14 1 Modification to the Introduction
15 Addition:
16 With European amendment A11, EN 60335-2-3:2016+A1:2020 is superseded.
17 This European amendment A11 supplements or modifies the corresponding clauses of the standards
18 below:
19 — EN IEC 60335-1:2023+A11:2023 (Part 1)
20 — EN IEC 60335-2-3:2024 (Part 2)

23 take into account " except for the dashed items with the following:
24 “This standard deals with the reasonably foreseeable hazards presented by appliances and machines
25 that are encountered by all persons. However, in general, it does not take into account:”
26 Add before the sixth paragraph starting with “Attention is drawn to the fact” the following:
27 “It is recognized that people with disabilities can have needs beyond the level addressed in this
28 standard.”
Issue Manager’s note: The above sentence is considered a good alternative for the original
sentence “It is recognized that very vulnerable people may have needs beyond the level addressed

energized or cooling down.”

38 22.40 Addition:
39 “Remote operation or a delayed start timer is not allowed.”
