This Standard specifies methods for determining the sound pressure level range of auditory signal so that the users of consumer products, including elderly people with hearing loss which develops during ageing, can hear the signal properly in the presence of specific interfering sounds. When an auditory signal with a fixed sound level is used, the level shall be adjusted to fall in the range. When the sound level is controllable by the user, the level shall be variable to cover the entire range at the narrowest. Auditory signals, in this Standard, refer to sounds with a fixed frequency (also called beep sounds). Electronic chimes and voice guides are not included. NOTE It is also recommended that this document be used when variable frequency sounds or melodic sounds are used. This Standard is applicable to auditory signals which are heard in the same room where the product is used or in an adjacent room not entirely enclosed within walls (at approximate maximum distance of 4 m from the product). It is not applicable to auditory signals heard through a head receiver or earphones, or to those heard with the ear located near the sound source. This Standard does not specify the sound pressure level of auditory signals regulated by other statutes such as those for fire alarms, gas leakages, and crime prevention, nor does it specify auditory signals peculiar to a communication tool such as telephones.
