substance by weight at raw homogeneous materials level.
For Lead, PBB, and PBDE, there must be no more than

This symbol is new RED aligns the previous directive with the
New Legislative Framework for the marketing of products.
The revision takes account of the need for improved market
surveillance, in particular for the traceability obligations of
manufacturers, importers and distributors. It provides
improved instruments for market surveillance, such as the
possibility to require prior registration of radio equipment,
within those categories affected by low levels of compliance.
The Directive requires equipment to be constructed for
efcient use of the radio spectrum, as well as electromagnet-
ic compatibility, to avoid interference with terrestrial and
orbital communications.
