Information given in a manufacturer\u2019s catalogue may take the place of such an agreement.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>1.4<\/p>\n<p>Requirements for electromagnetic compatibility are not given, as accessories do not in themselves produce extraneous emissions, nor is their functioning affected by external emissions. Therefore no emission or immunity tests are necessary.<\/p>\n<p>It should be noted that accessories containing active electronic components, other than luminous indicating devices, may be susceptible to, or emit, electromagnetic interference.<\/p>\n<h4>PDF Catalog<\/h4>\n<table border=\"1px\" class=\"des-table\">\n<tr>\n<th>PDF Pages<\/th>\n<th>PDF
