(2.1) The lift must be designed and constructed to ensure that the space in which the car travels is inaccessible except for maintenance or in emergencies. Before a person enters that space, normal use of the lift must be made impossible.
(2.2) The lift must be designed and constructed to prevent the risk of crushing when the car is in one of its extreme positions.
The objective will be achieved by means of free space or refuge beyond the extreme positions.
However, in specific cases, in affording Member States the possibility of giving prior approval, particularly in existing buildings, where this solution is impossible to fulfil, other appropriate means may be provided to avoid this risk.
(2.3) The landings at the entrance and exit of the car must be equipped with landing doors of adequate mechanical resistance for the conditions of use envisaged.
An interlocking device must prevent during normal operation:
starting movement of the car, whether or not deliberately activated, unless all landing doors are shut and locked,
the opening of a landing door when the car is still moving and outside a prescribed landing zone.
However, all landing movements with the doors open shall be allowed in specified zones on condition that the levelling speed is controlled.
