EU Energy Label for Televisions
On 30 November, 2010 the European Commission adopted the Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1062/2010 with regard to energy labelling of televisions.
The Regulation entered into force on 20 December 2010 and applies in all Member States.
Manufacturers and dealers are required to display the label shown below, on their televisions from 30 November 2011.
The label provides information to assist consumers in evaluating televisions for energy efficiency and energy consumption and to make a purchasing decision that contributes to the protection of the environment and to a lower carbon society.
The figure below shows the label design and explains the information included. For further information please visit the Sharp internet homepage (http://www. sharp.eu).
The retailer or online shop where you purchased your television from would have displayed the label and its corresponding rating. If in doubt please consult them.
In addition to saving energy many Sharp LCD televisions also carry the EU Ecolabel, a voluntary environmental label that is awarded to goods which meet the environmental requirements of the EU ecolabelling scheme (for details see http://ec.europa.eu/environment/ecolabel/). This voluntary label enhances further the environmental credentials of our televisions.
