Use case · Home appliances

Home appliances and their information in one place.

Organize model details and available documents for washing machines and other home appliances. Use the general product fields; this example does not introduce a dedicated home-appliance profile.

From an internal record to a selected public view

Keep available operating instructions and manufacturer records in the workspace and associate them with the corresponding model details. Storing a file does not verify its accuracy or a technical product characteristic.

  1. 01
    Record a draft and its sources

    Start a private draft with a product name, SKU and model number in the general template. Record sources and the last review date. This example requires no dedicated home-appliance profile and does not provide legal approval.

  2. 02
    Organize supporting evidence internally

    Link available documents to the corresponding details. A clean malware scan permits file access; it does not verify the content or the accuracy of product information.

  3. 03
    Share a selected version

    Review field visibility and deliberately publish a version. Its link and QR code remain tied to that record; later changes are published as a new version.

Illustrative data example

Shore washing machine · EXAMPLE-H01

A partial record with fictional example details, not a tested product or a published passport. Replace the examples with traceable information from your business.

Model and product identity

EXAMPLE-H01

Record the product name, SKU and model number in the general product record.

Manufacturer

Available manufacturer details

Associate the name and available manufacturer address with the model, keeping information from different model documents separate.

Care and repair

Available instructions as a source

Record available care or repair information in the general text fields; instructions can be linked internally as evidence.

Legislation and important dates

Sources checked:

Currently applicable

For covered household washing machines and washer-dryers, Regulations 2019/2023 (ecodesign) and 2019/2014 (energy labelling) generally apply from 1 March 2021. They cover product information, energy labelling and repair information, among other matters; certain efficiency limits apply from 1 March 2024. Other appliances have their own rules.

Planning and DPP scope

An energy label or EPREL entry is not a DPP. These rules do not create a blanket DPP duty for all home appliances. Further ESPR measures need checking by product and application date; DPP Direct does not connect to EPREL or perform a conformity assessment here.

Guidance, not a complete legal assessment: product, role, market, exceptions and current amendments matter. Example platform fields are not a list of legally mandatory data. DPP Direct guarantees neither legal compliance nor certification.

The examples describe existing platform features. A category alone does not determine a DPP duty for a specific product. The platform does not guarantee legal compliance, certification or complete coverage of sector-specific requirements.

Private drafts can be prepared immediately. Free publishing with up to 5 active passports requires business review and assignment of a Free workspace. Manual review is available without a registry entry.
