Note 1:

Generally the date of cessation of use will be the date of withdrawal (‘dow’), set by the European
Standardisation Organisation, but attention of users of these standards is drawn to the fact that
in certain exceptional cases this can be otherwise.

Note 2.1: The new (or amended) standard has the same scope as the superseded standard. On the date

stated, the superseded standard cannot be used any longer in the context of the directive.

Note 3:

In case of amendments, the referenced standard is EN CCCCC:YYYY, its previous amendments,
if any, and the new, quoted amendment. The superseded standard (column 3) therefore consists
of EN CCCCC:YYYY and its previous amendments, if any, but without the new quoted amend-
ment. On the date stated, the superseded standard cannot be used any longer in the context of
the directive.

Example: For EN 60704-2-3:2002, the following applies:
