Appliance description
The cashier system controls the power supply to the appliance connected based on
the amount entered. Measured and charged is the length of time that electricity is
used. Enough coins (CHF / EUR) or tokens have to be entered for a complete wash
or drying programme.
Recommendations for use
The appliance does not give change. If operated with coins, it is recommended that
a basic amount, e.g. (CHF / EUR), be entered. This ensures that the longest
possible programme runs correctly.
At the end of the wash day, the user makes the amount up to again.
The appliance does not always charge the same amount of money for the
same wash or drying programmes as the length of time that electricity is used
depends on various factors (load, amount and temperature of water, voltage,
etc.).
The maximum credit possible is .

Calculation
The charges to be defined for the appliance are based on the operating costs of the
washing machine or tumble dryer connected.
The operating costs comprise the costs of the electricity and water consumed as well
as of any service agreement.
Example calculation for a washing machine with a 6 kg load
capacity
Basis: Main programme Coloureds 60 °C without a pre-wash
In the absence of any of the individual components of the calculation, we recommend
a charge of CHF 0.90 per hour for washing and CHF 1.20 per hour for drying.
The values indicated below are average values. These can (depending on
local electricity and water tariffs as well as service agreement costs) vary
widely.
Electricity costs
Electricity consumption Electricity tariff Electricity costs
1.4 kWh × CHF/kWh 0.25 = CHF 0.35
Water costs (incl. waste water)
Water consumption Water tariff Water costs
70 litres = 0.07 m³ × CHF/m³ 3.76 = CHF 0.26
Cost of annual service agreement
Service agreement (WM + COS) No. wash cycles Cost of service agreement
CHF 232.00 + 83.00 = CHF 315.00 ÷ 600 = CHF 0.53
Total operating costs per programme (duration 1hr16) CHF 1.14
Operating costs Per hour Programme duration
CHF 1.14 × 60 mins. ÷ 76 mins. = CHF/hr 0.90
All manuals and user guides at all-guides.com

…Calculation
12
Individual calculation
You will need the following details:
Electricity consumption* ........... kWh From the operating instructions
Water consumption* (1m³ = 1000 litres) .............. m³ From the operating instructions
Programme duration* ........ hr ....... From the operating instructions
Electricity tariff per kWh (incl. peak and low tariffs)CHF ........... Ask local electricity supplier
Water tariff per m³ (incl. waste water) CHF ........... Ask local water authorities
Annual service costs CHF ........... See service agreement
Number of wash cycles per year ................... Approximately 150–200 per year and household
*The calculation should be based on the example of the most frequently used
programme and carried out separately for each appliance. Ideally, for the washing
machine select the main programme «Coloureds 60 °C» without a pre-wash and for
the tumble dryer select the «Standard dry» programme.
