below.
COMMON MODIFICATIONS
7 Marking and instructions
p 7.1 Delete the instruction related to the first paragraph.
p 7.6 Delete this instruction (7.6 was deleted by common modification to A1).
p 7.12 Replace the complete text of the addition by the following:
The instructions shall give clear information with regard to the proper use of the appliance.
UV appliances shall include a statement that non-users, especially children, must not be present when
the appliance is being operated.
The instructions for appliances having UV emitters shall include the substance of the following:
– a statement that UV appliances are not to be used by:
• persons under the age of 18 years;
• persons who tend to freckle;
• persons with a natural red hair colour;
• persons having abnormal discoloured patches on the skin;
• persons having more than 16 moles (2 mm or more in diameter) on the body;
• persons having any atypical moles (atypical moles are defined as asymmetrical moles larger
than 5 mm in diameter with variable pigmentation and irregular borders; in case of doubt, seek
medical advice);
• persons suffering from sunburn;
• persons not able to tan at all or not able to tan without burning when exposed to the sun;
• persons that burn easily when exposed to the sun;
• persons having a history of frequent severe sunburn during childhood;
• persons suffering from or previously suffering from skin cancer or predisposed to skin cancer;
• persons having a first-degree relative with a history of melanoma;
• persons under a doctor’s care for diseases that involve photosensitivity;
• persons receiving photosensitising medications;
– a statement that exposures should not exceed a person's minimal erythemal dose (MED). If
erythema (skin reddening) appears hours after any exposure, further exposure should cease. After
one week, exposures could be restarted from the beginning of the schedule of exposure;
– a statement that if unexpected side effects, such as itching, occur within 48 h of the first session of
using a UV appliance, medical advice should be sought prior to further UV exposure;
– information concerning the intended exposure distance (unless this is controlled by the construction
of the UV appliance);

– recommended schedule of exposure specifying duration and intervals (based on the UV emitter
characteristics, distances and skin sensitivity);
NOTE 101 The recommended exposure time for the first session for untanned skin is to correspond to a dose not exceeding
2
100 J/m , weighted according to the erythema action spectrum shown in Figure 101, or as a result of a test on a small area of the
skin. For calculation of the recommended exposure time for the first session use the formula in Note 5 of 32.101. Otherwise sunbed
exposure should be at least 10 min.
– recommended number of exposures that should not be exceeded in one year;
NOTE 102 As any exposure to UV radiation increases the risk of skin cancer, there is no safe value of maximum yearly dose, but
2
it is recommended not to exceed 25 kJ/m , weighted according to the non-melanoma skin cancer action spectrum shown in
Figure 101 and taking into account the recommended schedule of exposure.
– a statement that the appliance must not be used if the timer is faulty or the filter is broken or
removed;
– identification of alternative components that may influence the ultraviolet radiation, such as filters and
reflectors;
– identification of replaceable UV emitters and a statement that they are only to be replaced by types
marked on the appliance. For fluorescent UV lamps for tanning, it shall be stated that they are only to
be replaced by types marked with an equivalency code, the UV component of which falls within the
UV component equivalency code range that is marked on the appliance. In this case, an example of
the equivalency code shall be given and the UV component aspect of the fluorescent UV lamp for
tanning equivalency code shall be explained.
The instructions for appliances having UV emitters shall contain the substance of the following
information and precautions:
– ultraviolet radiation from the sun or from UV appliances can cause skin or eye damage that may be
irreversible. These biological effects depend upon the quality and quantity of the radiation as well as
the skin sensitivity of the individual;
– the skin may develop sunburn after overexposure. Excessively repeated exposures to ultraviolet
radiation from the sun or from UV appliances may lead to premature ageing of the skin as well as
increased risk of development of skin tumours. These risks increase with increasing cumulative UV
exposure. Exposure at an early age increases the risk of skin damage later in life;
– the unprotected eye may develop surface inflammation and in some cases damage may occur to the
retina after excessive exposure. Cataracts may develop after many repeated exposures;
– in cases of pronounced individual sensitivity or allergic reaction to ultraviolet radiation, medical
advice is recommended before starting exposure;
– the following precautions must be taken:
• always use the protective goggles provided. Contact lenses and sun glasses are not a
substitute for goggles;
• remove cosmetics well in advance of exposure and do not use any sunscreens or products that
accelerate tanning;
• certain medical conditions or side effects of certain medicines may be aggravated by ultraviolet
exposure. In case of doubt, seek medical advice;
• allow at least 48 h between the first two exposures;
• do not sunbathe and use the appliance on the same day;
• follow the recommendations concerning exposure durations, exposure intervals and distances
from the lamp;

• seek medical advice if persistent lumps or sores appear on the skin or if there are changes in
pigmented moles;
• protect sensitive skin parts such as scars, tattoos and genitals from exposure.
For appliances having a lid that has to be opened in normal use, the instructions shall include a warning
that the appliance must not be switched on with the lid in the closed position and that, before closing the
lid for storage, the appliance must be disconnected from the supply and allowed to cool down.
NOTE 103 This warning is not required if the appliance complies with the tests of 19.2 and 19.3.
The instructions for appliances having IR emitters shall include advice for the protection of the eyes
against exposure to infrared radiation and advise that adequate precautions must be taken to safeguard
the user against the dangers of excessive exposure.
32 Radiation, toxicity and similar hazards
32.101 Replace the existing text by the following:
Appliances shall not present a toxic or similar hazard. Appliances having UV emitters shall not emit
2
radiation having a total effective irradiance exceeding 0,3 W/m weighted according to the erythema
action spectrum of Figure 101.
Appliances shall comply with the values specified in Table BB.1.
Compliance is checked by the following test:
The appliance is provided with UV emitters that have been aged by supplying them at rated voltage for
a period of approximately:
– 5 h for fluorescent lamps;
– 1 h for high-intensity discharge lamps.
NOTE 1 A high-intensity discharge lamp is an electric discharge lamp in which the radiation-producing arc is stabilized by the wall
2
temperature and the arc has a bulb wall loading in excess of 3 W/cm .
NOTE 2 For appliances containing both fluorescent lamps and high-intensity discharge lamps, the high-intensity discharge lamps
can be aged for the same period as the fluorescent lamps.
The appliance is supplied at rated voltage and operated for approximately half the maximum exposure
time allowed by the timer. The irradiance is then measured at the shortest recommended exposure
distance, the measuring instrument being positioned so that the highest radiation is recorded. However,
the irradiance of facial guns is measured at a distance of 100 mm ± 2 mm and calculated for the
recommended exposure distance.
The exposure distance of UV emitters that are located over a person is the distance between the emitter
and the supporting surface, reduced by 0,3 m.
The measuring instrument used shall measure the mean irradiance over a circular area having a diameter
not exceeding 20 mm. The response of the instrument shall be proportional to the cosine of the angle
between incident radiation and the normal to the circular area. The spectral irradiance shall be measured
at intervals not exceeding 2,5 nm in an appropriate spectroradiometric system. The spectroradiometer
shall have a bandwidth not exceeding 2,5 nm.
NOTE 3 A bandwidth of 1 nm is advisable for greater measurement accuracy in cases where a rapid change of the spectral
energy occurs within a small bandwidth area.
NOTE 4 For appliances having upper and lower radiating surfaces, each part is measured separately while the other part is
covered or removed. If the distance between two radiating surfaces is less than 0,3 m, the measurement is made at the surface of
the upper panel.
