For appliances intended to be used in vehicles or on board ships or aircraft, additional requirements may be necessary. For appliances intended to be used in tropical countries, special requirements may be necessary. Attention is drawn to the fact that in many countries additional requirements are specified by the national health authorities and the national authorities responsible for the protection of labour. ?I.S.M. frequency bands are the electromagnetic frequencies e stablished by international treaty for industrial, scientific and medical purposes. /
