Appliance Labeling Rule; Final Rule FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION

The Commission, for certain products, delays the compliance dates for certain disclosure requirements contained in two recent amendments to its Appliance Labeling Rule, published on July 1, 1994, and Sept. 28, 1994, in order to allow manufacturers time to comply with the disclosure requirements of the amendments. Until the new mandatory compliance dates for the amendments (explained more fully below), manufacturers of refrigerators, refrigerator-freezers, freezer, clothes washers, dishwashers, and room air conditioners must comply either with the corresponding provisions in the current Appliance Labeling Rule, or with the amendments beginning on their effective date of December 28, 1994. Manufacturers of pool heaters, instantaneous water heaters, and heat pump water heaters must comply with the new disclosure requirements in the amendments either beginning on the announced effective date of December 29, 1994, or beginning on the new mandatory compliance date, as explained more fully below.
