A18. The maximum recommended yearly dose of 15 kJ/m2 (weighted according to the EAS) instead of 25 kJ/m2 (weighted according to the NMSC) is going to apply when the manufacturer calculates the exposure schedule. The manufacturer can then recommend a maximum number of minutes per year allowing clients to make an informed decision regarding the discretionary use of this device. This requirement will be part of the label information on the equipment at the moment of sale or resale.
