ANNEX V Verification procedure for market surveillance purposes

For the purposes of compliance and verification of compliance with the requirements of this Regulation, measurements and calculations shall be made using harmonised standards the reference numbers of which have been published in the Official Journal of the European Union, or other reliable, accurate and reproducible methods, which take into account the generally recognised state of the art methods, and whose results are deemed to be of low uncertainty.

For the purposes of checking conformity with the requirements laid down in Articles 3 and 4, Member State authorities shall test a single household tumble drier. If the measured parameters do not meet the values declared by the supplier within the ranges set out in Table 1, the measurements shall be carried out on three more household tumble driers. The arithmetic mean of the measured values of those three household tumble driers shall meet the values declared by the supplier within the ranges defined in Table 1.

Otherwise, the model and all other equivalent household tumble driers models shall be considered not to comply with the requirements laid down in Articles 3 and 4.
