This document provides a measurement and evaluation method for the determination of the representative maximum temperature reached inside the base load during the washing cycle of a washing machine or washer-dryer. The mean maximum temperature within the base load is measured with three temperature sensors, which are attached to towels and\/or pillowcases placed in different, representative locations inside the drum. This document does not provide a method for measuring a temperature for the evaluation of hygiene performance.<\/p>\n
