(c) For household washer-dryers with a rated washing capacity lower than or equal to 3 kg, the E WD is the energy consumption at rated capacity and rounded to three decimal places.For other household washer-dryers, the E WD is calculated in kWh per cycle as follows and rounded to three decimal places:where: E WD,full is the energy consumption of the household washer-dryer for the wash and dry cycle at rated capacity and rounded to three decimal places;E WD,½ is the energy consumption of the household washer-dryer for the wash and dry cycle at half the rated capacity and rounded to three decimal places.(d) The weighted energy consumption per 100 cycles of the complete cycle of the washer-dryer is calculated as follows and rounded to the nearest integer: E WD × 100

(a) the rated washing capacity is the sum of the rated washing capacities of each drum; for multi-drum household washer-dryers, the rated capacity is the sum of the rated capacities of each drum; (b) the energy and water consumption of the multi-drum household washing machine and of the washing cycle of the multi-drum household washer-dryer is the sum of the energy consumption, or water consumption, of each drum; (c) the energy and water consumption of the complete cycle of the multi-drum household washer-dryer is the sum of the energy consumption, or water consumption, of each drum; (d) the Energy Efficiency Index (EEI W ) is calculated using the rated washing capacity and energy consumption; for multi-drum household washer-dryers, the Energy Efficiency Index (EEIWD ) is calculated using the rated capacity and energy consumption;(e) the duration is the duration of the longest eco 40-60 programme, or wash and dry cycle, operating in each drum; (f) the residual moisture content after washing is calculated as the weighted average, according to each drum’s rated capacity; (g) for household multi-drum washer-dryers, the final moisture content after drying is measured individually for each drum; (h) the measurement of low power modes, of the acoustic airborne noise emissions and the acoustic airborne noise emissions class apply to the whole household washing machine.
