Gives the safety and ergonomic requirements and the corresponding test methods for auditory danger signals. Does not apply to verbal danger warnings. Special regulations such as those for a public disaster and public transport are not affected. Covers normative references, definitions, symbols, safety requirements, test methods, calculation of effective masked threshold and guide-lines for the design of auditory danger signals. Contains tables and figures.
