Appendix 5 Example of the EC type-approval mark

(a ≥ 12mm)

The device bearing the EC type-approval mark shown above is for a frontal protection system type-approved in Germany (e1) pursuant to this Directive (01) under the base approval number 1471.

The asterisk indicates that the frontal protection system was approved under the consideration, for the legform impactor test, allowed by paragraph 3.1.1.1 or 3.1.2.1 of Annex I. If this consideration is not granted by the approval authority the asterisk is replaced by a space.
