SIST EN IEC 60335-2-111:2026/A11:2026 is the Slovenian adoption of the CENELEC amendment EN IEC 60335-2-111:2026/A11:2026 for household and similar electrical appliances safety. It updates the product-specific safety text for electric ondol mattress with a non-flexible heated part, especially the scope and the user instructions. The amendment is read together with EN IEC 60335-2-111:2026 and the general Part 1 safety standard.

What does SIST EN IEC 60335-2-111:2026/A11:2026 specify?

SIST EN IEC 60335-2-111:2026/A11:2026 specifies amendments to the European standard for electric ondol mattress with a non-flexible heated part. It does not stand alone as a full product standard; it changes selected clauses, annexes and bibliography entries in EN IEC 60335-2-111:2026.

The document is organized as:

• European foreword
• Modification to the Introduction
• Modifications to Clause 1, “Scope”
• Modification to Clause 7, “Marking and instructions”
• Modifications to annexes
• Modification to Bibliography

Annex	What it covers
Annex ZA	Normative references to international publications with corresponding European publications; it adds ISO 2439
Annex ZZA	Relationship with Directive 2014/35/EU
Annex ZZB	Relationship with Regulation (EU) 2023/1230
Annex ZZC	Relationship with Directive 2014/53/EU

What are the key requirements of SIST EN IEC 60335-2-111:2026/A11:2026?

The amendment mainly changes how the appliance is described, who must be considered in its foreseeable use, and what the instructions must tell the user. For manufacturers and compliance teams, the practical effect is that the safety wording and user information need to cover children, people with reduced capabilities, and domestic animals.

Scope and hazard coverage

Clause 1 replaces the scope wording so that the document deals with reasonably foreseeable hazards of intended use encountered by all persons and domestic animals in and around the home. In practice, safety assessment is not limited to the intended user alone; it also needs to consider common household exposure around the appliance.

Marking and instructions

Clause 7.12 replaces the instruction text with required safety statements. The instructions must state that persons, including children, with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, may use the appliance when supervised or instructed by a person responsible for their safety.

Clause 7.12 also requires instructions to say that children and domestic animals should be supervised so they do not play with the appliance, that the cord should not hang over the edge or counter when the appliance is left unattended, and that children shall not carry out cleaning or user maintenance. In practice, this affects the wording in the user manual and any safety notices supplied with the product.

Annex and reference updates

Annex ZA adds ISO 2439, Flexible cellular polymeric materials - Determination of hardness (indentation technique), to the normative references. Where the standard uses that reference, testing or material evaluation has to follow the cited method.

The amendment also states that the annexes of Part 1 and Part 2 apply with modifications and notes that further preparation is under way for the Part 1 annex changes. For users, this means the amended product standard must be applied together with the current Part 1 framework.

What terms does SIST EN IEC 60335-2-111:2026/A11:2026 define?

• electric ondol mattress with a non-flexible heated part - The product covered by Part 2-111, using a heated part that is not flexible.
• reasonably foreseeable hazards of intended use - The hazards that can be expected from normal use in a home environment.
• persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities - Users who may need supervision or instruction before using the appliance safely.
• domestic animals - Animals in the home environment that the scope now explicitly considers.
• Marking and instructions - The clause that controls the safety information and warnings supplied with the appliance.
• CENELEC members - The national electrotechnical committees that adopt the amendment as a national standard.

Who uses SIST EN IEC 60335-2-111:2026/A11:2026?

This amendment is used by manufacturers and design engineers of electric ondol mattress products, because it tells them how to write the scope, warnings and instructions. It is also used by test laboratories, certification bodies, quality managers and regulatory/compliance teams checking whether the product documentation and safety claims match the European requirements.

Buyers and technical specifiers use it when they need to confirm that a product belongs to this appliance category and that its instructions and safety information address the intended household use.

What changed in SIST EN IEC 60335-2-111:2026/A11:2026 from the previous edition?

With this amendment A11, EN IEC 60335-2-111:2019 is superseded. The amendment’s stated significant technical modification is to introduce requirements and instructions for children, people with disabilities and domestic animals.

It also:

• deletes the word “manufacturer's” from the Introduction
• replaces the scope wording in Clause 1
• replaces the Clause 7.12 instruction text
• adds ISO 2439 to Annex ZA
• adds several related IEC 60335-2 parts to the bibliography

Which standards are used with SIST EN IEC 60335-2-111:2026/A11:2026?

• EN IEC 60335-1:2023+A11:2023+A12:2026 - The general household appliance safety standard that provides the Part 1 framework.
• EN IEC 60335-2-111:2026 - The base product-specific standard that this amendment modifies.
• ISO 2439 - The added normative reference for indentation hardness testing of flexible cellular polymeric materials.
• IEC 60335-2-17, IEC 60335-2-30, IEC 60335-2-66, IEC 60335-2-71, IEC 60335-2-81, IEC 60335-2-96, IEC 60335-2-106 - Related appliance safety standards listed in the bibliography for cross-reference.

What does the SIST EN IEC 60335-2-111:2026/A11:2026 document contain?

This amendment is a focused change document rather than a full standard. Its body is built around clause-by-clause modifications to the Introduction, Clause 1, Clause 7.12, annexes and bibliography, plus the European foreword and the Annex ZA, ZZA, ZZB and ZZC sections.

It also records the CENELEC approval and the implementation dates for national adoption and withdrawal of conflicting standards.
