a table, and where some of the ovens listed in the table have been granted a ‘European Union eco-label’ under Regulation (EC) No 1980/2000, this information may be included here. In this case the row heading shall state ‘European Union eco-label’ and the entry shall consist of a copy of the eco-label. This provision is without prejudice to any requirements under the Community eco-label award scheme.

(5) Energy consumption in kWh for the heating function(s), (conventional and/or forced air convection and/or hot steam) (of ovens) based on standard load determined in accordance with the test procedures of the harmonised standard.

(6) Usable volume of the oven in litres, determined in accordance with the harmonised standard.

(7) The oven size determined as follows:—

• small: 12 l ≤ volume < 35 l

• medium: 35 l ≤ volume < 65 l

• large: 65 l ≤ volume.

This indicator arrow shall be placed at the same level as the relevant size.

(8) Time taken to ‘cook’ standard load determined in accordance with the test procedures of the harmonised standard.

(9) Where applicable, noise measured during the function determining the energy efficiency, determined in accordance with Directive 86/594/EEC.

(10) The declaration of the power consumption when no heating function is performed and the oven is in the lowest power consuming mode as soon as a suitable harmonised standard for stand-by losses becomes available.

(11) The area of the largest baking sheet expressed in cm² and determined as “surface area” according to the harmonised standards.

2.  If a copy of the label, either in colour or black and white is included in the information notice, then only the information which is not included on the label needs to be added.
