In addition to the energy efficiency improvements already achieved, the scope for further reducing the energy consumption of household dishwashers is substantial.(4)Directive 97/17/EC should be repealed and new provisions should be laid down by this Regulation in order to ensure that the energy label provides dynamic incentives for suppliers to further improve the energy efficiency of household dishwashers and to accelerate the market transformation towards energy-efficient technologies.(5)The information provided on the label should be obtained through reliable, accurate and reproducible measurement procedures, which take into account the recognised state-of-the-art measurement methods including, where available, harmonised standards adopted by the European standardisation bodies, as listed in Annex I to Directive 98/34/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 June 1998 laying down a procedure for the provision of information in the field of technical standards and regulations and of rules on Information Society servicesOJ L 204, 21.7.1998, p. 37..(6)This Regulation should specify a uniform design and content for the label for household dishwashers.(7)In addition, this Regulation should specify requirements as to the technical documentation and the fiche for household dishwashers.(8)Moreover, this Regulation should specify requirements as to the information to be provided for any form of distance selling, advertisements and technical promotional materials for household dishwashers.(9)It is appropriate to provide for a review of the provisions of this Regulation taking into account technological progress.(10)In order to facilitate the transition from Directive 97/17/EC to this Regulation, it is appropriate to provide that household dishwashers labelled in accordance with this Regulation are to be considered compliant with Directive 97/17/EC.(11)Directive 97/17/EC should therefore be repealed,HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
