Regulation 7(2)

SCHEDULE 1 The Label

1.  The label shall be in the relevant language version M1 chosen from the following illustrations—

(a) Figure 1 for a cooling only regulated appliance; or

(b) Figure 2 for a cooling/heating regulated appliance,

and shall include the information required by paragraph 2 and conform to the printing requirements of paragraphs 3 and 4.

2.  The following notes define the information to be included:

Note
I	Supplier's name or trademark.
II	Supplier's model identifier.
	For “split and multi-split” units, the model identifier of the indoor and of the outdoor elements of the combination to which the figures quoted below apply.
III	The energy efficiency class of the model, or combination, determined in accordance with Schedule 3.
	The head of the arrow containing this indicator letter shall be placed at the same level as the head of the relevant arrow.
	The height of the arrow containing the indicator letter shall not be less than—and not more than twice—the height of the classes arrows.
IV	Without prejudice to any requirements under the Community eco-label scheme, where a model has been granted a 'European Union eco-label' under Regulation (EC) No 1980/2000 M2 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17th July 2000 on a revised Community eco-label award scheme, a copy of the eco-label may be added here.
V	The indicative annual energy consumption calculated with the total input power as defined in the harmonised standard multiplied by an average of 500 hours per year in cooling mode at full load, determined in accordance with the test procedures of the harmonised standard (conditions T1 “moderate”).
VI	The cooling output defined as the cooling capacity in kW of the regulated appliance in cooling mode at full load, determined in accordance with the test procedures of the harmonised standard (conditions T1 'moderate').
VII	The EER (energy efficiency ratio) of the regulated appliance in cooling mode at full load, determined in accordance with the test procedures of the harmonised standard (conditions T1 “moderate”).
VIII	The type of regulated appliance: cooling only, cooling/heating. This indicator arrow shall be placed at the same level as the relevant type.
IX	The cooling mode: air cooled, water cooled. This indicator arrow shall be placed at the same level as the relevant type.
X	Only for regulated appliances with heating capability (Figure 2): the heat output defined as the heating capacity in kW of the regulated appliance in heating mode at full load, determined in accordance with the test procedures of the harmonised standard (conditions T1 + 7C).
XI	Only for regulated appliances with heating capability (Figure 2): the heating mode energy efficiency class in accordance with Schedule 3, expressed on a scale of A (higher) to G (lower), determined in accordance with the test procedures of the harmonised standard (conditions T1 + 7C). If the regulated appliance heating capability is provided by a resistive element then the COP (coefficient of performance) shall have the value of 1.
XII	Noise during standard function, where applicable.
