The V720S-BC5D4 conforms to the following laws and standards that are in
force outside Japan.
1) European Standards (R&TTE Directive)
These products conform to the R&TTE Directive (Radio Equipment and
Telecommunication Terminal Equipment Directive), which was enforced in
April, 2000 concerning radio equipment.
• Radio Standard : EN300 330
• EMC Standard
• Safety
2) American Standard:
These products will conform to the Reported Standard (FCC 01-290), into
which the current Standard will be revised in FY 2002.They do not conform
to the current FCC Standard (FCC Part15 Subpart C).
• In connection with EC unification, eighteen European countries will integrate
their conventional safety standards into EN standards. When the EN
standards come into effect, they will apply as the unified European
standards in place of the conventional safety standards.
• EN standards are based on IEC standards. Therefore, machines that are
exported to Europe from Asia or North America must satisfy EN standards.
Otherwise, the machines must satisfy IEC standards if the machines do not
fall under EN standards.
• The CE marking is provided by EC Directives. A product bearing a CE
marking meets the safety standards specified by all relevant EC Directives.
If the product is a machine, it must satisfy the EC Machinery Directive,
Low-voltage Directive (LVD), and EMC requirements of the EC Directives.
Directives, if the product is a home electronics appliance or office machine.
Machines bearing CE markings can be freely exported to European
countries. In other words, a CE marking is the passport for export to Europe.
• EC Directives are provided for the purpose of European unification.
Approximately 300 EC Directives have been passed. EC Directives for
machines are called Machine Directives. According to the Machine
Directives (EC Directive Document number 89/392/EEC), machines
exported to Europe on and after January 1, 1995 must bear CE markings.
• EMC standards are for electro-magnetic compatibility. A machine must
satisfy the EMC requirements of EC directives by taking countermeasures
against EMI (electro-magnetic interference) and EMC (electro-magnetic
susceptibility).
• R&TTE Directive, which came into effect in April, 2000, includes the
requirement of LDV and EMC Directives in addition to radio standards.
