For a cap-holder system not specifically mentioned in this standard, the relevant information on safety related tests provided by the manufacturer will apply.

The requirements of this standard relate only to type testing.

Recommendations for whole product testing or batch testing are given in Annex A.

This part of the standard covers photobiological safety according to IEC 62471 and IEC TR 62471‑2 . Blue light and infrared hazards are below the level which requires marking.
