6.2 For gases which produce such effects and for which specific concentration limits do not yet appear in the approved supply list, concentration limits laid down in Table VIA, expressed as a volume/volume percentage, shall determine, where appropriate, the classification of the preparation.
The following symbol and risk phrases are assigned:
Carcinogenic categories 1 and 2: | T; R45 or R49 |
Carcinogenic category 3: | Xn; R40 |
Mutagenic categories 1 and 2: | T; R46 |
Mutagenic category 3: | Xn; R68 |
Toxic for reproduction fertility categories 1 and 2: | T; R60 |
Toxic for reproduction development categories 1 and 2: | T; R61 |
Toxic for reproduction fertility category 3: | Xn; R62 |
Toxic for reproduction development category 3: | Xn; R63 |

Mutagenic substances of category 1 or 2 with R46 | concentration ≥0.1% mutagenic R46 obligatory | |
Mutagenic substances of category 3 with R68(*) | concentration ≥1% mutagenic R68(*) obligatory | |
Substances “toxic for reproduction” of category 1 or 2 with R60 (fertility) | concentration ≥0.2% toxic for reproduction (fertility) R60 obligatory | |
Substances “toxic for reproduction” of category 3 with R62 (fertility) | concentration ≥1% toxic for reproduction (fertility) R62 obligatory | |
Substances “toxic for reproduction” of category 1 or 2 with R61 (development) | concentration ≥0.2% toxic for reproduction (development) R61 obligatory | |
Substances “toxic for reproduction” of category 3 with R63 (development) | concentration ≥1% toxic for reproduction (development) R63 obligatory |
