Generally the date of cessation of presumption of conformity 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.

Warning: As regards particle filters the filtering efficiency of which is exclusively or partially achieved by the use of materials based on non-woven electrically-charged fibres, this publication does not concern clauses 8.7.2.4, last sentence, 8.7.3.4, last sentence, and 10 of the standard, in respect of which there shall be no presumption of conformity with the basic health and safety requirements of Directive 89/686/EEC. This warning shall also be taken into account in the application of the following harmonised standards: EN 149:2001; EN 405:2001; EN 1827:1999; EN 12083:1998; EN 12941:1998; EN 12941:1998/A1:2003; EN 12942:1998; EN 12942:1998/A1:2002; EN 13274-7:2002.
