We have a question about a technical specification, as stated in SF1449 CONTINUATION

SHEET – TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS / ATTACHMENT 1.

In SF1449 CONTINUATION SHEET – TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS / ATTACHMENT 1 you ask for the following water stop/back flow system:

- Water Leakage Sensor in Hose ( mechanical or Electrical )

- Water Leakage Sensor in the machine ( base )

Can you please confirm that the government means the following two sensors:

- A water leakage sensor in hose ( mechanical or electrical )

- A system in which the machine has a closed bottom. A sensor is placed on the closed bottom of the machine. When a leakage is caused from any kind of error or broken part it will be detected by the bottom sensor. The machine will stop and start draining water, therefore damage will be prevented. Also, water will not reach the floor because it is ending up in the bottom of the machine.

Ans: Please see highlighted bold text and disregard the additional language to the question.

Function is a standard based on the sensor.

*Could you please clarify with customer whether following is acceptable?

“Washing Machines and Dryers can be delivered with a Control Display in German, user manual can be delivered as a PDF file in English”.

Ans: Salient characteristics specifically require English print control display or universal symbols.

**I know the technical specification required 7kg minimum capacity, can I provide three different models with three different capacity ranging from 7kg-9kg that meet the technical specifications for the customer to choose from?

Ans: Yes. Requirement is for a 7kg minimum.

On the Clin 0002 : EU Dryer 7+ minimum, as minimum technically acceptable Specifications are mentioned that item must be Stackable Front Load Condenser Dryer and Energy Rating:

Minimum A, European Union Energy Label.

Due to manufacturing and technological limitations, for Condenser Dryers, the best available energy rating for European Union Energy Label is B. For Dryers with Heat Pump technology the minimum energy rating is A and upper.

Ans: Condenser is not specifically stated. Energy rating must be a minimum of A. Heat Pump technology is acceptable.

Kindly clarify, in order to avoid misunderstandings and have clear information of minimum acceptable technical specifications, if is it technically acceptable to submit Condenser Dryer with Energy Rating B.

Ans: NO. Energy Rating of A
